Hello OF members,

I have this vintage IWC with 852 automatic caliber from the 50s for sale. I am consolidating my collection and unfortunately this one has to go.

The watch has just gone through a full service at my watchmaker in West Palm Beach (Wagner Micro Engineering) and runs like a champ.

Case: 18 K solid yellow gold case is in very good condition for a + 60 year old watch. No dings or scratches.

Case measurements: 35 mm. without crown, 18 mm. between lugs, 11,5 mm. height.

Dial: Gold colored dial with soft patina. All golden indexes are present and in mint condition.

Hands: Original to the watch. Clean and not corroded.

Crystal: Very good condition original acrylic crystal.

Caliber: IWC 852 caliber has been just serviced and keeps excellent time.

Crown: Unsigned (not IWC) replacement unit.

Strap: The watch comes with a brand new ZRC leather strap with gold colored buckle.

Price: I’m asking $1,550 USD net to me insured shipping within CONUS. Shipping to other countries at cost. Watch and I are in the US and I can ship worldwide.

Payment: Wire transfer payment for new members, or PayPal for established forum members only (buyer covers the fees).

Returns are only accepted if grossly misrepresented.

I have plenty of international references available upon request.

And now some photos of the watch. Excuse the dust particles on the acrylic crystal of the watch in some of the pictures below.

Thanks for watching and thanks OF for the space!
