    Dear profs, experts, forum users !

    Could you give me a definition of authenticity of this watch and assessment?
    Are all elements of this watch native?
    Can arouse smb's interest?
    The watch works.

    p. 83. Back side : the mark ML (or MF) , and the mark - the muzzle of a
    wolf,the same in the eye of the watch case.

    Regards,

    Hi Alex177,

    the movement of the depicted watch is a IWC Cal. 83 from the 40ties (no
    incablock shock protection) and fully authentic. The case however is most
    probably not of IWC origin, since the factory stamping is missing and also the
    case number typically is in the same raneg as the movement number. The dial
    looks also authentic, but for a movement from the 40ties it is to good to be
    true, i would expect some more patina on the dial.
