IWC Schaffhausen
ELEGANCE JOINS FORCES WITH SPORTINESS
ELEGANTLY PROPORTIONED CASES COMBINED WITH STAINLESS-STEEL BRACELETS AND RUBBER OR TEXTILE STRAPS MAKE THE PORTUGIESER YACHT CLUB AN ALL-ROUND COMPANION
Since 2010, the Portugieser Yacht Club, an elegant sports watch designed for sailors, has combined timeless elegance with ruggedness and high-level water-resistance. With their filigree bezels and flat casing rings, the new 44-millimetre models have particularly elegant proportions. Ticking away inside is the IWC-manufactured 89361 calibre with flyback function, which combines stopped hours and minutes in a small totalizer at “12 o’clock”. A choice of straps and bracelets make this elegant sports chronograph the perfect companion for use on board, at the beach and on terra firma. The high-quality stainless-steel bracelet, with its polished and satinfinished surfaces, is pleasant to wear. For the first time ever, the watch is also available with a bicolour bracelet in 18-carat 5N gold and stainless steel. In addition, there is a choice of hard-wearing rubber and textile straps.
The Portugieser Yacht Club Moon & Tide represents a technical highlight. For the first time, in this model, IWC presents its newly developed tide indicator. A totalizer at “6 o’clock” shows the times of high and low tide. Positioned at “6 o’clock” is an IWC speciality, the double moon phase display. It has been expanded to show the spring and neap tides and thus provides more information about the strength of current tides.
