International Watch Company Automatic Gents Wristwatch 18ct Yellow Gold

This is a vintage 18ct yellow gold watch from the designer IWC. The watch features gold hour markers and gold hands. The watch case has been crafted in 18ct yellow gold with Patek style lugs and a brown crocodile effect leather strap.

This particular model is a very fine and rare example of IWC craftsmanship and attention to detail. The heritage of IWC is deeply rooted in American pioneering spirit and entrepreneurship. Florentine Ariosto Jones, a watchmaker from Boston, founds the International Watch Company in 1868.

He draws on the help of eminently qualified Swiss watchmakers, modern technology, and hydropower sourced from the nearby River Rhine to manufacture pocket watch movements of the highest possible quality. The Rauschenbachs, an industrialist family from Schaffhausen, take over the company following Jones' return to the United States. During its early years, IWC produces pocket watches with a digital "Pallweber" display, as well as wristwatches for women and men.
