This is a rare piece from the early 1940s featuring an International watch with a silver dial and powered by the renowned Cal.83 movement. The rare cushion case was predominantly seen in the 1930s, making this likely one of the last pieces utilizing this style of case from the 1940s. Despite its 30mm diameter, the cushion case offers a unique volume, and the simple yet timeless silver dial showcases the era's essence and exquisite taste. It is equipped with the esteemed Cal.83 hand-wound movement, representing one of International's flagship movements. The distinctive craftsmanship of the cushion case, including the engraving of a unique serial number on the bezel, middle case, and case back, adds to its allure.
