IWC IW505003 Tribute to Pallweber SS Blue Dial LIMITED

The IWC Tribute to Pallweber Edition “150 Years” IW505003 is a compelling reimagining of IWC’s historic Pallweber pocket watch, introduced in 2018 as part of the Jubilee collection celebrating the brand’s 150th anniversary. Limited to just 500 pieces in stainless steel with a richly lacquered blue dial, it preserves the dramatic jumping numerals for hours and minutes via rotating discs, complemented by a small seconds display at 6 o’clock. Powered by the in-house, hand-wound calibre 94200 with a robust 60‑hour power reserve and a patented disc-jump mechanism, this timepiece offers both technical ingenuity and mechanical refinement. The 45 mm case, just 12 mm thick, balances presence with wearability, while wired lugs evoke the original pocket-watch aesthetic. The blue lacquer dial, achieved through multiple layers of lacquer and imprinting, delivers exceptional depth and a vintage enamel-like finish. As a limited-edition model, this piece has strong collector appeal, representing a milestone in IWC’s digital display innovation and a faithful tribute to its horological heritage.
