Dear All
For sale is this IWC Mark 11 6B/346 RAF Pilots Wristwatch c.1951
The IWC Mark 11 was specifically manufactured to aid RAF navigators to accurately pin-point their intended targets.
The Mk11 was introduced into the RAF and the FAA (Fleet Air Arm) in 1949 and into the RAAF (Royal Australian Air Force) in 1950. At first IWC and Jaeger Le Coultre (JLC) produced these watches. However, having bought 2,000 Mk 11s from JLC in 1949 the RAF decided to buy only the IWC Mk 11 from 1949 to 1953, when the last RAF orders were placed.
The last IWC Mark 11 was delivered to the RAF in 1953 although it was not officially decommissioned until 1981.
The IWC Mark XI for sale is in excellent overall condition.
The hands and crown are correct to the original specification of the watch.
The dial is in lovely condition with no major flaws or blemishes.
