IWC Portugieser Watches 2024 Review

In recent years, IWC has also made many attempts on the color dials for the IWC Portugieser watch. Whether it is the previous green dial, burgundy red dial, or a set of customized color dials launched for Portugieser in the flagship store last year, they have attracted numerous praises. This year, IWC also took the passage of time and the beautiful scenery at different times of the day as inspiration, and specially launched three new color dials, namely horizon blue, obsidian black and dune gold.

Among the new color schemes, only dune gold currently offers a stainless steel style. This special color shows the beautiful artistic conception of the evening sunset, and from the actual effect it is similar to champagne gold, but IWC's blending is more elegant, and many watch friends think that dune gold will be closer to the color of the salmon dial. Obsidian Black is the exclusive color of the 18K red gold case. Black and gold are classic color combinations that will never go wrong. High-end luxury style is synonymous with black and gold. IWC also uses a dial with multiple layers of paint to exude a deeper luster. With a gold case and gold digital time scales, it creates a warm effect like lights in the city night scene.

Horizon Blue symbolizes the clear sky in the afternoon, and is similar to the very popular ice blue dial. IWC has fully brought the coolness and freshness of this light blue tone to the extreme. Horizon Blue is indeed the new color that watch friends have paid the most attention to since the release of the new watch, but as an exclusive 18K white gold case, there is indeed a certain threshold to get started.

The changes of IWC Portugieser are the most significant. IWC has adjusted many details of the case size, dial, and movement, and has truly achieved a comprehensive upgrade inside and outside, giving the classic work a new look, and the overall texture is more refined, presenting a more modern and simple design. Now let's compare the classic silver plate with blue hour markers and hands with the old model to show you the new details of IWC Portugieser. The new IWC Portugieser has only been slightly adjusted by 0.1 mm in size, and the diameter has been adjusted to 42.4 mm, which is not much different from the old model, but the new case is 12.9 mm thick, which is 1.2 mm lower. If you have the opportunity to experience the new and old models together, then after wearing the old Portugieser 7 and then the new Portugieser 7, you can immediately feel that it is thinner, which brings a very significant upgrade in wearing comfort.

The watch still continues the classic on the dial. The double sub-disc layout has a small second hand on the left and a 7-day power reserve display on the right, the three-dimensional digital time scale with a willow-leaf hand, and the track-type minute scale. These iconic designs have been retained, so many watch friends feel that there is no change when they see the new watch released, but in fact, we can clearly see many details when we compare the new and old IWC Portugieser. First of all, there are many details of the two highly symmetrical sub-discs, and the record texture has been adjusted to be larger and clearer. The 7-day power reserve display at 3 o'clock has cancelled the red design of the last day of the power reserve, and no longer uses the iconic "a little red", making the dial more harmonious and unified in color. The track scale is also larger, directly surrounding the power reserve display, including the DAYS font, which has been adjusted more compactly.

Turning the watch over, the bottom cover of the new IWC Portugieser is fixed by four-sided screws, and the bottom back transparent design also uses a larger box-shaped sapphire glass back, which is more transparent, and also means that the amount of light entering is greater, directly showing the details of the new movement. IWC also used all the polishing processes that can be used for the new movement, with the top hollow rotor brushed, the center gold badge, the next layer of plywood circular Geneva pattern, and the bottom layer decorated with fish scales. IWC's latest movement for the new IWC Portugieser is named 52011, which is an upgraded version of the previous 52010. The hardware is still powered by the Pellaton automatic winding system, which uses almost wear-free zirconium oxide ceramic components and double barrels to provide a power reserve of 168 hours for seven days when fully wound.
