In addition to launching exciting watches like the Replica Big Pilot’s Top Gun Edition Ceramic, IWC has been quietly revamping a great many of their collections. Foremost among the revamped models is the Mark XX, which received some nice quality-of-life upgrades. The next watch to receive a similar update is the IWC Portofino Chronograph 39 IW391502.
It’s an unexpected choice from Best IWC Replica Watches because the 39mm editions only debuted last year, in fact we covered the launch here. The new watch is virtually identical to those 2021 editions, featuring the same dial design and case, but this time in monochromatic silver white.
What’s new is the movement inside, which has been updated from the Copy IWC Watches For Sale 79350 modified Valjoux 7750 to the in-house IWC 69355. Its 46-hour power reserve is an improvement on the previous calibre but over all it’s very similar with 30-minute timer and small seconds functions in addition to hours, minutes and chronograph seconds.
Whether to gift to a precious loved one or to reward yourself, celebrate the holidays, or mark an exceptional achievement, a watch with IWC‘s 154 years of horological passion and experience has earned its role in this memorable moment. Here are IWC Schaffhausen Replica watches to inspire your holiday gift-giving in 2022, from the elegant lines of Portofino to the high-performing chronographs of the Pilot’s collection to the iconic aesthetic of the Portugieser — IWC is all about a perfect gift that will last a lifetime.
Introduced just in time for the 2022 holiday season, the IWC Portofino Perpetual Calendar is the collection’s new flagship model. Currently, the smallest perpetual calendar in IWC’s collections,as it is referred to in IWC Replica Swiss Made enthusiast circles — measures just 40mm-wide, making for a truly timeless and effortlessly elegant presentation of Schaffhausen’s iconic complication.
A sporty-elegant chronograph comes as naturally to the Portofino as white tennis shoes or a drop-top Mercedes match the glistening shore of the Italian Riviera that lent its name to this impressive collection in 1984. Measuring 39mm-wide and presented in high-polished stainless steel, the AAA IWC Portofino Chronograph 39 (Ref. IW391502) Replica Watches looks fresh, yet ageless in this dual-pusher, dual-subdial configuration.
A silver-plated dial, with stunning leaf-style hands and applied hour markers, and IWC’s trademark high-contrast legibility make for a design guaranteed to stand the test of time. The Best IWC Replica Watches-manufactured 69355 caliber and its traditional Côtes de Genève and perlage decorations are displayed by a sapphire crystal caseback, while a quick strap change system, also seen at the back, is there to make changing straps — and hence the style — of the Portofino Chronograph 39 easier than ever.
The Lake Tahoe version of the Pilot’s Watch Chronograph is presented in a 44.5mm-wide white ceramic case in combination with a purposeful, yet energetic black-and-white dial endowed with characteristic Fake IWC Watches design traits, such as the triangular 12 o’clock marker, the crisp white texts, and the aeronautical-inspired Arabic numerals. Combined with that crisp pair from Faction Skis, this is a set ready to perform from the freshwater depths of Lake Tahoe to the mountain ridges of the Alps.
A narrow, yet complex bezel surrounds an extensive dial in rich green, with every must-have design feature of an IWC Pilot’s Replica Watch very much in place, including the large numerals, wide “alpha” hands, as well as a day and date display at the 3 o’clock position. The case is matched to a beautifully finished steel bracelet on a marvel of engineering in itself, with polished bevels running along the outermost edge of every link, while vertically brushed and polished individual links follow each other in close succession.Its IWC-manufactured 69385 self-winding caliber is safeguarded by the 100m water-resistant case.
With its unique combination of an extensive dial, ultra-thin bezel, and curved lugs, the IWC Portugieser Copy Watch is instantly recognizable and timelessly beautiful all at the same time. The hand-applied numerals, seen here in dark blue, stand out against a bright white backdrop, lending the Portugieser dial its trademark sense of immense quality and exceptional refinement.
Two pump-style pushers stand between polished, curved lugs and the crown — the latter etched with “IWC Probus Scafusia,” evoking the company’s Schaffhausen origins, “Scafusia,” and relentless pursuit of good, honest quality, “Probus.” The two sub-dials, standing at 12 and 6 o’clock, and a triplet of long, center-mounted hands drive the Portugieser design home on this IWC Portugieser Chronograph Ref. IW371620 Replica.
Now the brand has revived one of the classics from the line with the IWC Portofino Perpetual Calendar Replica. At 40 mm in diameter, it’s the most compact of IWC’s perpetual calendars and is equipped with an in-house movement from the 82000 family.
The perpetual calendar is a sought-after complication for its utility but also its aesthetics, especially when it includes a moon phase, which adds a touch of romanticism to the design. IWC’s latest take on the complication is straightforward, practical, and priced reasonably enough. In fact, it’s essentially a visually-simplified version of the Best IWC Portugieser Perpetual Calendar 42 Replica, which uses the same movement but inside a larger case.
While not revolutionary in technical terms, the Portofino Perpetual Calendar is a solid performer with a concise design. It retains all the features that made the 1990s original appealing but adds a few contemporary touches in both design and the in-house base movement.
The legible and neat dial has a restrained elegance, resulting in an orderly, legible appearance. Consumers of this particular complication often ask the same question: can the calendar be easily read, preferably within five seconds? The answer in this case is yes, although the calendar markings are small, though that is typical of a calendar that relies on sub-dials.
And the concise design also extends to the details like the sans serif typography used for calendar and numerals and the removal of the four-digit year indicator that was long standard for IWC Replica Watches Review.Echoing the original in both simplicity and size, the new Portofino Perpetual Calendar is 40 mm in diameter, while the case height is 12.7 mm, including a domed crystal.
That’s slightly tall but a consequence of the relatively thick base movement, which is the in-house cal. 82650. And like mostiwc replica watches reviews, it is available in steel or 18k pink gold.The case takes its cues from the 1990s original, so it’s all rounded and mirror polished. It is uncomplicated in both form and finish, which also means it’s missing some of the finishing details that its Portugieser cousin has.
The dial is a fuss-free silvered affair that does away with anything superfluous in its design, giving it a clean aesthetic. Its hands and baton indices corresponding to the case metal for a clean look that’s almost monochromatic but livened up by the blued hands and moon phase.At the same time, the numerals for the five-minute markers gives it a functional appearance, though the leaf-shaped hands bring a classical, retro feel.
Each of the calendar indications is in conventional sub-dials with pointers. And replacing the four-digit year display is a leap year indicator in the form of a small aperture within the day-of-the-week register.
At six o’clock is the moon phase display that will have the moon and stars either rhodium or gold-plated, depending on the iwc replica swiss movement watches case material. Unlike most moon phase displays that are accurate to a day in 122.5 years, this is driven by a “precisely calculated reductionist gear train” that results in a one-day deviation after 577.5 years.
Like most contemporary IWCs, the case shows off the movement through the sapphire back. The ETA-based calibre in the 1990s original has been swapped for IWC’s proprietary cal. 82650, first introduced in the Portugieser Perpetual Calendar 42 in 2020.
Part of the 82000 family of movements, the Cheap IWC Replica cal. 82650 is one of the brand’s smallest in-house calibres, but nonetheless retains the brand’s signature Pellaton winding system and a respectable 60 hours of power reserve. Notably, the pawls and wheel of the Pellaton system are made of black ceramic, rendering them wear resistant.
