Portofino Hand-Wound : IW544805

The IWC Portofino Hand-Wound, reference IW544805, is a watch model introduced in 2008 that exhibits classic design elements with modern refinements. As part of the Portofino collection, it features a platinum case with a substantial diameter of 46.0 mm, giving it a significant wrist presence. The watch stands out with narrow Roman numerals and a moon phase display that adds to its timeless elegance. Its transparent caseback offers a view of the intricate 98800-calibre hunter movement, which is based on the Jones calibre and includes components such as a screw balance and Breguet spring. The movement has been updated for enhanced precision, notably improving the accuracy of the moon phase display to deviate by just one day over 122 years.
