    ...dear friends, I had the chance to join the IWC- flight over the Zurich and Luzern- lakes with the 1939 constructed historic airplane "Tante Ju". There are just 6 of them worldwide left and under operation (out of approx. 5.000 in WWII). And 4 out theses 6 are based at Dübendorf/ Zurich- area. One sponsored by our passion- brand IWC. Please just enjoy the pictures. We had a fantastic time together. Thanks to Fritz from the Zurich and Schaffhausen- IWC- boutiques and his marvelous team for that unforgettable day...there is never bad weather! Best, Harald

    What a great time for you- I also had this wonderful experience a while back, and the weather was also perfect.
