Back from the Schaffhausen Spa.

Yesterday, my wife's IWC Golf Club came back from Schaffhausen. It went in for a tune up and spa treatment. I am thrilled with what is now a new watch. I don't have many before pictures but the case needed a polish for sure. The Wizards did their usual magnificent job.

One before shot: Nicks and dings were evident.

After:

Now the case is shiny and ding free. The dial was not touched, but I am unsure if they replaced the hands. I am particularly fond of the script logo on the dial.

At my request, they did not replace the fish crown, or if they did it came back as a new fish crown.

My wife is a very happy camper. The Golf Club is now back on her wrist. I don't get to wear it, btw.

Wow, they did a spectacular job. It looks brand new!

Great job they did! It looks great.
Good to know they listened and left the fish crown and dial untouched

That's indeed a watch looking like new! Good job! Too bad you don't get to wear it, but on the other hand (no pun intended) you can look at it from a different angle :)

Kind regards,

Clemens

Looks super, Bill. I really like the cushion shaped case.

welcome home...

Beautiful watch Bill. Great pics too. Very cool.

Congrats Bill. You can't expect something else than that from Schaffhausen, can you?

A wonderful restoration. IWC did a similar job for my Golf-Club which I bought in a distressed state in the hope that it could be restored. I was delighted with the result.

I love it Bill.

Hi Bill!

Pretty amazing i all aspects! Love that watch, love the job IWC did and love your photography!

Send my warm regards to your wife.

Best regards,

Bob

It looks as good as new Ralph?? Nice.

Classy watch for what must be a classy lady Bill - love it!

I love that watch! The shape of the case makes a slightly playfull impression. It's a beautiful classic.

Bill, I have been holding back ....

What an amazing job those Wizards Of Schaffhausen have realized once again! I know how much Mary appreciated that watch before - and now, it's back on her wrist and good to go for another 45 years.

Thanks for posting the wonderful shots and please do tell Mary I wish her well to wear that beauty in good health!
