The Pilot's Watch Chronograph Edition "The Last Flight" has been designed to commemorate 70 years since the tragic death of celebrated writer and pilot Antoine de Saint-Exupery. The sale of the watch will take place during Sotheby's auction of Important Watches on 11 November 2014, and all the proceeds will benefit the Antoine de Saint-Exupery Youth Foundation, dedicated to supporting young people around the world. The fund will help to build a library for young patients in the Hospital Pequeno Príncipe in Curitiba, Brazil's largest children's hospital.

The IWC Pilot's Watch Chronograph Edition "The Last Flight" (Ref. IW388005) number 01 out of 17 pieces - features a silicon nitride ceramic case with a special engraving goes under the hammer, a brown dial and a calfskin strap in the same colour, echoing the tobacco colour of the pilot's flying suit. The crown, buttons and case back are in platinum.

Georges Kern, IWC Schaffhausen's CEO, commented: "Last year's auctioning of a Big Pilot's Watch Perpetual Calendar Edition "Le Petit Prince" generated a breathtaking CHF 173'000 that was channeled towards the construction of a school with a library in Cambodia, a project brought to life by the Antoine de Saint-Exupery Youth Foundation. We would like to continue our support of this charitable organization with the auctioning of another Special Edition timepiece: the Pilot's Watch Chronograph Edition "The Last Flight" in platinum, with an exquisite engraving on the case back in memory of Antoine de Saint-Exupery. As a globally successful company with a b commitment to social responsibility, we are proud to have found a partner in the Saint-Exupery Youth Foundation which relies on a vast international network and does incredible work for disadvantaged children with its local projects."

WORLDTEMPUS - 2 September 2011
With the brand-new Siderale Scafusia, it can well be said that IWC is celebrating the phenomenon of time.
This company generally known for its ultra-reliable pilot-style chronographs yesterday introduced its most complicated timepiece to date. Not only did IWC's astute engineering team complete the mechanics within the extraordinary space of ten years, but the company wisely involved a cerebral research professor of astrophysics and cosmology to provide a soul for the mechanically beating - and jumping - heart of this masterpiece.
Professor Ben Moore is the savant in question. Occupying the same chair at the University of Zurich's Institute for Theoretical Physics that Albert Einstein did in the early 1900s, this modern-day explorer of time and space provided the astronomical knowledge needed to complete the personalized celestial charts found on the backside of the Siderale Scafusia. This "soul" side of the watch also includes scales encircling the star charts providing information on the date and year (perpetual calendar), the "star" (sidereal) time that is also shown on the front of the watch within a small subdial fittingly found right at 12 o'clock as well as daylight savings time. Moore brought more to the table than just his tables: he adds a quirky theoretical element that not only explains the raison d'être of sidereal time - astronomers need to use it in their work - but also combines the studies of astronomy, cosmology and astrophysics to form very tangible questions that lurk in the back of nearly every human being's mind: where did we come from and where are we going?
Heart and soul
If the sidereal elements are the Siderale Scafusia's soul, then its exceptional caged escapement in the form of a tourbillon is certainly its beating heart. The original premise of this timepiece at its conception in 2001, a brand-new constant force tourbillon dominates the left side of the timepiece's dial. Its central element is an unusually large 13 mm balance wheel, making it awfully stable, which fits neatly into the 15.8 mm tourbillon cage. The remontoir providing constant force comprises a couple of extra parts, none of which are the usual simple spring found in a remontoir. Here, two bridges, a lever, and an unusual wheel IWC calls the "stop wheel" perform the service.
Perhaps most eye-catching of all, however, is the jumping - almost deadbeat - motion of the entire cage and its contents, which also move the small second hand attached to the top of the cage's bridge. This jumping motion is really a "stop and go" because the remontoir takes the escapement and tourbillon out of the direct flow of energy. The energy gets stored up in the remontoir temporarily and is released precisely once a second. This keeps the energy constant and provides the source of the attractive motion of the cage.
Additionally, the constant force tourbillon contains two components that have never been used in this fashion before. Created by Microworks of Germany, which is the commercial outlet of the KIT Forschungszentrum of Karlsruhe, a cam used in the constant force assembly is made of LIGA-processed nickel-cobalt. Perhaps even more impressive, the pallet lever and fork of the escapement is created as one piece in LIGA hard gold.
"We need very precisely manufactured components for this," said Thomas Gäumann, IWC's R&D department head for movements. "For this reason we utilize two components created by the x-ray LIGA process, which can be manufactured within tolerances of just a few thousandths of a millimeter."

Twilight time
In addition to the time, sidereal time, star chart and perpetual calendar, this timepiece also displays the times of sunrise, sunset, and twilight - the latter an important feature for astronomers, and here depicted by the celestial chart changing color along with the real-time changes happening in the sky. This is accomplished with the use of colored, transparent disks.
A classic IWC Portuguese from the front, it measures a very wearable 46 mm in diameter. Product group manager Mario Klein explained that the case height of 17.5 mm was the deliberate result of bringing the Siderale Scafusia's balled complication down to a wearable critical mass. A feat of engineering, the Siderale Scafusia also boasts easy operation of all displays using the crown and two recessed pushers. Hand-wound Caliber 94900 boasts 96 hours (4 days) of power reserve, during the first two of which Klein guarantees constant force.
At a price of 750,000 Swiss francs, board of director spokesman Hannes Pantli only expects to sell these masterpieces to dedicated collectors, and they will only be completed upon order. Once the connoisseur in question has ordered his or her very own Siderale Scafusia, he or she can expect to wait a full year to receive it. However, upon receiving it, it will not only be personally handed over by Pantli, but it will also have been customized to the individual wishes of the client, who can choose from more than 200 design options.
With the introduction of the Siderale Scafusia, IWC celebrates both its powerful place within the watch industry and life itself. As astrophysicist Moore explains, astronomy has shown that we came from nothing billions of years ago and a billion years from now we will return right to nothing. The Siderale Scafusia and Moore therefore project one single message: Carpe Diem.

WORLDTEMPUS - 4 February 2011"Daring, incredible, exciting!" Marketing director Christine Louvet positively spewed descriptive buzzwords as she presented the new products issuing from Geneva-based watch company Roger Dubuis. This brand saw the light of day in 1996 when Portuguese entrepreneur Carlos Dias and extraordinary watchmaker Roger Dubuis created their first two watches, which were christened Hommage and Sympathie.
Fast forward to 2011. Neither the man behind the name nor the man behind the money is still with the company the two created. Roger Dubuis - the brand - is now owned by Richemont and in the midst of a radical makeover designed to streamline the 15 in-house movements as well as the many, many references called to life during the company's highly productive 16 years.
Louvet also underlined, "It is important for us to improve our relationship to our clients," and, "quality has been priority number one since the Richemont takeover." These remarks clearly illustrate the issues that had cast a shadow over the Roger Dubuis brand in the last years of Dias's ownership.
Casino and Chesterfield
At SIHH 2011, Louvet's "daring, incredible, and exciting" lines were transformed into a brand-new collection called La Monegasque. This name was inspired by the Lilliputian state of Monaco and its "daring" and "exciting" James Bond world of thrilling casino play.
La Monegasque's case shape resembles the very first timepiece that left Roger Dubuis's Geneva premises in 1996, Sympathie. The new dials, layout, and functions are, however, toned down in comparison to the creative craziness that former owner Dias clearly preferred. The new management, for the moment under the auspices of IWC CEO Georges Kern, is already making its mark. As highly in evidence at the IWC and Baume & Mercier booths, Kern has taken to "telling stories" with his brands in 2011 - with Roger Dubuis's obviously taking place in southern France.
The La Monegasque line encompasses three models in stainless steel or gold: a 42-millimeter time-only with small seconds, a 44-millimeter chronograph (with a 44-millimeter perpetual version), and a limited edition 44-milimeter chronograph called Big Number that boasts a wonderful, thick strap inspired by Chesterfield furniture by Italian shoemaker Santoni.
Because the distinct green-and-red roulette design is only utilized on the limited edition chronograph La Monegasque Big Number, some visitors to the booth were left wondering why Monaco and its world of casino was the brand's main theme. Indeed, the "story" is the means to the end here, and it is this debonair, thrill-seeking motif that the brand is now striving to add to the wristwatches' essence from the outside.
Some friendly help
The La Monegasque line was designed by 41-year-old Lionel Favre in collaboration with IWC's chief designer, Christian Knoop. "Under the supervision of Georges Kern, we created the Monegasque collection in less than nine months, concentrating on dial design," smiles Favre as he remembers how fast they worked. Speaking to Knoop later that week, it was confirmed that he also truly enjoyed working on Roger Dubuis's new products, agreeing with Favre's enthusiastic take.
Thrill-seeking design
Was the name of the new collection perhaps decided upon to merely to suck up to European wealth by using the name of the popular gaming state? Favre reply is not surprising, "Yes and no. Gaming is popular all over the world, not least in Asia. Traditional gambling is thrill-seeking to everybody."
Naturally, Favre is correct. Think of the former Portuguese colonial island Macau, just off the coast of central Hong Kong. This hotspot for many game watch aficionados is the perfect place to purchase the next luxury timepiece after the ball has landed on a lucky number.

Lucky numbers
Speaking of numbers, Roger Dubuis will still offer editions of 28, 88 and 128 pieces. According to Asian belief, the lucky number 8 stands for prosperity. Other models are will have non-limited production.
Numbers in terms of pricing range from 14,000-67,000 Swiss francs, with the latter the gold perpetual calendar.
