IWC Schaffhausen
For sale is a vintage Swiss Made pocket watch by the infamous IWC Schaffhausen, or International Watch Co. Schaffhausen as written on the dial. This lovely piece of IWC history dates back to the late 1960s based on its movement. It features a refined solid 18k yellow gold case which measures 46mm in diameter and is just 9mm thick. The dial on this particular example comes in a glossy white finish with black Roman numerals and a seconds sub dial at the 6 O'clock position. Considering its age and fragility, the dial is in exceptional condition. No chips or cracks can be found, and all lettering is still sharp and clear. Inside the watch sits a Swiss made manual winding movement: the IWC Cal. 952, which was developed in-house by IWC. It is the successor to the infamous Calibre 95, which became Calibre 952 when Incabloc shock protection was added.
The example sold here has been used throughout its life, but is still in good condition considering its age. The outside case has been cleaned entirely, but left unpolished to maintain its patina and original curves. The case back has some slight dents here and there, and features a lovely hand-engraved artwork depicting the letters H.B. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch was thoroughly checked and and is working perfectly. Included with the sale is a fitting black leather IWC pocket watch pouch.
