IWC underlined its partnership with the footbal player Zinédine Zidane with a new special edition. The Big Ingenieur Zinédine Zidane Edition was dedicated to the outstanding footballing personality who, on this occasion, has been personally involved in the design of this limited to a worldwide edition of 500 watches.

Whereas IWC Schaffhausen retained the colours of the French national team for the first Edition Zinédine Zidane, the new Big Ingenieur Edition Zinédine Zidane reflects the individual taste of the footballer. Accordingly, it features a dark brown dial. The Arabic numeral “10” stands out in a bright red colour. The engraved name of the former football star can be seen on the winding rotor through the transparent sapphire-glass back. The medallion also bears a figure “10” – the number which Zidane wore on his shirt in the French national team for many years and with which he led the “équipe Tricolore” to numerous victories. And, of course, to the World Cup crown in 1998.
