KM IWC SCHAFFHAUSEN GERMANY KRIEGSMARINE WWII Cal. 67 Circa 1939 pocket watch

The Calibre 67 movement was made from 1933 to 1958 in 23,400 examples. This Calibre s frequently found in less expensive pocket watches, usually steel cased. While it might be considered as a less expensive model, it still is a fine movement and in fact the design serves as a predecessor for IWC's more contemporary Calibre 98 movements. It also is frequently found in military-styled steel-cased pocket watches, and in fact was used by the German Navy as a deck watch in World War II. Calibre 67 is 5.5 mm in height, and has a diameter of 41 mm (18 ligne). It was produced in 15 or 16 jewel variations. As with other IWC pocket watch movements that preceded it in the late 1920s and'30s, it beat at the traditional 18,000 half-beats per hour (2.5 Herz), had a bimetallic balance with screws, a hair-spring with a Breguet overcoil and used a so-called goose-neck (or Swan's neck) fine-adjustment for regulation. This Calibre 67 watch from 1939 is a classic example of a military deck watch with its dial format and design. This watch was used by the German Navy (Kriegsmarine) of U-boats and surface boats in World War II.
