Catalogue Note
The Jones calibre was developed by the founder of IWC, F.A. Jones and was originally designed for pocket watches. One of the main features of the movement is the elongated index, known as the Jones Arrow, which extends from the balance wheel cock to the three-quarter plate. This watch was produced in a limited series of 3000 pieces. The current example is number 577.
