    Hi and welcome to The Forum

    It is impossible to comment without photographs.
    Seller says movement is 100% original. What about the case etc?
    Is it a pocket watch or recased wristwatch?

    We need more information in order to help you.

    Thanks Mark for the welcome. I tried to import pictures but it seems to be hard. I´ll try again. www.chrono24.se/iwc/schaffhausen--id7056495.htm

    Here's your photo.

    Other experts may correct me, but this looks like a fake to me. I don't recall ever seeing a dial like this one. The case is all wrong too. The lugs are wrong. The hands are definitely not anything from IWC. It might be an IWC PW movement since no IWC wrist watch has a sub-dial at 9. The little button at 2 o'clock is likely the pin set lever for setting the time. That's a PW movement.

    No correction needed Bill
    Your assessment is spot on, as was my hunch.

    CARWES27, stay far away from this one!
