IWC Schaffhausen has announced the release of the Limited
Edition Ingenieur Automatic from the Vintage collection, a specially created
watch to benefit the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation. This is the fifth time
IWC Schaffhausen has committed to creating a special edition watch for the
foundation, underscoring the luxury watch manufacturer’s commitment to
aiding disadvantaged children the world over.

This year’s Ingenieur Automatic Edition Laureus Sport For
Good Foundation in stainless steel is finished with a gorgeous sky-blue dial is
limited to 1,000 specimens. In keeping with a time-honored tradition, IWC
Schaffhausen organized a worldwide children’s drawing competition. The winning
design was engraved on the back of the watch. This year, the jury chose an
illustration by eight year-old Sohel Abrar Khan from Mumbai, who is part of the
Magic Bus project. Magic Bus, supported by the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation, provides a safe and conducive outdoor
education for impoverished children throughout India,
including children from the Bombay Port Trust slum in Mumbai, one of the
world’s poorest communities.

The young winner of this year’s drawing competition
interpreted the theme of the competition, “Time for Unity”, with a picture
depicting youths playing a game of football. The cheerful engraving also serves
as a poignant reminder that a portion of the sale proceeds will be used to help
disadvantaged children in some of the world’s problem regions.

The Ingenieur Automatic Edition Laureus Sport For Good
Foundation is powered by the IWC-manufactured 80111 caliber, with a Pellaton
winding system and an integrated shock absorption system. Thanks to a screw-in
crown, the robust timepiece is water-resistant and equipped for the exacting
demands of present-day life. A beautiful watch for a beautiful cause—no better, uh,
time for social responsibility.
