Affectionately dubbed by collectors as “Shark Fin”, the present lot is a fine vintage wristwatch with a classic design which features lugs shaped like shark fins. The watch is housed in a 37-mm. 18K rose gold case which is very rare for its era. Adding an element of intrigue, the old IWC logo is shown on the dial with the full text “International Watch Co. Schaffhausen”. Delicate dauphine hands further complete the clean classic look of this fine-looking timepiece.
The present wristwatch is fitted with a manual caliber 89 - one of their most famous movements distinguished for its long-lasting lifespan and outstanding precision. The last of these movements were produced in the 70s. As a cornerstone of IWC, it has been used in a wide array of watch models throughout the years.
According to the archival information from IWC, the watch was sold on October 26, 1962 to the Zurich-based wholesaler Siber & Hegner.
