Mercedes-Benz  enjoys an excellent reputation, particularly in the field of safety.  Many pioneering technical innovations that are standard automotive features  today  were  first seen in a Mercedes-Benz car. The Mercedes-Benz engineers  will  in  future consistently reinvent the automobile – with the same  enthusiasm  and innovation as Gottlieb Daimler and Carl Benz in 1886.

Moreover,  Mercedes-Benz is actively supporting in professional and amateur sport  for  decades  and has become established as a dependable partner  in the fields of motor sport, football, golf, horse riding and tennis.

For  more  than 140 years, IWC Schaffhausen has been producing precision products  of complex functionality and outstanding user-friendliness for watch  connoisseurs  who  expect  more from their watch than an accurate display.  Since  its foundation in 1868, the International Watch Company has  built  up a reputation as a long-established Swiss watchmaking firm with  a  passion  for  inventions,  innovative  solutions  and technical refinements.  Today the brand is more successful than at any time in its history.  IWC  uses  this  strength  in  a programme of corporate social responsibility  initiatives  at  home  and abroad.  In 2005, IWC entered into  a  long-term  commitment to become a Global Partner of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.
