1950s IWC Bombe Lugs with caliber 853
What you see here is a rare and desirable IWC time-only from the late 50s in mint condition. The typical bombe lugs, famous in the design of the Rolex 5018, give this beautiful timepiece a very special appeal, classy and discrete, yet with enough presence and style not to be unnoticed.
Its dial is also very special, especially because of the 12 and 6 font, very modern for the era and extremely rarely seen at IWC.
