Is it an automatic c.854? Anyone know what year it could have been made?

Congrats on your nice vintage IWC, a ref. 810

And your photo:
The LINK:

It has NO date, so it should have a c.854, if it has an automatic movement inside.

Or is a handwind model with a c.89 ????

It´s a good question. I bought it on Chrono24, posted there as an automatic. but shouldn´t it have a text "AUTOMATIC" on the dial if is automatic?
