[Comment] Although the 43 mm diameter case does not seem to be outstanding today, IWC watches can always make people truly experience great harmony. This is firstly attributed to the tradition of IWC’s use of large pocket watch movements, as well as the great tension shown in the design of IWC watches. Especially for Portuguese series watches, the extremely narrow bezel further enhances the visual effect of the dial. This year is the anniversary of the launch of the Portuguese series of watches. IWC has added several new models on the basis of the original models. It can be said that the Portuguese series is ready to fight in the new year.
