Pilot's Watch Mark XV

IWC | Ref. 3253

Sold

The line continues!

Here we have the successor to the Mark XII - the IWC Mark XV Ref. 3253.

As you may have already noticed, two numbers were skipped, 13 & 14. This is due to the fact that 13 is considered an unlucky number in the West and 14 in Asia - therefore, from 1999 onwards, there was the Mark 15!

The Mark XV comes with a case that is 2 mm larger compared to the Mark XII, as well as an ETA-based caliber. Otherwise, the design was adopted almost unchanged.

Our offered Mark XV is in very good condition with only very slight signs of wear.

The original tritium dial is in excellent condition. The hands are filled with Luminova.

The watch comes with the original IWC pin buckle.

The watch has been fully serviced by our atelier.
