Powered by one of the most highly-regarded manually wound movements ever made, talked about in the same sentence as Pateks, the watch is rich in technical details.
For those unfamiliar, the caliber 89 movement was designed by IWC's renowned technical director Albert Pellaton.
It has just finished a true expert restoration and presents as mint. The dial has been expertly restored - the printing could pass as IWC factory done to the naked eye. Its case presents as mint on the wrist.
Its movement has just been been cleaned and oiled and is running strong and true. For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a new leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
A nearly six decade old IWC that looks brand new on the wrist!
