IWC Portugieser Automatic In Stainless Steel For The Coming New Year

 

Quick Take


Another new IWC introduction being announced today, also in the Portugieser line, is this new stainless steel automatic offering. It comes with a silver-plated dial and rhodium-plated hands that pair well with the chosen case material. This is a nice update on a familiar design within the dressy Portugieser line. The small seconds at 9 o'clock are balanced by the power-reserve indicator at 3 o'clock.  The power reserve that's being indicated is a more than ample seven days, considering that this is a self-winding watch equipped with an in-house movement from IWC. Further, the movement has been engineered with the company's Pellaton winding system, devised to maximize the amount of energy transmitted to and stored in the barrel by the rotor's movements.

Initial Thoughts


This is a nice looking stainless steel wristwatch with an equally well-engineered in-house automatic movement and an extended power reserve. If there was ever any doubt that IWC makes an elegant wristwatch, a simple Portugieser like this ought to lay it to rest. Now, for many readers, this watch's 42.3mm case is going to wear on the larger side, but that is kind of the  idea with the Portugieser. It's a watch that was developed from the early days to utilize pocket watch movements in oversized wristwatches. If this guy is too big for you but you're on board with the overall aesthetic, then the the company's Portofino line may merit a look.

Breitling Bentley Replica Watch You Can Wear

  Overall Impression I am happy that someone at Breitling has finally realized that there is a lot of wealthy people with good taste and there is a strong demand for classy ultra-luxury watches. Like with the last year’s Navitimer Aviator 8 B01 Chronograph 43 Limited Edition model, Breitling’s designers sought their inspiration in watches that were offered by the brand back in the 1940s-1950s when their products were mainly associated with elegance and refinement, not with arrogance and brutality. The new batch of vintage-styled models is still significantly physically larger than the classic pieces from half a century ago, but not in that defiantly vulgar way as the luxury timekeepers offered ten -or even five- years ago by Breitling itself, Breitling Bentley replica watch as well as its many competitors. Case, Ergonomics & Strap At 42 millimeters in diameter, the Centenary is still larger than a classic dressy chronograph and the lugs could have been a trifle shorter to make...

2018 Tissot T-Race MotoGP Limited Edition Watch

  Tissot T-Race MotoGP Limited Edition Chronograph Leading up to Baselworld 2018, Tissot has released a new limited edition into what's arguably its most masculine collection. Tissot has often been criticized for its change of direction over the last few years through partnerships with a number of organizations and people – the NBA and MotoGP being the most consistent and successful. The motorbike racing inspired Tissot T-Race MotoGP Limited Edition Chronograph has more nods to Motocross than a bobble-head in a hurricane. I believe this model will fit into a niche of reasonably affordable watches for the hardcore speed-bike fans who aren't afraid to rock a rose gold piece of manly wrist candy. Case Let's start with the case. Measuring in at 43mm x 12.7mm (though I imagine it feels a bit larger considering the hefty crown guard and pushers aptly described as the "control panel"), the stainless steel case is coated in rose gold, and features oversized lugs...
