This will definitely brighten your day! The Swiss national holiday, which is tomorrow, August 1, is traditionally celebrated each year with paper lantern parades, bonfires, strings of Swiss flags and fireworks. However, luxury watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen is celebrating the Swiss National Day a bit different, with the help of a mini orchestra.

In a tribute to the fine, delicate tools of the watchmaking trade – instruments often so minute that these craftsmen work with a microscope – IWC ambassador and Master watchmaker ‎Kurt Klaus‬ directs a symphony of mini instruments.
