IWC Portugieser Chronograph Edition 150 Years neo-vintage And having owned a handful

And having owned a handful ourselves

This lovely piece harkens to a time when personal style wasn't dictated by social media influencers or celebrity endorsements

This particular example dates to 2011 and features all of the hallmarks of the Explorer name - the distinctive 3-6-9-12 dial

the OPS is based on the Sherpa 600

Its 36mm case wears extremely well and its classic look gives it appeal among even the most staunch Rolex devotees

IWC Portugieser Chronograph Edition 150 Years neo-vintage And having owned a handfulWhile the Big Pilot collection might be their headliner, it is their diverse line of exceptional chronographs that IWC is most respected for amongst enthusiasts today. Whether from their Pilot, Aquatimer, Ingenieur or Portugieser Collections, an IWC chronograph is always a good choice, and in our opinion, a Reference 3714 Portugieser is amongst the most compelling. In production for over 20 years, the 3714 is nothing short of a contemporary classic.
