Description
I recently inherited this watch from my grandfather. I would guess it was made in the 1950s or 60s. It did not come in the original box, nor did it have any paperwork, so I don't know the model or any other relevant info.

Re: IWC Watch
Hi,
After some digging I believe you have a fantastic IWC "Calibre 89" Watch.
The body alone is worth thousands. There's currently one on eBay for over $5,500. Here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/IWC-VINTAGE-89-VINTAGE-18K-ROSE-GOLD-WATCH-CALIBRE-89-35MM-COM697-/222140114419
The tough part I'm having is matching the band. Are there any markings on the band?
The other thing I would suggest is to reach out to the company for some guidance. I know that you don't want to sell it, but maybe you can get a better idea of what to insure it for.
This is the link to the official website: http://www.iwc.com/en-us/
I hope this helped.
-Pete
