Quick TakeIWC managed to get all of their perpetual calendar functions to display in an elegant and non-cluttered way on this Portofino perpetual calendar. The stainless steel case looks great on the blue leather strap as well.
DescriptionThe IWC Portofino Perpetual Calendar Ref. IW344601 is a remarkable example of IWC's commitment to excellence in watchmaking. The watch's stainless steel case, measuring 40.0 mm in diameter, presents a sleek and elegant design, perfect for both formal and everyday wear. The 12.7 mm case height is carefully designed to accommodate the intricate 82650 Calibre movement, ensuring that the watch remains comfortably slim on the wrist. This automatic, self-winding movement, composed of 303 components and 46 jewels, operates at a frequency of 28,800 VPH (4 Hz), offering exceptional timekeeping with a power reserve of 60 hours. The see-through sapphire glass back not only adds to the watch's visual allure but also allows a fascinating glimpse into the heart of the movement, adorned with Côtes de Genève, a hallmark of fine watchmaking.

At the core of this timepiece lies the perpetual calendar complication, a marvel of horological engineering. It is meticulously programmed to track the date, day, month, and leap year over a span of 577 years without the need for adjustment, a testament to IWC’s prowess in creating complex, yet user-friendly timepieces. The perpetual moon phase display adds a layer of astronomical beauty, accurately depicting the moon's cycle. The sapphire glass, convex and treated with an antireflective coating, ensures durability and clarity, enhancing the overall legibility of the watch. Complemented by the sophisticated blue calfskin strap, the IWC Portofino Perpetual Calendar Ref. IW344601 is more than just a watch; it's an exquisite piece of craftsmanship that resonates with those who have an appreciation for timeless elegance and the intricate art of watchmaking.
