There is an example has a silver case. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that the dial is signed "International Watch Co.", since IWC's name sometimes did not appear on dials of this model.

Pallweber watches were made by IWC from approximately 1885 to 1887. The so-called Pallweber movement is actually the Elgin II calibre.

Named after its inventor, the movement had both jump-hour and jump-minute indications...
