Replica IWC Portugieser Automatic 40 Combines Compact Size

The Replica IWC Portugieser Automatic 40 takes the elegant base Portugieser design and adds a new compact 40mm case design and and a manufacture automatic movement for substantial added value.

The 40.4 mm case of the IWC Replica Watch is flowing and classically handsome, if a bit on the thick side at 12.4mm. Available in both stainless steel and 18k 5N red gold, the all-over mirror polish helps to drive home the old-school 1930s inspiration of the design while creating an eye-catching, yet compact presence on the wrist.

While the case and movement might aim to bring innovation to the three-hand Portugieser lineup, the dial of the IWC Portugieser Replica focuses, instead, on distilling the line’s signature elements. The clean, modern applied numerals, leaf hands, and railroad minutes track are all present here, but perhaps lose a touch of their distinctive character in the new more compact size.

These include a blue dial with rhodium hands and indices paired with the stainless steel case, along with a silver dial with 18k gold hands and numerals, available in either the stainless steel or 18k red gold cases.

Fake IWC pairs all four versions of the Portugieser Automatic 40 with an alligator-leather strap in a complementary color — deep tobacco brown for the gold case with gold markers, pure black for both the stainless steel case with gold markers and the blue dial with rhodium markers, and a rich navy for the silver dial and blue markers.

The IWC Pilot’s Replica Watch Timezoner Chronograph

To correctly set this world-time replica watch, you begin by pressing the rotatable bezel downward against the stainless-steel case, which is nearly 46 mm in diameter. Then you turn the depressed bezel until the reference location for your home time zone appears at 12 o’clock, directly above the little triangle on the flange.

If daylight savings time is currently in effect, you must rotate the bezel one position farther until the city’s accompanying dot with the letter “S” is in the 12 o’clock position. When positioning the bezel, you must press the rotating ring down firmly at two opposite points and make sure that it clicks securely into the desired setting.

If you turn the bezel clockwise in hourly increments, the date switches each time the hour hand and an additional 24-hour hand pass through the midnight position. You now continue turning the bezel, which propels the hands so they point to the correct hour in your local time zone. The IWC Replica only detail to bear in mind here is that the 24-hour hand must also indicate the correct local time. Its red arrowhead shows the appropriate hour on the smaller 24-hour circle closer to the dial’s center.

If you’re staying at an exotic location and want to know what time it is at home, or if you’re at home and you want to know what time it is elsewhere in the world, simply exert pressure evenly downward against the bezel and turn it until the desired location swings into the 12 o’clock position: a fascinating pastime.

Regarding timekeeping, Best IWC Replica self-winding manufacture Caliber 89760 runs with reliably well-balanced rate performance inside this world-time watch. The construction lets you keep the chronograph in continuous operation, while the watch’s rate remains stable with an average gain of 2.9 seconds per day. A noteworthy and convenient feature is that the elapsed minutes and hours share a common subdial at 12 o’clock, where the elapsed time can be read intuitively, as on an ordinary dial.
