Since 1903, the “Probus Scafusia” seal has embodied IWC Schaffhausen’s uncompromising standards for the quality and longevity of its products.
Today, the manufacturer renews this promise of excellence to its customers by introducing the “My IWC” programme, which includes an offer to extend the International Limited Warranty from two to eight years.
From now on, every buyer of an IWC watch can join the programme, which is also available retroactively. Watch enthusiasts who have purchased their IWC watch within the last two years, and are still covered by the original warranty, can also register. Members of the programme enjoy additional benefits such as access to extra services and early information about new products and events.
When Florentine Ariosto Jones founded IWC Schaffhausen more than 150 years ago, he skilfully combined advanced manufacturing methods from the American watch industry with the traditional craftsmanship of Swiss watchmakers. Thanks to this unique engineering approach, IWC’s level of industrialisation was high from the outset. The so-called Jones calibres were extremely precise, robust and durable pocket watch movements. With the “Probus Scafusia” seal, the Swiss watch manufacturer’s uncompromising quest for precision and reliability was given an official designation in 1903. The Latin motto, which translates as “Solid Craftsmanship from Schaffhausen”, was coined by IWC’s then-director Johannes Rauschenbach-Schenk. Today, it is engraved on the crown or rotor of every IWC Schaffhausen watch.
