    This pocketwatch came recently in my collection . According to the program DateYour IWC, it is a calibre 58 from the year 1895 and the case is from around 1896.
    There are some nice details about it ; I do like the dial ( not sure if it is original ) I like the little lever to set the watch ( made a pic , pull to set the watch ) And I do like the case engraving.
    I believe the name Eugenio Boccia was the name of the dealer in Montevideo. But here again I am not sure, I couldn't find more info about it but I remember vaguely that I read somewhere that the dealer was at that time E. Boccia.

    Got confirmation that Eugenio Boccia was an important dealer at that time in Uruguay

    Tonny, Nice!

    Do we detect signs of the virus spreading....? As if it was not serious enough - LOL.

    Jokes aside though, this is a really nice addition to any IWC collection (and that dial IMHO is genuine).

    Best regards
