AS PART OF ITS PARTNERSHIP with the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team, IWC has introduced the racing team's first official watches.

At last year's Las Vegas Grand Prix, the watchmaker unveiled the IWC Pilot's Watch Performance Chronograph 41 Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team and the IWC Pilot's Watch Performance Chronograph 41 AMG. Notably, Lewis Hamilton sported the former when he won the British Grand Prix on home soil, and again when he took to the podium for the Belgian Grand Prix.

Going by the team's performance for the second half of this year's season, the watch appears to be a harbinger of good luck.

Or perhaps it's the tachymeter.
