Iwc De Luxe 18k Date 1961

This rare IWC De Luxe with slim shark fin lugs is one of those watches that impress at first glance.

Under the hood beats an automatic caliber 8531 from, and the dial exudes a certain elegance, no doubt due to the incredibly well-crafted Dauphine hands and Pie-Pan shaped dial. The case, also made of solid 18k gold, features a slightly stepped bezel that adds even more character to this beauty.
