IWC Cushion Automatic Ref.R814A Cal.8541B 35.0mm 1970

The IWC R814A balances the softness of a cushion silhouette with the disciplined proportions of a classic dress watch. Its gently rounded case creates an intimate presence on the wrist, inviting appreciation of the design’s quiet detail. The Pellaton automatic movement adds a layer of mechanical distinction to this elegant expression of Schaffhausen watchmaking.

In addition, this timepiece comes freshly serviced with all parts laid out by our professional watchmaker for all to see in the images above. Little to no other dealers do this and it’s a testament to full transparency here at Montre D’or. With the Cal.8541B inside running excellently as shown in the timegrapher reading above, just like it was when it left the factory nearly half a century ago.
