Today we speak to Dr Lorenz Brunner, the Farther of Ceratanium, about materials technology at IWC Schaffhausen. And IWC is a leader in the field of ceramics. The brand uses ceramic in cases, of course, but is also the only maker to serially produce ceramic movement components. We also find out about the difficulty and nuance involved in getting coloured ceramic just right and finding the balance between materials inspiring design and vice versa. On top of that, Andy and Felix chat about the return of TAG Heuer’s Monaco Dark Lord and their return to IRL events. The episode is sponsored by IWC, discover more via IWC.com or contact your nearest IWC boutique. Artem Straps has just updated their slim Loop-Less Sailcloth— check it out here.
