The IWC Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph is a model with a very strong following. It combines the classic styling of the Portugieser collection with a considerably sportier character.
The silver dial looks fantastic with the contrasting red chronograph hand. Signature Arabic numerals and classic feuille hands complete the unmistakable Portugieser design.
The case measures 45.4 mm in diameter. Despite its substantial size, the watch sits comfortably on the wrist, while the black rubber strap gives it a distinctly sporty appearance.
Inside beats the manufacture automatic IWC Calibre 89361. The movement provides an impressive 68 hours of power reserve together with a flyback chronograph.
The chronograph display is particularly interesting. Hours and minutes are combined in a single totalizer at 12 o’clock, allowing the elapsed time to be read almost like a conventional watch.
The sapphire display caseback also allows the manufacture movement and its finishing to be admired.
Complete with all original boxes and papers dated 2017.
Condition is excellent, with only minor signs of wear.
