How Schaffhausen Stops Watch Smuggling

Do not underestimate the Schaffhauser police!
What you see is a multi purpose boat with a small jeep on it that can ride on land and float on the Rhine. What you would not expect is that the vehicle that looks like a cabin is on the same time the Schaffhauser submarine, hired by IWC from the police to test the current aquatimers models. When IWC was producing the Ocean 2000, test were done in the Pacific. Due to budget priorities, a new solution was found. There is a rumour that sometimes the IWC divers are not as waterproof as they used to be.
