IWC Schaffhausen Portofino Chronograph 39

IWC Schaffhausen introduces its first Portofino Chronograph 39 with a stainless steel bracelet at Watches and Wonders Shanghai. The watch in a compact and easy-to-wear stainless steel combines a silver-plated dial and rhodium-plated hands with a sporty chronograph complication. It is powered by the IWC-manufactured 69355 calibre chronograph movement, which can be viewed through the sapphire glass case back.

This year at Watches and Wonders Shanghai, IWC Schaffhausen continues this tradition with its Portofino Chronograph 39 (Ref. IW391503). Combining the classic and timeless Portofino design with a sporty chronograph complication, this easy-to-wear watch has a compact case diameter of 39 millimetres. The polished stainless steel case, the silver-plated dial and rhodium-plated hands and appliques lend it an elegant look.

For the first time, the Portofino Chronograph 39 has been fitted with a 5-link stainless steel bracelet, which offers robustness and high wearing comfort at the same time.

The interplay between the brushed and satin-finished bracelet links results in a contemporary and elegant look. The integrated quick-change system makes it possible to easily change the bracelet for another option such as traceable Swiss calf leather and adapt the look of the watch to suit different outfits or occasions.

The Portofino Chronograph 39 is powered by the IWC- manufactured 69355 calibre. This robust and precise chronograph movement in a classic column-wheel design consists of 205 individual parts. It enables the measurement of stop times of up to 30 minutes and can be viewed through the sapphire glass case back. The bi-directional pawl winding system reliably builds up a power reserve of 46 hours in the mainspring.
