IWC Cal. 89 Shark Fin Rose 1959

Mid-century design meets modern presence - IWC Cal. 89 Shark Fin Rose This rare IWC Caliber 89 dress watch from 1959 offers an exceptional blend of understated sophistication and striking case architecture. Crafted in 18k rose gold, the standout feature is undoubtedly the sculptural thin “shark fin” lugs, lending a bold, architectural touch to the clean, minimalist aesthetic. At 37 mm, this piece remains perfectly proportioned for modern tastes today. The white/silver dial with a classic 12-3-6-9 layout and original hands and crown has developed a subtle, even patina that adds vintage character without compromising legibility. Powered by the legendary IWC Cal. 89, a hand-wound movement celebrated for its robustness and precision, this timepiece is more than a design object — it’s a mechanical icon. - wrist size in our picture is 18cm / 7" circumference - DIAL: original never touched white/silver dial in great condition original hands and crown some very slight patina throughout the dial STRAP & BUCKLE: dark brown GOLDAMMER Kardinal leather strap fitting up to 20 cm wrist size / 2 mm thick rose gold plated GOLDAMMER buckle CASE: excellent overall condition, showing minor traces of wear 3- body 18k rose gold case with snap-on case back 37 mm (without crown) / 43 mm (lug-to-lug) / 18 mm (between lugs) / 9 mm thick year: 1959 total weight: 41 g MOVEMENT: International Watch Co Cal. 89 - manual 17 jewels, 18000 A/h, 44 hours power reserve professionally serviced in 09/2026 -8 sec/d / 350° BOX & PAPERS: GOLDAMMER certificate of authenticity & service documentation card GOLDAMMER box
