The watch was called the Grand Complication. Some purists contended that the watch was not a true grand complication because its chronograph was not of the split-seconds variety. A genuine grand complication, they argued, must have a perpetual calendar, minute repeater and a split-seconds chronograph. In 1993, IWC brought out a watch that did have these three complications (plus a tourbillon for good measure). It was called Il Destriero Scafusia.

The watch was made by the great British watchmaker Thomas Mudge (1715 to 1794). Completed in 1759, and incorporating a new type of escapement that was the forerunner of virtually every escapement used in watches today, the watch became known as “the Queen’s watch.” The noted watch historian Cedric Jagger notes that it has often been called “the most famous watch in the world.”

Although there had been other attempts to invent self-winding systems, which, like Perrelet’s made use of an oscillating weight, it was Perrelet (1729 to 1826) who actually succeeded. He in fact experimented with two types of winding systems, one with a weight that moved back and forth, and the other with a rotor that spun around an axis, much like the winding rotors on today’s automatic watches. The former worked better than the latter (Abraham-Louis Breguet used a similar device in his perpetuelle watches). That’s because pocketwatches, which were of course the only type of watches used in Perrelet’s day, did not experience enough motion to make the rotor spin with sufficient frequency.
