    Great video! Chris is so energetic and a great host. I’ve been fortunate to spend many hours in that manufacturer with Chris on tours and he is really just like this with customers and collectors.

    Watching Chris on video (or if you’re lucky, meet him in person), makes you realize that IWC has been blessed with that rare occurrence where the right guy made it into the top job. Perfect fit and IWC is making huge strides! Love this brand.👍

      And they’ve become way, way cooler too.

    Fantastic to see, what seems to be full in-house production. Compared to other swizz watch makers factory tours, that shows only assembly of watches, and robots picking up parts from stock. From where and by whom the parts are made is not shown.

    They do make very good watches, but they are currently experiencing declining sales, some of the watches are overpriced. The movement in the Mark XX And the igenour are proof of this. if you are going to sell in the mainstream like omega or Rolex or longines- this is hard.

    Honestly, was I supposed to be watching the camera men "goofing off" or the other two guys? It was so distracting I stopped watching and figured IWC was a bit of a gimmick. Not serious. Good to have fun, and I get that, but I could do without the constant distraction. Maybe keep the camera men out of the shots in the future. What was the topic of the video again?

    • @marcusflack1523
      @marcusflack1523 Месяц назад
