IWC Watch in Yellow gold and leather
Superb vintage IWC (International Watch Co.) watch produced circa 1970, powered by the legendary IWC Manufacture caliber 89, one of the most renowned manual movements in Swiss watchmaking history for its reliability and finesse.
The round case in solid 18k (750) Yellow gold, with an elegant 36mm Diameter, features facetted horns and an original pressure back.
The case middle features subtle lateral teeth, a typical and refined IWC detail from this period.
The domed Plexiglas crystal is New, offering excellent legibility and respecting the model's Vintage aesthetic.
The original Silver dial, never restored, is enhanced by fine Gold-plated applied baton hour markers and matching Gold-plated hands, with central seconds. Slight, homogeneous, discreet oxidation spots, barely visible to the naked eye, are a natural sign of the watch's age, reinforcing its authenticity and vintage charm.
The watch is mounted on a new, Unsigned black ostrich leather strap (beautiful brand), and will be delivered with an IWC Gold-plated steel buckle (added to the sale).
