1960 IWC Vintage Mens Handwound Watch, Caliber 89 - Stainless Steel

IWC

Item No. 5991ST

Today we are proud to offer this superior caliber 89 IWC. It is full size, measuring 35mm 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.

It is a true expert restoration and presents as mint on the wrist. The dial has been expertly refinished. The case presents as mint, and the watch is fully IWC parts down to the hands and winding crown.

The movement has just been been cleaned and oiled and is running very accurately. 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.
