AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Dear Bidder
For your attention, please be aware that you are bidding on a 'Marriage watch.' This consists of a pocket watch movement and a new custom-made or pocket watch case converted into a wristwatch.
Please consider this before bidding to avoid any misunderstanding.
Thank you.



Rare and unique, modified, IWC Skeleton Marriage wrist watch

This watch is made from an IWC pocket watch from the year 1916!
The case, the hands, the hour ring, and the crown are specially made for this watch.

This watch is artistic, handcrafted, and artisanally silver-plated.
This craft is not machine-made work, so there are superficial imperfections.
In the execution, therefore also unique and exclusive!

The detailed photos are part of this description!
Please review these photos carefully so that you know what you are bidding on!

There are two IWC logos, one on the front and one on the back: PROBUS SCAFUSIA!

Excellent well-running quality watch: IWC Caliber H6!
The watch has undergone a full service after processing and silver plating.

Set the time by pressing the small button and turning the crown back.
Don't pull on the crown and always turn the hands forward.

The product number is 645.388 and was produced in the year 1916!

The number 31457 with the Swiss cross in front of it is a patent number from IWC.
This patent concerns the inability to fully wind the spring, which results in
a better tension is and there is no risk of break spring

There is also a number 55231, which concerns a patent from IWC.
Regarding the confirmation of the dial, which is, of course, not present now.

The steel cabinet is new and has virtually no visible signs of use.
Even the cabinet is artistically and craftily worked on.
See detailed photos that are also part of this description.

Large watch: the diameter measured without the crown is 47.5 mm!

The total band length including the clasp is 20.5 cm.

Very special, rare! and unique IWC watch that functions very well.

Well packed, sent registered and insured.

Of course, a timepiece of this age (more than 100 years old) has a certain, limited,
deviation in time per day
Please keep that in mind.
