The Watch: This IWC Portugieser Hand-Wound 8 Days 75th Anniversary Edition (Ref. IW510205) is a tribute to classic watchmaking, blending vintage aesthetics with modern refinement. Limited to just 750 pieces, this 43mm stainless steel beauty captures the spirit of the original 1939 Portugieser design. The dial features a timeless combination of minimalist Arabic numerals, an offset small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, and a vintage-style IWC script logo. The power reserve indicator, subtly tucked away on the exhibition case back, reveals an impressive 8-day manual-wind movement—perfect for those who appreciate the ritual of winding their watch.
On the wrist, this piece makes a statement with its broad, yet slender profile (just 12.7mm thick), ensuring it slides easily under a cuff. The sapphire crystal, cambered to evoke vintage Plexiglas, adds a nostalgic touch. Flip it over to admire the beautifully finished IWC-manufactured caliber with Geneva stripes, polished screws, and a robust free-sprung balance. Whether you're a fan of Art Deco design, mechanical craftsmanship, or simply love an elegant everyday watch, this limited edition Portugieser ticks all the right boxes.
This comes with an extra IWC strap.
