PORTOFINO '150 YEARS' IW356518 V7F VS Gen

[mindhunter1]

I was about to buy it but I saw a discrepancy. Why does it say it's 39mm on puretime but on IWC website says 40mm??

Nothing wrong, match Gen every part interchangeable with Gen .

Still quite confused reading from page 1, so the one in puretime really use Swiss ETA and Gen croco? Or they just wrote it so the price could rise higher??

It’s not gen croc. You can buy it with Swiss eta tho.

Will check it out as soon as I’m home. I have the rep strap and the gen strap at home tho and to me the rep strap is poor compared to the gen.

also asked Jtime before I bought the watch and he said it’s not gen croc. However I’m not a leather expert. My subjective opinion

Ok I read it. I am not sure if the strap is gen croc. I dont have the watch with me right now, will have it tomorrow, then I can compare to gen strap.

However, what I noticed on the whole homepage is, that the reviews are very "salesy", compare for example this review (https://www.noob2.com/7486.html) to the experts opinion on this piece on RWI. The movement so far is not even engraved but printed and the guy really hypes it. I would think critically before buying a watch based on his review.

rep strap left. In my opinion the gen strap looks a little nicer but the rep strap feels VERY close to gen. Almost the same feeling. I don’t know if it’s genuine crocodile but it’s super soft and looks like croc to me.

Pricey. To my understanding the one with gen Swiss eta has the genuine croc strap and the one with the seagull (cheap movement) has a calf strap

Yea. The pricey version is pretty good bang for the buck with gen Swiss eta and gen croc leather.

In my opinion better to wait mesh bracelet , otherwise go cheap movement and customize crocodile strap by sending strap to strap maker , Iwill go cheap movement..
