The Portugieser design is simple but surprisingly distinctive. The dial is characterized by Arabic numerals, dot minute track, and a spacious but symmetrical layout. Matched with the narrow bezel, the result is a recognizable and pleasing look that is also versatile, having gone from a time-only watch in the original to a chronograph. In 2018, IWC offered the first glimpse of the future when the brand celebrated its 150th anniversary. The new Portugieser Chronograph is essentially a ref. 3714 with a superior, in-house movement, in fact, among the commemorative editions is the Portugieser Chronograph Edition 150 Years ref. 3716, near identical to the ref. 3714 but powered by the in-house cal. 69 355.
