The story of this watch · Chapters: 6

IWC Portofino Chronograph

I · This watch

IWC Portofino Chronograph (excellent condition): The display includes chronograph. An example from 2024.

II · The line

Portofino

The Portofino family took shape from an IWC pocket-watch design and appeared under its name in 1984. Its reference to the Italian coastal village reflects the collection’s restrained, classical character.

III

The chronograph

A chronograph is a stopwatch built into the watch. On most models one pusher starts and stops it and another sets it back to zero, while the time of day runs on regardless. The counters on the dial add up the elapsed minutes and, on many models, the hours.

IV · The manufacture

IWC since 1868

American watchmaker Florentine Ariosto Jones founded IWC in Schaffhausen in 1868. The Special Pilot’s Watch of 1936 established a lasting aviation line. In 1955, the Ingenieur combined Pellaton automatic winding with protection against magnetic fields. The Aquatimer of 1967 moved the instrument-watch idea underwater. Kurt Klaus’s crown-adjusted perpetual calendar appeared in the Da Vinci in 1985. IWC joined Richemont in 2000 and remains one of the group’s watchmaking houses. A new Schaffhausen site opened in 2018 for cases, components and movement assembly. The Portugieser Eternal Calendar won the GPHG Aiguille d’Or in 2024.
