AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

IWC Schaffhausen 'Classic Man' ref. 602 – 1965 – Automatic Calibre Pellaton 8531 – Full set

This elegant IWC reference 602 from 1965 is equipped with the renowned automatic caliber IWC 8531 Pellaton, one of the most iconic movements from the Schaffhausen manufacture, recognized for its reliability and longevity.

The 34 mm steel case, with balanced proportions, houses an original silver dial with central seconds and a date at 3 o'clock.
The watch is entirely signed by IWC: dial, case, movement, and original fish crown.

The movement underwent a complete overhaul in September 2025 at ABP Concept (Paris). It functions perfectly, with stable timekeeping.

The watch is mounted on a brand new, custom-made black lizard leather strap, accompanied by a new steel buckle with the IWC logo.

Very good overall condition for a watch from 1965.
Case showing minor signs of use.
Original, unrestored dial with a uniform and discreet patina.

Complete rare set including:
Original IWC box
Official IWC Schaffhausen certificate (2025)
IWC transport case

Sought-after vintage watch, combining a legendary movement, timeless elegance, and a remarkably complete set.
