A vintage IWC Schaffhausen dress watch in a case as 18K gold, with a champagne dial, black baton markers and a hand-wound movement, on a black leather strap.
The Piece
IWC's Schaffhausen history distinguishes the 1915 wristwatch calibres 75 and 76 from the later automatic Ingenieur, introduced in 1955. Those dates describe the maker's development, not this watch's manufacture.
The round case as 18K gold, has flared lugs and a smooth case back. The champagne dial is signed International Watch Co Schaffhausen, with black baton markers and slim gold hands, and the movement is wound by hand.
The watch was as running; it has not been tested again. The strap is a black crocodile-patterned leather strap with a gold-coloured buckle, and it is not original.
