Hi,
I looking at below watch and wanted to check if anyone can help me identifying
it:-)
from 1949
case size 34,5 case-back number 1158467
movement cal 88 marked IWC number 1123735
I can't find any info or similar watches so naturally I wonder: is it
authentic and original and of course, what I can expect from the movement?
Thanks!

Indeed a Cal 88 and the numbers match up. According to DATE MY IWC Movement
dates to 1946 and Case 1948.
I suspect that the dial has been repainted, or at least the subsecond
register. Seconds hand is replaced.
Cal 88 is a fantastic movement, reliable and rugged. It is similar to
legendary Cal 89, only with small seconds.
It was produced from 1946 to 1964
Thanks a lot! Clarified a lot!
