Thank you, we are proud to see this fine company and thought out growth strategy, the products these fine time pieces are so nice to see, hold and feel. Nice to be here along with you. Machine shop is our favorite part here, two watchmakers in the high-desert of California, Lance & Patrick.
IWC is one of great brands and quality of products. To watch the CEO talking about the high end quality production, precision in the process, best materials, etc.. with me cannot help but notice the lack of precision of his tie position really annoying to my eye.. But then again IWC watches are among the bests.
What's funny is back in the 90s IWC was considered a superior watch to Brightling and on par with Rolex but if you look what an IWC cost now are comparable Breitling is $10,000 where an IWC is $67,000 and a comparable Rolex is $20,000 so I WC didn't get greedy even though it's a more significant watch than breitling and buy mini considered higher end it's less money than breitling the reverse of what used to be
Very nice video. You do the best watch video content on youtube as of now imho. But can we now have an actual walkthrough and not just marleting talk of the ceo and mr knoop
Nice building. Tribute to 3705 is nice. Still very thick. Very expensive. Do I buy this tribute, or do I buy a Rolex. This price will result in people going Rolex. At this thickness (15,3 mm) and price (11.9 USD) people will go Rolex instead. I love this tribute but its just too thick for me at this price. Maybe Ill change my mind but not today.
41mm top gun chrono msrp almost 10k, but with discount it is possible to get up to 8k. Nevertheless, there are main issue related to ceramic case and it scratchiness.
@@omegaknight01 pretty lame argument to be honest. A bit of a sweeping generalisation as well. How do you know what his resume is from looking at his lack of wrinkles?
@@omegaknight01 do you know for sure he hasn’t helped a previous company turn their brand image around? Maybe he piloted them in a new direction that’s made the company 10 of millions in the process. I’m certainly impressed you can tell he isn’t worthy of the position due to being younger then your perceived age bracket that a CEO should fall into…
Nice to see this new place. I remember the old building, as I grew up about 5 minutes from there...
Beautifuel House, beautifuel watches: IWC is the best .....

Well done. 8 years is fantastic.

I know. I am flawed ! I have been under the spell of IWC Pilot watches for several decades ! And there is no way out !
Impresive.
Please bring back the 3705! I'd love a 39mm ceramic pilot's chronograph.

Great video. Thanks for it
Need a 40mm or under pilot perpetual calendar
So are they opening the facility for normal visitors like watch enthusiast like me. Is it possible to fix an appointment of the visit?
So when you pay 6-7000 for a watch you know why

@@unnamedhero5111 IWCs black ceramic scratches to black since it is not surface coated black but full black material.
@@bertraminc9412 idk why IWC didn't use shiny ceramic case as they used in Miramar edition, some really strange decisions, imho.
@@unnamedhero5111 I did buy the tribute. Last one in US inventory according to IWC USA. It's nice and I haven't really scratched it yet.
CEO is too young for that positions.
He or his family know the right people
Genuinely curious as to why age has a bearing on a persons ability to be CEO of a company?
@@Mac_F87
Because he doesn't have enough experience for that position. It is created with age.
