About This Watch
Pre-owned. Comes with orig. boxes, manual & dated paper. One owner's watch from new who paid S$11800 for this watch from The Hour Glass in Singapore back in 2010 & this is a sold out model.
The Ref.5448 is a hommage to the original model from 1984 that has a 46mm wide case with thin bezel resulting in a large pocket-watch display dial that also shows the moonphases. Back in the 1980s, watches were small boy-sized pieces of just 30mm for the gentleman so this was quite outrageous in those days & never sold well but became highly sought after by collectors after the late 1990s.
This steel version is one of the 6 Jubilee Edition models produced in 2008 to celebrate the 140th Anniversary of the IWC Company. The moon phase display on this watch is so accurate that it only deviates by one day in 122years from progress. It is fitted with the pocket watch derived Calibre 98800 with an oversized regulator.
Watch is in splendid condition with a perfect glass (Blue anti-glared coating) & the polished steel case is free from any dents or visible scratches to the naked eyes. The original strap is used but presents very well.
This model was sold at full retail when it was launched and one of the most sought after model among the six models from the Jubilee collection but you can own one now for much lesser. A rare opportunity as this collection was only produced for a short while & discontinued. The 1980s yellow gold version was trading for over S$30K.
Further 3% discount for cash payment as usual & no GST from us.
