Portofino Automatic

A favorite among many IWC Schaffhausen enthusiasts. The Portofino first appeared in luxury timepiece lineups in 1984. As it did so, it did not make a grand statement. Instead, it let its quiet beauty celebrate the finest of purism and understatement. The Portofino Automatic IW356523 continues this celebration with Roman numerals and slim hour markers as well as leaf hands. The 35111 automatic caliber is also characterized by horological elegance, ticking inside a stainless-steel case of 40 millimeters’ diameter and just 9.2 millimeters’ thickness. The automatic movement is decorated with Geneva stripes and perlée. The combination of a blue dial and gold hour markers is particularly artful on this dress watch.
