IWC Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph Replica “Orlebar Brown”

IWC Replica introduced many new models in its elegant Portugieser series in 2020, and revived its Portugieser Yacht Club sub-series inspired by sailing. This is an aquamarine timepiece with a special co-branded strap designed to complement the new 9 watch series, ideal for the yacht deck and beach club environment expected by the watch.

The Luxury IWC Fake Watch blue rubber strap and textile inlay are fastened to the wrist by a similar type of side buckle, with the same name as the Schaffhausen timepiece manufacturer and swimwear brand, “featuring the lifestyle of sailors, adventurers and explorers .

The navy blue dial is embellished with white and red elements, which is another visual reference of the Orlebar Brown product series, and has rhodium-plated hands and appliques; a central seconds hand; and small dials at 12 o’clock and 6 o’clock, respectively, for timekeeping Counting and running seconds, the latter also includes holes for date display.

This IWC Portugieser Yacht Club Replica Watch also has a hack-second function, and displays the second hand and date on a small dial at 6 o’clock. The screw-in crown helps make the watch water resistant to 60 meters, and the sapphire display case back provides a view of the movement with a hollow rotor and a gold IWC medallion.

Review of the IWC Portugieser Chronograph Replica

The case of the IWC Portugieser Chronograph Replica is equipped with a sapphire bottom cover, and the dial is painted with painted numbers. Standard models have applied numbers. The two watches are very similar in all other respects, including size and ratio.

This hand-wound Replica Watch has a carefully designed dial with a railway-style minute ring, Arabic numerals and a seconds dial at 6 o’clock. In this era, people prefer to wear exquisite and small watches. Portugieser must look like a giant measuring instrument tied to the wearer’s wrist.

The diameter of the Portuguese chronograph is 41 mm, which is 1 mm smaller than the Portuguese automatic chronograph. This Luxury IWC Fake Watch size was previously considered to be larger, but today, the normal size of a watch with a built-in second stop function is 41mm.

In order to achieve the required arrangement with a small number of seconds at the south pole of the dial, the elapsed hours counter must be deleted and replaced by a mechanism that continuously runs the seconds. Such modification of the movement has long been the standard procedure of IWC Replica.

Luxury Fake IWC Portugieser Collection

The Replica Portugieser Tourbillon Rétrograde Chronograph (ref. IW3940) and Portugieser Perpetual Calendar Tourbillon (ref. IW5045).

Both timepieces use tourbillon movements and offer a retrograde chronograph and perpetual calendar, respectively. The references are available in limited quantities in rose gold and platinum, each produced with either a familiar silver or blue dial.

The IWC Replica Watch has a 45-mm Portugieser case, with curved lugs and a relatively large crown. The dial’s outer edge features a railroad minute track recalling the marine chronometers that originally inspired the series, while applied Arabic numerals decorate most hour positions.

Inside the new Tourbillon Rétrograde Chronograph is the Fake IWC caliber 89900, made in-house by the brand. Like the movement powering its perpetual calendar-equipped sibling, this watch’s automatic mechanism features a gold oscillating weight, though it offers a smaller power reserve of 68 hours.

The chronograph movement notably features a flyback mechanism which gently “flies back” the Luxury IWC Replica seconds hand to zero upon reset, giving the watch an uncommon and luxurious aesthetic in its timekeeping.
