====== IWC Ingenieur Mercedes AMG ======

{{wst>author|[[Foskett, Stephen|Stephen Foskett]] ([[https://grail-watch.com/|Grail Watch]])}}

[[IWC]] has a long-running partnership with the [[Mercedes-AMG|AMG division of Mercedes-Benz]] (now known as Mercedes-AMG), which has resulted in a series of timepieces under the [[IWC Ingenieur]] brand. The agreement began with the AMG performance car division in [[2004]], was transferred to the Formula One team in [[2010]], and was renewed in [[2014]] through [[2018]].

===== Watch Models =====
Almost all IWC AMG watches feature exotic titanium or ceramic cases and AMG lettering on the case back. Most are based on normal-production IWC Ingenieur models, with some of those being called "AMG" models even though they are not technically part of this line.

In [[2013]], IWC redesigned the entire Ingenieur line around the Mercedes-AMG partnership, making all models up to the [[2017]] refresh technically part of this line. Of these, Ref. 3785 is notable in that it features two models (the "Racer" and "Silberpfeil") which directly reference Mercedes-Benz models but feature steel cases and no Mercedes or AMG logos.
