Swiss watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen is looking to the stars with its latest collaboration.

The horology label has signed on as the official timekeeper of California-based space habitation technology company Vast. Through this strategic collaboration, IWC Schaffhausen will support the American start-up as it develops the world’s first commercial space station, Haven-1.

“Our collaboration with Vast is a natural evolution of our heritage in aviation, which began almost a century ago,” said Chris Grainger-Herr, CEO of IWC Schaffhausen, in a statement.

“We are excited to continue this journey as Vast’s Official Timekeeper and look forward to exploring new frontiers together,” Mr. Grainger-Herr said. “This collaboration will enable IWC Schaffhausen to intensify its research and development efforts for watches that are tested for spaceflight.
