Description
We are proud to offer this exceptional rarity: the IWC Ingenieur 666 AD in a yellow gold case with a black dial. Dating from the late 1960s, this is currently the only known example of this variant on the market - a true highlight for discerning collectors.

The combination of yellow gold case and black dial is already extremely rare. To find one in such remarkable condition is even more exceptional. The case shows no signs of polishing and subtle traces of natural oxidation, indicating long storage and minimal wear.

The watch is powered by IWC's legendary anti-magnetic automatic calibre 853, a masterpiece of watchmaking renowned for its precision and reliability.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of watchmaking history, unmatched in its rarity and originality.

About the IWC Ingenieur
The legendary Ingenieur watch model from the Schaffhausen-based IWC manufactory was introduced in 1954 and was specially designed for scientists, doctors and researchers. Durability, functionality and exceptional anti-magnetic properties were at the heart of this innovative tool watch. A distinctive feature is the "INGENIEUR" logo on the dial, depicting a lightning bolt striking from top left to bottom right, symbolising the watch's pioneering technical achievements.
