Welcome to my Top Swiss Chronometers Boutique:
With its passion for innovation and technical inventiveness, IWC Schaffhausen has established an international reputation. Since 1868, manufacturers have been creating masterpieces of haute horlogerie. IWC mechanical timepieces are handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, combine precision engineering with extraordinary timeless design, bringing finest technology and unique emotions to the wrist.
To differentiate their mechanical offerings from the growing crowd of modernist quartz watches, IWC launched the Portofino line in 1984 as a “pocket watch for the wrist.” Designed to suggest a “marriage” watch, the Portofino features a thick, rounded case with a prominent crown, a plain dial with Roman numerals, and slim feuille hands. Although often compared to dress watches like the Patek Philippe Calatrava, the Portofino's Lepine “pocket watch” design is quite different.
The first Portofino, 1984's Ref. 5251, used a classic hand-wound movement with small seconds at 09:00 o'clock. IWC released a classically-styled dress watch in the Portofino line in 1993, competing at last with the Calatrava.

Chic white IWC watch box (see pics). Distributor's stock.
Excellent condition, never worn: the wristwatch comes from luxury watch-shop showcase; that's why the strap is replaced with brand new one (leather straps often suffer from temperature in shop windows due to powerful spotlights).
General professional pre-sale service was made in July 2024: the watch is keeping good time and working perfectly.
My personal authenticity and quality warranty: you will get warranty card (as pictured), fully completed and signed on the back.
Insured, registered shipping worldwide.
Everything you see in my pics is included in the package that you'll receive.
My personal opinion, based on 30+ years of collecting experience: 'Portofino' is one of most beautiful cult wristwatches ever; this incredible purity and clarity of lines is an undoubted sign of the most noble breed! Despite the fact that IWC calls this Portofino a men's wristwatch, I believe that the offered version is unisex: this phenomenal elegance will adorn the wrist of any lady!
