Notes
Founded in 1868 by Florentine Ariosto Jones, a Boston watchmaker, IWC has made the "Portuguese" its emblematic wristwatch. It was launched in the 1930s at the request of two Portuguese businessmen who were looking for a wristwatch with the same precision as a marine chronometer. The range has seen numerous improvements over time.
