The new models are displayed as the perfect cars of lifestyle-oriented persons. Accompanied by the motto “#SpeedUpInStyle”, the digital advertising focuses on design and architecture and it is divided in two stages, both of them featuring Cristoph Grainger-Herr, the CEO of the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer IWC Schaffhausen. He drives around New York in his Mercedes-AMG E 53 4MATIC+ Coupe, as the first video of the campaign shows.

“We are offering a lifestyle-oriented customer group a new, attractive offer from Affalterbach. A trusting partnership has linked us with IWC Schaffhausen for more than ten years. That’s why we are especially pleased to have Christoph Grainger-Herr take part in our campaign. He ideally embodies the lifestyle of the 53 series models and is thus the perfect protagonist for us”, states Eva Wiese, Head of Marketing and Product Management at Mercedes-AMG GmbH.

“As a perfectionist, I find the new Mercedes-AMG 53 series models fascinating because of the exceptional combination of craftsmanship, performance and innovation. This is what connects the IWC Schaffhausen watches with the vehicles from Mercedes-AMG”, Christoph Grainger-Herr says.
