    I have a gold pocketwatch with serialnumber 914921. I would really appreciate some help with information about this watch. Picture [i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg541/Cingrud/IMG_8686_zpss0htubg9.jpg](s1243.photobucket.com/user/Cingrud/media/IMG_8686_zpss0htubg9.jpg.html)

    Some information from the DateYour IWC App.

    I don't see your pictures. This is a sure fire way to post them.

    It looks like the serial number you gave is for the case, a beautiful case I must say. The date your IWC app puts that at about 1930, which you obviously already know. Beautiful case and dial - I've not seen a dial like that. Can you show the movement and the movement serial number?

    Thanks for help and information. Really appreciate it.
    I think the serialnumber on the movement is 982582. Here is picture [i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg541/Cingrud/IMG_8591_zpstfgy9duv.jpg](s1243.photobucket.com/user/Cingrud/media/IMG_8591_zpstfgy9duv.jpg.html)

    Yes, you are right that the number is 882582. I read the first digit wrongly as a 9 instead of a 8.

    Besides that I love that georgeous dial, this is a cal 74 dating from 1928.

    Here is the Date Your IWC database information with both the movement and case numbers identified.

    Thanks a lot for more great information. If I would consider to sell this watch, do you have any advice to where I should do it? And what would be a realistic price?

    So, firstly we are non commercial here, so we cant support such a request. You may contact me offline at levi@iae.nl for this.

    We are looking here at a watch dating from around 1930 fitted with a cal. 74 ( a so called finger bridge Calibre). Not so uncommon a timepiece, but as Ben writes we dont see many such dials.

    Nice piece.
