1927 IWC Vintage Art Deco Long 42mm Mens Wristwatch - 14K Gold

IWC

Item No. 6763

Today's offering showcases this very rare, striking, and long mens Art Deco IWC watch.

In vintage times, the Schaffhausen-based company enlisted the help of the one of the best American case manufacturers of the day, Cresarrow of New York, for certain watches intended for the U.S. market. Founded by Henry Blank in the late nineteenth century, Cresarrow contracted with Patek Philippe, Vacheron & Constantin, Tiffany, Cartier, and IWC among others to build some of the beautiful examples of their early wristwatch cases.

This special IWC is equipped with a long and very pleasing 14K gold Cresarrow case. At 42mm long, it fits even a full size wrist and really fills out a smaller wrist.

We were fortunate to acquire it in such beautiful condition. Its shapely extended Tank style original case is better than near mint. Its silver dial is bright and attractive, expertly restored by one of the leading dial experts in North America. And its high-grade IWC movement is clean and running true.

Its movement has been recently cleaned and oiled. For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new crocodile strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

If you are an IWC collector, you won't want to miss this watch!

Like always including with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
