IWC Calatrava Roman Dial 818A C.854 35.0mm 1968

This beautifully preserved IWC Calatrava 818A is housed in a 35.0mm stainless steel case with a radiant white Roman dial and elegant pencil-style hands. A timeless, understated dress watch that captures the elegance of vintage Swiss watchmaking. Meant for the classiest of collectors who appreciate the finer things in life.

Little to no other dealers do this and it’s a testament to full transparency here at Montre D’or.
