Today we are
pleased to offer this superior caliber 89 IWC. It is full size,
measuring 35mm in diameter.
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 has all IWC parts down to the hands.
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.
As part of the
restoration, the movement has been serviced by a Master Watchmaker
and is keeping perfect time.
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.
