Gents 1961 IWC 853 jumbo automatic wristwatch in 18ct yellow gold case The watch is in working condition but being sold as spare/repair as I cannot guarantee timekeeping the dial has a few marks Please take a look at the pictures also happy to send more if required Here’s some interesting info I found on IWC’s ingenious Pellaton winding system Albert Pellaton, IWC’s technical director in-era, engineered the calibre 853 to transfer power from a bi-directional rotor straight to the mainspring, much more efficient than other automatics of the time with their gear trains and often uni-directional winding. A handful of modern IWCs still utilize it. The bulky 35mm 18ct yellow gold case has downturned lugs and a slim crown Case depth – 12mm including acrylic glass The case is fully hallmarked and signed International Watch Co. The watch comes on an 18mm genuine black leather two piece strap Will be securely packaged and sent with tracking
