So nice! You did quite well for yourself with that acquisition.

A rose gold IWC with C89 movement is a top "want list" watch for me. Thanks for posting photographs of your new IWC. I always like seeing good examples like yours on the Forum.

Thanks! It only took about two years, the last 9 months of which were filled with kicking myself for another example I didn’t jump on fast enough. So almost feels like I earned this watch... almost!

Updating with some movement pics. Pretty close numbers on the case and movement, looks to put her right around 1962. Beautiful inside and out!

Thanks for the movement shot.

This thread made me dust off the IWC here yesterday and wear it. Was a happy Monday too.

Back from the spa! My watchmaker said he’s pretty sure the watch has never been serviced. Every screw looked untouched. Said he’s never seen a cal 89 like that, was really impressed... and also VERY glad I brought it in for a full service!
