    The new IWC booth at SIHH is striking; the architect called it an example of "classical modernism" -- just like the new Portuguese collection. But what early viewers failed to realize --it's a recreation of the design of IWC's new manufacturing facility, currently being built in Merishausertal on the outskirts of Schaffhausen!

    Here are some quick iPhone snapshots I took today, which shows this hopefully more clearly.

    Thanks Michael for this teaser...

    Agree, striking, look very classy. Cool that it's mimicking the design of new plant.

    See you Tuesday!

    Amazing indeed Michael. We saw some drawings of the new building a few months ago and this booth seems to capture that spirit very well!

    Spot on Bill - the stand was pure class, and much better than the last few years' "themed" layouts in my humble opinion.
