Description

An automatic translation of this text is available.
The legendary 'Mark xi': From 1948, it took to the skies on the wrists of countless pilots. However, it was not only air force pilots who entrusted their precious time to the 'Mark xi'. iwc had incorporated all the experience gained to date with pilot's watches into the design of the movement and case. The latest findings in the fields of watchmaking and metallurgy were also incorporated. The principle of magnetic field protection by means of an inner case made of soft iron, which had already been used in the large pilot's watch, was consistently continued in the 'Mark xi'. The newly designed Caliber 89 has a patented drive for the central second hand and stop seconds. Before delivery, each 'Mark xi' had to undergo a 44-day test program for 'Navigator Wrist Watches'. The watches intended for the Royal Air Force bore the 'Arrow' on the dial. The military engraving on the back with the unit designation and year of manufacture was applied by the respective military procurement offices. www means 'Waterproof Wrist Watch'.

The example offered here is from the series for the Royal Air Force and is sold with another black leather strap in addition to the nato strap. All parts of the watch are in original condition (not like some offered with new hands or the like) and in perfect working order. The watch has been very well treated and stored and comes from a private collection that is being liquidated.
