18ct gold IWC watch calibre 8541 from 1963
IWC are synonymous with not only very elegant and stylish watches, but a company that also incorporates a superb movement and this vintage IWC from 1963 is certainly no exception and highlights this perfectly.
Made in 18 carat yellow gold, the case itself is so sleek and elegant and looks perfect with the black leather band giving it the right look to wear with a suit for work, or in the evening for that special dinner. With the dial being printed with the original and elegant “International Watch Company Schaffhausen” in that gorgeous font, it also has a centre sweep seconds hand and date window to finish the look. The case measures 34mm across plus the IWC crown, and sits so well on the wrist where it will no doubt always be admired.
Inside it is powered by the amazing automatic IWC calibre 8541 which is regarded as one of the best movements ever produced not only by IWC but any watchmaking company in the world. This IWC movement was designed by Albert Pellaton who was the technical director of IWC, and this automatic movement has an ingenious system that included the ability for the automatic rotor to wind the watch regardless of which direction the rotor was turning. Now completely serviced by our in-house watchmaker and running perfectly, it comes with our twelve month warranty.
This IWC exemplifies just why they have always been regarded as one of the finest watchmaking companies in the world, and why their watches are continually so sought after.
