Autumn 2013
IWC Schaffhausen has presented the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Edition “Solidarity with Beirut”, in collaboration with Beirut-based NGO Nusaned, supporting those affected by the Beirut blast on August 4, 2020.
The watch is available exclusively in Lebanon and the UAE, with proceeds from the sales of the watch going to Nusaned’s Beirut Emergency Response Plan.
The special design, limited to 30 pieces worldwide, features a stainless-steel case, a spectacular green dial and a unique back engraving of a cedar tree, as seen on the flag of Lebanon, symbolising eternity and peace.
Nusaned is working tirelessly to help Beirut recover through its Goods In Need and Roofs That Shield programmes by providing families with immediate aid and rebuilding destroyed homes and shops.
“The global IWC Schaffhausen family stands together with Lebanon during these challenging times, and we truly believe that our contribution to Nusaned helps those in need and accelerates the restoration of the beautiful city of Beirut. With the launch of the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Edition “Solidarity with Beirut”, we aim to support the immediate needs of the population in impacted areas. Our hearts are with the people of Lebanon, and we hope that together with the support of the rest of the world, we can stay strong and help rebuild a better future,” said Christoph Grainger-Herr, CEO of IWC Schaffhausen.
The Pilot’s Watch Chronograph Edition “Solidarity with Beirut” will be available exclusively at the IWC boutiques in The Dubai Mall, The Galleria Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi and Beirut Souks and will retail at $5,780.
