Bearing this name, the IWC collection possesses the very charm of Portofino, and this Portofino Automatic 37 (watch reference: IW458101) paired with a light brown strap feels just like bathing in the warm Mediterranean sun, offering a sense of ease and comfort. Next, let us appreciate the grace of the IWC Portofino Automatic Collection - Warm Mediterranean Sun together.

  Introduction to the IWC Portofino Automatic Collection

  'Portofino' has provided the world's wealthy and celebrities with wonderful, leisurely times, and the Portofino automatic watch brings the wearer exactly that relaxed and contented attitude to life. In the late seventies, IWC noticed the demand for simple, classic watch models, and thus the new Portofino collection—a series that combines understated character with elegant taste—was born. The Portofino collection has indeed become one of IWC's most popular watch series.

  The Portofino Automatic 37 presents a clean and crisp overall aesthetic, available in red gold and stainless steel models. Each version features either a diamond-set bezel or subtly set diamonds at the 12 hour markers, adding a touch of glamour to the minimalist and elegant dial. The slightly more compact 37 mm case size brings a fresh option to the Portofino collection, holding great appeal for users with slender wrists.

  The Portofino Automatic 37 uses a 37 mm polished stainless steel case with a thickness of 9 mm, paired with a silver-plated dial. The sunburst finish on the dial produces a dynamic lustre as the light shifts, reminiscent of the shimmering waters of Portofino. Applied baton hour markers adorn the dial, with Roman numerals at the 6 and 12 o'clock positions, and a sparkling diamond corresponding to every other hour marker. A refined date display window is positioned at 3 o'clock, harmoniously integrated with the hour markers.

  The stainless steel crown of the watch is delicate and compact, featuring the embossed IWC brand logo on top and anti-slip ridges on the side for easy operation.

  The light brown Santoni alligator leather strap equipped on the watch harmoniously complements the gold-toned hour markers on the dial, and is secured with a stainless steel pin buckle.

  The watch is powered by the Cal.35111 automatic mechanical movement, offering a power reserve of 42 hours when fully wound. This timepiece does not feature an exhibition case back; while the intricate movement cannot be viewed in action, the outer ring of the stainless steel case back is engraved with "PORTOFINO"—the collection name, and "3 BAR"—indicating the 3 bar water resistance, alongside other details.

  Having seen this, I would like to recommend a popular bestseller among IWC watches. If you would like to know more, please add WeChat for enquiries.
