Christoph is the CEO of IWC Schaffhausen, where he blends creative design sensibility with strategic leadership to steer one of Switzerland’s premier luxury watchmakers. Originally from Germany, he studied interior design in England and Switzerland before first collaborating with IWC in 2006 to design its museum.

As CEO, Christophe has focused on honoring IWC’s heritage while driving innovation and sustainability, and he has overseen the brand’s growing digital presence. His tenure has seen significant achievements, including IWC winning the prestigious “Aiguille d’Or” at the 2024 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. Outside the world of watchmaking, Christoph is passionate about cycling and architecture—interests that reflect the same precision and design ethos central to IWC’s philosophy.

On this episode, Mo dives into an honest and thought-provoking conversation with Christoph, exploring where he envisions taking IWC next, what challenges weigh on his mind, and whether he feels truly fulfilled at this point in his life.
