Iwc 18k Spider 1949

IWC has produced a very wide variety of wristwatches from an early time ranging from dress watches to aviation watches. This example, in 18k rose gold with spider lugs would remain a constant in anyone's collections, especially as it has never been worn and comes in near NOS condition.
