Sidérale Scafusia

To be honest, you probably aren’t going to be in the market for this member of the Portugieser family but that doesn’t mean you can’t marvel at it, because it really is IWC putting all its toys into one watch.

Along with a constant-force tourbillon and 96-hour power reserve, it also shows sidereal time – time reckoned from the motion of the earth in relation to other distant stars rather than the Sun. However, it’s the reverse that’s really special.

Using a location specified by the owner, IWC makes a rotating night-sky disc showing more than 500 stars and constellations correlating to what would be seen in real life. Making the necessary allowances for summer time and winter time, the watch also displays the times of sunrise and sunset, sidereal time and a perpetual calendar with the leap years. It is less a watch and more a work of art.
