Since he became Creative Director back in 2008, Christian Knoop has been responsible for the subtle and sophisticated task of shepherding IWC’s design direction into a new era. Designers, as Knoop says, see the world differently, viewing the world through a discerning lens of function and form. We spoke to Knoop in the midst of Watches & Wonders about the challenges of updating iconic designs, the need to stay relevant while resisting trends and his favourite releases so far.
