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 IWC Pilot’s Replica Watch Timezoner Chronograph

IWC’s Timezoner Replica was developed to be an ideal travel companion. A quick spin of the bezel suffices to show a new time zone.

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.

The IWC Replica locking motion of the bezel is transmitted via the movement to the hour wheel and hour hands, as well as to the 24-hour hand and the date wheel, so all three displays can be reset forward or backward. A differential gear train powers both the single-hour jumps during time zone resetting and the continuous progress of the hour hand.

The movement, with its continually advancing minutes hand and seconds hand, as well as the chronograph, all remain unaffected during resetting, so the IWC Fake Watches still shows the correct time even after lengthy experimentation with the world-time display or, as in our test, indulging in a bit of playful toying.

Regarding timekeeping, Luxury 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.

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.
