Today we are proud to offer this superior caliber 89 IWC. It is full size, measuring 35.3mm in diameter.

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.

All its parts are original. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration and presents in gorgeous condition.

Its case presents as mint with only slight signs of previous polishing and some aging hidden inside the engine bay as is common with these. On the wrist it presents as beautiful mint.

Its dial has been expertly restored - the printing could pass as IWC factory done to the naked eye.

Its movement, which is very clean, has been freshly fully overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. Photos of the inside available upon request.

It is running strong and true, keeping time on par with a brand new IWC in our testing recording position.

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 and a half decade old IWC that looks new on the wrist!
