A tour of the Omega factory would be interesting. I'd love to know more about how the coaxial escapement was challenging to mass produce and how they did it. All I know is an old interview with George Daniels where he touches on the subject. Apparently he tried Patek first but then Omega took a passing interest.

Great video! I've always liked IWC watches and now I like them even more. Looks like a great time and the best part, you got to assemble a movement... which is right up my alley as a hobbyist.

It is always amazing that a watch can be designed & manufactured by a person from parts that keeps accurate time! It does make me awestruck! Love to see Adrian share his expertise to compare IWC to Rolex for specific models.

What a treat to see some of the IWC workings. These are the kind of videos I geek out on. I reminds me of when I experienced a tour of the Gibson Guitar factory and seeing how they put love into every piece. I also love the fact they have dedicated people representing Aust/NZ. Every brand should do the same.

Absolutely love IWC. I learned about IWC being originally founded in Boston when an I went to an IWC Boutique in Boston (because I am a native Bostonian and currently live here). I bought the Pilot's Chronograph 41 with the racing green dial back in January 2022 and it is absolutely killer. Not enough coverage of that watch on youtube, would love to see you do a video of it if you can!

This is the reason why I (together with a few hundred of thousands of watch aficionados) love your channel. It is genuine, it is honest, it reflects your opinios or change of opinions about things that you see, study and understand better. Maybe I have been brainwashed too, but I will probably start looking at IWC with a different perspective than before.

This is the kind of video that win the fans over and attract new followings to the brand. It absolutely worked on me when you made the same video for Tudor. And now that I know more closely about IWC and their production process (thanks to you and this video), I must say I like the brand more than ever.

I love IWC.. classy.. beautiful and a total icon. And your correct, the best part of a watch is more often than not the machine that you cant see.

I have 3 IWC watches and plan to add a specific fourth one. I would love to visit the headquarters one day.

This was great. Thank you, Adrian. My father has a very old IWC that he bought in Zürich, it’s one of the most beautiful watches I’ve ever seen.

Thanks for sharing the tour. Picked up a new black dial Ingenieur last weekend so the timing of your video was great. Enjoy the channel and the AET content as well.

Got my first bark & Jack NATO strap (ribbed green) after resisting for many years. Very nice strap. Glad you're back at it Adrian!

It's still amazing of the intracensy involved and the human touch making each piece. It's a truly brilliant ballet of workmanship

Love IWC! My favorite watch brand. Thanks for taking us with you on the tour. What watch were you wearing- Mark XX? It looked great on your wrist. Until you actually put their watches on your wrist you don’t realize how much of a quality, masculine watch brand they really are. Again thank you!

I want an IWC Spitfire soooo bad, and this video only reinforces that. Neat inside look at the factory!
