**SPECIFICATIONS** **Brand:** IWC **Model:** Mark XV **Reference:** IW3253-01 **Year:** 2000s **Case Number:** 2830649 **Case Material:** Stainless steel **Diameter:** 38 mm **Lug Width:** 19 mm **Thickness:** 10.2 mm **Lug-to-Lug:** 47.1 mm **Dial:** Black **Lume:** LumiNova **Crystal:** Sapphire **Movement:** Automatic **Caliber:** IWC 37524 **Bracelet/Strap:** IWC black calfskin strap with signed deployant buckle **CONDITION** **Case:** The stainless steel case shows light signs of wear in the form of minor hairlines and tiny nicks, mostly to the bezel area. The overall presentation feels clean. The lugs are thick with excellent definition at the edges. The polished top of the bezel shows faint softening at the edge where it meets the brushed case. The caseback is in nice condition with only tiny hairlines and nicks present. The backs of the lugs show signs of strap removal. The brand and model engravings are sharp and deep. The serial engraving is faint but remains fully legible. **Dial, Hands, & Crystal:** The black dial and polished paddle hands are in fantastic condition. The minute hand has one faint micro mark visible under a loupe. While under a UV light, the hands show a blue tint while the dial markers show a green tint. When the UV light is removed, both glow the same green with the hands being slightly stronger. Based on this behavior, we believe this transitional dial uses LumiNova for the markers while the hands use Super-LumiNova. The sapphire crystal is squeaky clean and scratch-free. **Bracelet/Strap:** The IWC black calfskin strap is in mint condition with virtually no signs of wear. The IWC-signed deployant buckle is also in great condition with only a couple tiny hairlines. The brand engraving and stamp both remain crisp and detailed. **PERFORMANCE** **Timing:** The watch has been measured with a timegrapher at six different positions. The rate, amplitude, and beat error are within acceptable ranges. While resting face up, the rate is +6s/d. **Functions:** All functions including the crown winding, time setting, and quickset date are working as expected. **Service History:** Unknown. **WHAT'S INCLUDED** - IWC Mark XV on a black calfskin strap. - Original instructions, service booklet, guarantee booklet, and blank guarantee card. - IWC travel case.
