    Thanking David Seyffer and the staff from IWC Russia some exclusive pieces from Schaffhausen came to Moscow last week and stay in the boutique till February. It's first time when IWC shows any vintage models in Russia.
    Today I visited boutique and made some photos:

    Thanks for the great pictures.
    Am I correct about IWC having a very high reputation among the ruling communist party in the 60's and 70's ?

    I heard actually that somebody from IWC came to Moscow that time and found IWC watch on the wrist of some from the top, despite the watches were not delivered to Soviet Union. But I didn't see any photos. That time I believe most of them weared Pobeda, Poljot or other local brands.
    At the same time I've seen a lot of photos of Gorbachev with Omega Constellation))

    Roman, I believe it is a great initiative to show IWC masterpieces outside David's beautiful museum. It is the first step to make the vintage watches immortal and world famous. You know what happened to art pieces from van Gogh and Picasso. And you know what might happen to their value.
    Kind regards,
    Adrian,

    Took some of my watches for the special event tonight in the boutique for the collectors, clients etc. To fill some missed links))
    It's really pity that David didn't find the time to come and join us.
