DESCRIPTION
The unassuming star
Portofino Automatic
Understated elegance and a certain pleasing reserve are the factors that explain the ongoing success of the Portofino Automatic timepiece. It is the unassuming star from Schaffhausen: for many years now, its timeless exterior and reliable mechanical movement have won it a place in the hearts of many watch devotees. In 2011, the big year of the Portofino collection, this classic model will be available with a carefully reworked design in a contemporary 40-millimetre case.
Good things come in threes – particularly hands. For many years, this has been the motto for the Portofino Automatic. And this watch is the entrylevel timepiece to the world of IWC Schaffhausen. Hours, minutes, seconds and a discreet date display, all powered by a solid mechanical automatic movement: the epitome of good taste, it needs no more.
