IWC Portuguiser is one ot the icons in the horology overall. The team at Schaffhausen managed to improve this, already beautiful watch, through some subtle and decent changes of its case and glass, as well as with new colour schemes. IWC Portuguiser... as desirable as ever ! And even more !
Stunning. Iwc make some amazing calendar watches! The blue dail looks lovely but black/ gold combo is the one for me,msomehow that black sunray lifts the dial…really cool
Love the gold face, as you said matches jewelry easily and like wearing a gold watch without the flash! Love it. Unfortunately, for moi prob have to wait for a pre-owned one. Thx for your work and share!!
I think that they offer 44, 42 and 40, but for folks w tiny wrists I imagine even 40 can be challenging. But the Portugieser was 41.9mm in 1939, so good they are staying faithful to that.
Tolles Video und die beste Stimme von allen UA-cam Uhrenkanälen. Super Uhr leider gibt es das Horizon-Blatt nur mit Weißgold, was sie für mich zu teuer macht. Das sandfarbene Blatt muss man mal live sehen, da würde der Preis wieder passen.
Thanks for the detailed video! Is the 52011 in the Portugieser 42 the same as the old movement? i've read elsewhere that it is new and slightly different from the older 52010 movement which is also currently in the Big Pilot
great vid ! question to all , the straps on these models all have a glossy and almost sparkling apperance ??? are these straps coated in a clear coat ? i wonder.
Thanks for sharing our passion! That is possible… I don’t find any information though… www.iwc.com/at/en/strap-result.IWIW503703.html#accessorytype=clasp
Nice but way too expensive . Please don’t tell me they are “ luxury” watches I understand that . At these prices there are better options that don’t depreciate like these when bought new. Pre owned at a BIG discount yes, otherwise I’m afraid they priced them too dear in my opinion. Love the dune colour dial , the others are nice too. Shame about IWC ‘ s pricing though . If they were a little less aggressive on pricing they might possibly sell more pieces ….
Who’s really buying such expensive watches? Explain how some are entry level car prices? You get so much with a car material, workmanship, engineering etc they are also produced fast unlike watches. It seems like they maintain a low production to charge exorbitant prices.
@@djcan9503 No all things in life are made for practical reasons.Someone that buys a painting for 100 millions can you calculate how many cars homes or televisions can buy with the same money ? Of course this man have already all these things before spent such money for a painting.There are some people in this world that earns the money for an iwc watch in minutes so its not expensive at all for them.There are other people like me that are not rich but like watches so i spent 4.000 euros for an iwc watch 12 years ago and still have it and i can sell it for almost the same price now ( was cheaper back then and 4.000 was more money that are now )
Thanks Alexander! Stunning watches presented fabulously as always…I’m loving all your Watches & Wonders content!

It is the most difficult thing to do what you just described… Thanks for sharing!

Kind of miss the little splash of color on the power reserve indicator.
the red at 1 day mark? i hate it. mine is black dial, the red 1 day mark seems so contrast and out of place.
Thats Beautiful❤
Beautiful watches
Thanks for sharing! Which one is your favorite?
Lovely watches Alexander.
I see you are starting to appreciate see throught cases.
Beautiful mechanisms, should not be hidden.😊
gorgeous!!
@@kevinwagner8697 Thanks for sharing! which one is your favorite?
@@WatchAdvisor the tan one,blue one and black and gold one-i know thats more than 1 favorite.
That’s what I call being spoilt for choice…
Gorgeous

Too big and chunky for me and I will curious to see how IWC does in the +$15k price segment. Lot of great choices in higher price segments

Vielen, herzlichen Dank für Dein unglaublich nettes Feedback! Schaue Dir die sandfarbene mal an und schreibe uns was Du davon hältst….
@@WatchAdvisor sehr gerne, verdient ist verdient! Wenn wir die Chance haben, dann machen wir das.
@@waldorfstatler8476 Ich persönlich finde die ziemlich cool… eine sehr ungewöhnliche Zifferblattfarbe…

Only a few technical improvements… the calibre itself is the same…

Ou la la !
Great video. I prefer the dune colorway as well
Look lovely by themselves in isolation , but they're still way too big on (7 3/4 inch wrist here BTW) and IWC's pricing is simply crazy now.
beautiful colors and dials, unfortunately the strap is too thin and small lug makes the watch looks like a bulb , thick and imbalance
May I ask: Have you tried the watches on your wrist?
My father had IWC Portuguese watch, he died and my sister got the watch.
Thanks for sharing! Does she still wear it?
@@WatchAdvisor Well I don't think so, I don't know, maybe she sold it.😁
Hopefully not… I sold some watches in my life, but none I got from my father….
Awsome Watch But Mans Voice got me To Jump of it All
Did it? Why?

Nice watch,too expensive new,i prefere to buy one in secondary market,i find a portofino 34mm in full gold for 6700$...
This is encroaching on used Lange territory. Ridiculously overpriced. It will likely be deeply discounted in the secondary market.
Your 6700 isn’t the same movement. You are speaking of an ETA movement
@@djcan9503 a lot of swiss brand use eta mouvment,i prerere of course an inhouse mouvment but full gold at this price you never find new today.

IWC sells well… you don’t seem to be aware of “normal” prices of luxury watches…

Why do you call the dune color "legendary" ? What's legendary about it?
I referred to the "Dune" movie... maybe you have seen it....
@@WatchAdvisor ah ya? Is the dune colour in at iwc somehow linked to the movie? They didn't communicate that.
Way too big of a watch for any lady I would ever talk to
You should see her wearing it in combination with jewelry and accessories … you will change your mind… believe me
