IWC - Big Ingenieur Edition Zinédine Zidane
The Big Ingenieur Edition Zinédine Zidane
IWC underlined its partnership with the footbal player Zinédine Zidane with a new special edition. The Big Ingenieur Zinédine Zidane Edition was dedicated to the outstanding footballing personality who, on this occasion, has been personally involved in the design of this limited to a worldwide edition of 500 watches.
Whereas IWC Schaffhausen retained the colours of the French national team for the first Edition Zinédine Zidane, the new Big Ingenieur Edition Zinédine Zidane reflects the individual taste of the footballer. Accordingly, it features a dark brown dial. The Arabic numeral “10†stands out in a bright red colour. The engraved name of the former football star can be seen on the winding rotor through the transparent sapphire-glass back. The medallion also bears a figure “10†– the number which Zidane wore on his shirt in the French national team for many years and with which he led the “Équipe Tricolore†to numerous victories. And, of course, to the World Cup crown in 1998.

IWC Schaffhausen honours Jacques Yves Cousteau on his 100th birthday
IWC Aquatimer Chronograph Edition Jacques-Yves Cousteau Ref. IW376706
11 June 2010 marks the 100th birthday of Jacques-Yves Cousteau, the man that like no other individual in the 20th century has promoted and influenced research of the world’s oceans.
Swiss watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen, partner and sponsor of the Cousteau Society for many years, is proud to dedicate a fifth special edition to “Le Commandant†on this historic anniversary: the Aquatimer Chronograph Edition Jacques-Yves Cousteau.
The watch is water resistant to 1,200 meters and features an impressive interchangeable strap system that makes removing and replacing the strap very easy – without any tools required. Inside the watch is an IWC automatic chronograph movement. While the piece isn’t a limited edition per se, IWC classifies it as a “special editionâ€, what means that very few will be made, but without a specific number.
