There’s something special about a watch that doesn’t try too hard. No unnecessary flash, no exaggerated proportions, just pure horological craftsmanship presented confidently. That’s exactly what you get with the IWC Schaffhausen Portugieser Tourbillon Hand-Wound, reference IW544705.
Limited to just 500 pieces, this watch captures the essence of the Portugieser line. It's clean, legible, and balanced, but adds one extraordinary complication: a flying tourbillon positioned at 9 o’clock, almost floating within the deep black dial. It’s subtle, but hypnotic, without interrupting the layout it enhances. Add in the rose gold case and warm-toned hands and numerals, and you have a piece that feels dressy without being delicate. The in-house Calibre 98900 powers the watch, a manually wound movement with a 54-hour power reserve, visible through the sapphire caseback. The finishing is exactly what you’d expect from IWC Schaffhausen —clean, purposeful, and beautifully executed. With a case size of 43mm, it has presence, but the slim profile and refined lugs make it a much more comfortable wear than the dimensions suggest.
Why should this be in your collection? Because it embodies elegance without excess, this complication watch rewards anyone who takes a closer look. This IWC is for the collector who knows the difference between a trend and timelessness.
