This beautiful thing arrived today, wound a couple of turns and away it went. I´m absolutely fascinated and delighted by the mechanism. I´ve had it running 7 hours and as far as I can see, it hasn´t lost a minute. I do have a question though, I ran it through Date Your IWC, out came either Cal 40, 41, or 42 ??? Can it it be identified by the parts and pictures that are visually seen, or do I have to remove the dial to correctly identify it? The movement No. is 12998 and case No. 28618 if my eyes aren´t decieving me. Thanks for any help.

Absolutely stunning Pallweber. The dial looks to be in perfect condition. Mark and Alan will be jealous, I'm sure. Now, only if, IWC would consider putting a Pallweber digital dial into a wrist watch.

I think it is a. c.42 (Pallweber III). My shown picture is a. halfhunter pallweber III, movement No. 12075, built in 1885. Don't remove he dial, a lot of Pallweber dials were damaged through revisions. You have a wonderful Pallweber watch with a dial that seems to be perfect!

Great one Jimmy, spotted this one too. Love the Pallweber watches. But as I just bought the Seeland, funds were too low. Great condition. Have fun with this one.

Congratulations.

I believe it is a Pallweber type III, for the US market.
