    Highlights

    Excellent condition given its age. The case is sharp with crisp engravings. The movement bears the “Kings” arrow and has been completely overhauled by our specialist watchmaker. The dial is evenly black with no damage and its luminous paint is in very good condition showing no signs of flacking.

    The watch incorporates the fabled C89 movement, mounted in a stainless steel case. The movement is fitted with 16 jewels, and the escapement embodies a non-magnetic solid type balance of “Glucydur”, with an auto compensating, non magnetic hairspring of “Nivarox”. The timekeeping can be synchronized via a “hack” second.

    The dial is of soft iron and together with the dust cover over the movement forms an antimagnetic, so called Faraday cage.

     

    Later also used by RAF Pilots the IWC Mark XI was finally decommissioned in 1981.

    One of the “Iconic”, must have, military watches. If there ever was a tool watch, this is the one.

    I have bought many watches over the years and some through online and retail specialists. I must say that the service, professionalism and attentive service by John and Dee at the Swiss Watch Company was exemplary. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and hope to repeat the experience many times over the coming years.
