This is an early 1950s manufacture, featuring the International Cal.88, with a 33mm stainless steel waterproof Calatrava design and a silver dial. The snap-back waterproof case continues the Calatrava design from the Cal.83 era and houses the in-house Cal.88, a beautifully finished and divided bridge successor to the renowned small seconds Cal.83. The silver dial with applied bullet indices and dolphin hands has a simple, timeless design. Despite its understated appearance, the meticulous craftsmanship typical of International ensures it is a cherished piece for long-term use.
