F1 sponsorship and product placement
I am watching the end of the F1 race where we all know that Rolex is the official timekeeper. It was VERY interesting to see on the Mercedes team:
1. There is an IWC wrist watch drawn/stamped/printed on the driver's left glove, clearly visible during the race. 2. Mercedes drivers won 1 and 2, bot were given IWC watches as they took their gear off just prior to taking the podium. At least to me, first time I see this, I liked the 'glove' thing. Sunday morning here.....saludos! |

pretty sure the whole pit crew are fully IWC'd up. most mechanics are wearing Ingenieur Chronographs. I do like the Big Pilot on the driving gloves, great piece of marketing to millions of viewers.

yes, that was a great race, came really down to the wire in the final minutes...
IWC signed a 3 year agreement with Mercedes that took effect January 1st. 2013...
