With its case and dial design, the watch represents perfectly the style of the 1940s. The condition of both case and dial is excellent; the thin yellow gold case has a pleasant feel. The same warm gold tone is repeated in the beautifully shaped alpha hands and applied baton hour markers. The quality of IWC's ultra-thin manufactured caliber 95, which was used from 1927 to 1962, is also outstanding.
