IWC Schaffhausen Portofino Hand-Wound Eight Days (IW510103)

The IWC Schaffhausen Portofino Hand-Wound Eight Days IW510103 is a sophisticated, hand-wound watch from the Portofino collection – the perfect proposition for the classic connoisseur who appreciates elegance, simplicity and traditional watchmaking at its best. This model combines minimalist design with the impressive technical side of the movement, creating a timepiece that not only looks beautiful, but also offers high utility values.

The 45 mm stainless steel case retains the classic proportions and elegant character typical of the Portofino line. Brushed and polished surfaces add to its sophistication, and the curved, anti-reflective sapphire crystal ensures excellent readability of the dial. The clear glass case back allows you to admire the intricate finish of the movement, emphasizing its luxurious character. The water resistance of 3 bar (approx. 30 m) makes the model suitable for everyday, elegant use.

The silver dial captivates with its transparency and subtle aesthetics. On its surface there are classic hands and indices, a small second hand and a power reserve indication, which reminds of the remaining energy of the movement for up to eight days. In addition, there is a discreet date display that enriches the functionality without disturbing the harmony of the minimalist design.

At the heart of the watch is a hand-wound movement calibre 59210, operating at a frequency of 28,800 VPH (4 Hz) and offering an impressive power reserve of as much as 192 hours — a full eight days between windings. This piece consists of 215 components and 30 bearing stones, and the sophisticated finish (m.in. Geneva stripes) emphasizes the craftsmanship and precision of workmanship.

The model is set on a high-quality alligator leather strap made by the prestigious manufacturer Santoni, which emphasizes the elegant character of the watch and ensures comfort of wearing throughout the day.

The IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Eight Days IW510103 is a timepiece created for a man who appreciates timeless design, mechanical beauty and a unique ritual of use – hand-winding once a week becomes part of everyday pleasure. It fits perfectly into elegant, formal outfits, but its subtle aesthetics also work well in more casual combinations.
