    Hello

    I wonder if I might have an opinion on whether my IWC Cal 89 is a redial?  I have had it 7 years, bought it for my wedding so not to be gauche and wear a sports watch.  I assumed it was a redial because of the lack of patina, but would like an informed opinion.  I have taken the liberty of taking some Macros of the printing, as I understand that is helpful.  I don't have the competency myself.

    I would be hugely grateful for any insights.

    Thank you

    David

    Apoligies the images when uploaded are low res.

    Hi Helidoc,

    hard to tell from the photos, but looks OK for me.
