    Hello,

    I have been offered this IWC Fliegerchronograph 3741. Supposedly it is from 1994. No papers or documentation, so wanted to make sure that it is genuine. Hoping that some of the experts on this forum could help. Do you see anything off on these photos?

    Thanks

    The works look OK - although there is some damage to the caseback from opening with the incorrect tool. 

    Just make sure all the functions work well and the Chronograph resets correctly. 

    How about a pic of the front? This is essential to get a full assessment!!

    Looks OK to me. It is a little worn, and I hope that is reflected in the price.
    But that we can’t discuss here. 

    I particularly like the double track version on the subdials.

    Thank you very much for the inputs. I lost the auction for this one, but now another one has come up. Looks in great shape, but (and it's a big but) the watch is not running. Aparently the mecaquartz movement was damages by battery fluid. Obviously, it is available for a very dicounted price, but are these movements fixable? If so what would the approximate cost be? 

    Thanks again
