They're just plastic clocks that look like and have the blessing of IWC... unfortunately they aren't actual IWC timepieces otherwise that would be about $5k of watch stuck in your dash (and you'd have to wind it!).

This was the same thing on my c450.

But I actually didn't get a IWC branded clock - it was like they ran out of inventory or something.

It's the same clock. Just different logo. It's actually quite 'cheapie' looking if you put a real IWC next to it.

Sadness, must have ran out of supplies again.

*Off Topic* Do you have power folding mirrors? And what's your build date.

My dealer told me IWC is only on 63's. Must be a website error as usual.
