and ran through about 1996 or so. Then the Master Controls took over.
Beautiful case. The series also included most of the complications that went into the Master Controls, too, like the A-series Geographique, triple-date, etc.

Looks incredible!, thanks for sharing it

Only a little spot on the dial at August, but you won't notice it in real life size ;)

I did not let them replace the dial, just a pair of new hands, a nice finish of the case and a revision, of course.

Interesting layout for a PC...

I hadn't seen this reference before...very nice : )

No LE, it's a "simple" PC from the Odysseus series.

Base calibre is a 889 I think with a PC module 440 on top. This is the module that has been developed by IWC in the 80's as far as I know and has also been used by JLC. I actually don't know exactly the production period of these, but this was the series ... 

Interesting and thank you!

Hi Nicolas, do you happen t know in what crown position one would wind the clock ? In most outer position you set the time and by that the date. Is it so that in normal position nothing happens and if you pull just one position you would wind the watch ? ... 

Wow! You don’t see that every day! Stunning
