    It would be interesting to see other Forum members comment and show their obscure, not-often-seen IWC watches.  I’ll start with the WEMPE regulator.

    Rare watches are very interesting.

     

    This diving watch is rarely shown here and fits very well into this thread.

     

    Regards

    Great thread Nelson.

     

    Here, one more obscure thing: The movement that shouldn't exist.

    It is the calibre 1001, which was to be launched to celebrate IWC's 100th anniversary. Somehow, the calibre never made it into series production. Only a few prototypes were produced, all of which were scrapped. 
    Were they really all scrapped? Who else has one?

    Obscurity No. 2

     

    The watchmaker's watch
    This watch was completed as a journeyman's piece by an apprentice watchmaker. It is a Ref. 2606 which is equipped with a sapphire crystal case back. It is equipped with a Calibre 89 movement of the latest evolutionary stage. When I bought the watch, I met the former apprentice and realised that he lived in the school dormitory just one floor above me.
