Watches & Wonders 2024 Featured Model 2IWC SCHAFFHAUSEN 'Portuguese Eternal Calendar'

Last year at Watches & Wonders, IWC Schaffhausen made a big splash with its new Ingenieur IWC Schaffhausen. This year, an evolved version of the ” Portuguese Eternal Calendar ” with an “almost perpetual” calendar was unveiled. In addition to accurately determining the difference in the number of days in each month and the leap day that appears every four years, the new Portuguese Eternal Calendar also satisfies the complicated leap year irregularities of the ” Gregorian Calendar,” which automatically skips leap years only three times in four centuries. The accuracy of the moon phase has also been enhanced by the use of a newly developed reduction gear, so that the moon phases on this double moon phase display will only be off by one day in a whopping 45 million years. Although there will come a time in the tremendously distant future when it will be out of phase, it is safe to say that it will ” never go out of phase forever “.
