With its classic 44 mm rose gold case, elegant white dial, refined railroad minute track, and small seconds at 6 o’clock, it captures the historical aesthetic of early IWC pocket watches. Inside ticks the beautifully hand-finished in-house caliber 98290, a manually wound movement whose finely crafted bridge is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback. This example is offered in like-new condition with original papers – a true collector’s piece for admirers of traditional IWC watchmaking.

In 1939, two portuguese dealers commissioned a series of large wristwatches with high precision pocket watch calibres. This was the birth of the Portuguese. What was then an unusual large watch is now a perfect match for fashion and can be worn both sporty and elegant.
International Watch Company
The succes story of IWC began in 1868 when the American engineer Florentine Aristo Jones settled in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. His business partner Johann Heinrich Moser had invented a system that enabled them to use the water power of the Rhine for industrial purposes. Together they started the mechanized production of Watches. In the following Year they already produced over 10.000 Watches for the US market and expanded selling internationally.
