 International Watch Co, also known as IWC, is a high-end Swiss watch manufacturer located in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. It was Founded by an American engineer in Schaffhausen, Switzerland in 1868, the International Watch Company has expanded far beyond its original specialty of chronometry. Iwc Watches have grown to include expert pilot and divers watches as well as classic and timeless watch styles. IWC watches are technically exacting, innovative and reliable. IWC has perfected the art of watchmaking, making them a strong contender in the luxury watch market. 
The history of IWC watches dates back to 1868 when an American by the name of Florentine Ariosto Jones founded a watch factory in Switzerland. After meeting Johann Heinrich Moser in 1850, the two teamed up to lay the foundations for the first and only watch manufacturers in north-eastern Switzerland. The International Watch CO. was up and running in Schaffhausen.
It was not until 1885 that the first digital watch for IWC was created, based on a patent from an Austrian named Pallweber. Despite the simplicity the watch maintained, it was a work of genius. To this day the work of the Pallweber's is extremely rare and a large collector's item.
From 1895 to 1900 IWC saw major sales increases all around. In Germany, the company saw an increase from 553,500 to 805,000 francs. Russia went from a measly 29,400 to an incredible 182,300 francs. These remarkable sales increases were due largely to the acumen of the company's management as well as the incredible staff of employees.
A change of direction was necessary and this led to the adoption of a number of measures. In order to survive, IWC, under the leadership of Director and CEO Otto Heller, built up a line of high-quality pocket watches, and, apart from setting up its own modern wristwatch and case manufacturing facilities, began working closely with Ferdinand A. Porsche as an external designer. In addition, IWC pioneered new watchmaking technologies, notably the first titanium bracelets, developed in 1978.
Today the company continues to hold strong with innovative watches and remarkable services. In 2001, IWC watches went online with the Collectors forum. This was the first brand-related forum for fans of fine watchmaking. Sadly, the company also saw the death of Gunter Blumlein in 2001, who was the man that led IWC out of the Swiss watchmaking crisis of the 1970's. Despite this, the company has never been stronger and continues its excellence in crafting watches through an incredible team. Four times a year, IWC publishes a customer magazine entitled, Iwc Watches International. This publication is available in German, French and English, and includes stories, articles and features about IWC.
