Hi all,
I have a question regarding my IWC Cal 89.
I've seen many Cal 89 and i can't seem to find a fine example similar to mine.
Mine has the Case number and Type of gold engrave outside on the back case. Inside the back case its also signed. Anyone has any idea? Thank you in advance.
Sorry, I can't help with your question.
Looks like a beautiful watch, please show us the front.
Never seen this before. Maybe some sort of engraving on a then prototype?
Either way looks like a unique and nice timepiece..... can we see the front end side?
Please.
Maybe an owner had it engraved with this information. ????
Hi Guys,
Sorry for the late reply. Here's the photo of the front
Thanks! I can't seem to find an answer to this mystery. I browse through a lot of Cal 89 photos and yet to find a similar example of it.
Regards
Sam
Hi Bill,
Possible. Can't rule out this as well. The engraving seems like a stamp.
Still remains a mystery to me.
Is the case definately swiss?
Hmmmm how do i know that? Inside the back case it's signed by IWC like any other Cal 89.
Unique engraving on the rear and a handsome dial on the front side!
Magnificent piece.
Do you have a pic please?
Thank you!
Here you go. It does say swiss on the back casing.
Thanks for the pic Sktan...Swiss it is then, bit of an odd-one i'm afraid i've no ready answer, the 18kt i could posssibly half understand with the watch being manafactured close-enough to gold content becoming enough of a marker to announce but the serial number being replicated on both sides is odd and suggests non factory..
