Manufactured in the 1940s, this International watch is equipped with the renowned Cal.83 movement and features a waterproof Calatrava design with a silver dial and the highly popular bar index layout.

The beautifully crafted Staybrite case showcases the elegant Calatrava shape, while the small seconds design combines flat bullet-style indices with leaf hands, reminiscent of the refined aesthetics of the Patek Philippe Ref.96 in steel.

This timepiece is powered by International’s iconic Cal.83 movement and housed in a robust screw-back waterproof case. Unlike many International watches from this era, which often featured printed or luminous indices, this model stands out with its rare applied indices. Understated yet undeniably distinctive, this is a collector’s piece favored by true connoisseurs.
