New Portuguese 40mm

[CarmeloAnthony]

Forget the specifications. Just look at the pictures. It's clearly too thick.

It does look thick in the pictures. But I’ve seen reps that have been thinner/thicker in reviews than stated on TD’s. I can’t find a youku review or a member review of this watch anywhere.

According to the IWC website, the dimensions are 40.4 mm x 12.3 mm
Not that much thicker that the genuine
From the IWC site:

Stainless steel case
Diameter 40.4 mm

ZF just released the IWC Portuguese 40mm line:

Looks better than the YLF version.

Nice one if you don't care for the movement being a dead giveaway.

Yes, thats the problem with all the highly decorated inhouse movements with open caseback.

At least ZF seems to have gotten the thickness more accurate than YLF. Excited for this one!

ZF also nailed the newer much more comfortable butterfly clasp from this series, while YLF just stuck with the old uncomfortable deployant. Great job!

There are some new pictures of the watch on Intime:

Thickness looks very close to the gen. An overal very good looking watch.

looks like a 9015 in the ZF.
The previous generation using A6498 actually looks better, though the price is on the high side for the movement used.

Here is my QC photos for whoever is interested, this ZF looks amazing! I only had good luck with these Miyota movements in the past so I am hopeful for this one as well.

So, it would appear Z Factory is presently delivering product. That’s encouraging, as I’ve seen ZF mentioned in threads discussing who’s been affected by recent raids.
