For comparison, another similar calibre 67 from 1936.

Hi Tiark,

nice looking pw! Don't want to sound intrusive but, may I ask you if they've replaced the dial?

ok
i had this one in hands today
the lady wants 300 euro for it
it is mint condition as tiarks
dial is toned to some greyish colour certainly now white
and back is with screw fitting not snap on
does all this sound ok as I need to pay tomorrow ?
thanks for help

Hi Roberto

I did not replace the dial and believe it to be genuine - though, of course, I do not know and cannot tell what previous owners may have done over its first 65 years ...

Hi Zokitzar

I have never seen an IWC pocket watch with a screw-on rather than snap-on back. The Ingenieur pocket watches might have had their backs screwed on but as far as I am aware, all other IWC pocket watches had either hinged or snap-on backs (leaving aside the Borgel cases, where the whole movement is screwed into the case but those look very different).

Dirk

its a snap on my mistake
it si so tight that at first glance i didnt see any gap for snaping it open so I assumed its screwed on
it is 1938 c67
will post pic soon
as I am now a proud owner :)

Congratulations!

Looking forward to your pictures.

Hi

the deck watches with center seconds (calibers 52 and 71) had screw-on backs.

I have a Jones Lepine Type S with a screw-on back.

Thats very interesting MF.

As your post proves, there were all types of cases backs in existance and shipping from Schaffhausen in the early days already. I wonder if our fellow forumers know/realise that even glass case backs existed way back then on the pocketwatches!

hi
been away for a while
here a re better pics with huge delay

That's a really nice timepiece!

Love those blue hands and the patina on that dial.

Really appreciate your sharing it.
