IWC Calatrava Cal. 853 1960s

The IWC Caliber. 853 dress watches of the 1960s share the same quiet ambition as their manual wind counterparts — understated in proportion, considered in detail, and built around a movement that was engineered to last. Where the Cal. 89 required the wearer's daily attention to wind, the Cal. 853 introduces an automatic rotor: the same essential character, with the convenience of self-winding that suited the pace of the decade.
