The Swiss luxury watchmaker expands its beloved ‘Portofino’ collection with a new, covetable bejewelled model
For over three decades, Swiss luxury watchmaker IWC Schaffhausen’s ‘Portofino’ collection has remained a firm favourite, loved for its timepieces’ classic elegance and understated sophistication, drawing inspiration from the charm and allure of the Mediterranean. Now, the brand is unveiling another watch to swoon over, expanding the line-up with a fresh model that promises to infuse a touch of Italian refinement into your attire, no matter where you are in the world.
Dubbed the ‘Portofino Automatic Day & Night 34,’ the new timepiece exudes the collection’s signature minimalist yet polished aesthetic, harmoniously fusing style with performance. Available in variations of stainless steel, sterling silver, or 18k gold cases, each version is adorned with lustrous diamonds intricately set around the dial. Opt for the statement-making midnight blue colourway or the taupe calfskin strap for a more subtle accessory.
As the name suggests, the watch features a day and night display – an artistic representation of the day’s cycle – and is the first 34-millimetre ‘Portofino’ model to include this complication, enhancing both its visual appeal and practical functionality. Powered by the 35180 Calibre automatic winding movement, it guarantees ultimate precision. For those seeking a more dressed-down option, the broader ‘Portofino’ collection offers countless styles, from vintage to contemporary, all imbued with the brand’s revered timekeeping finesse.
