New Portuguese 7 days

[rjk1]

IWC always looks great on yellow gold. The only yellow gold watch I'd actually wear. ;-)

Now that is a nice watch, hopefully the factories release it.

Has anyone confirmed this will be released or is it just wishful thinking on your part?

I've heard nothing of the rose gold. Probably not hard to do thought. Just throw some gold on it and call it a day.

And it needs a fake hallmark between the lugs too.

Just the gold or all of them?

Mine arrived this morning





New strap to go with this...

What TD ?

What TD ?

Does it matter? By the pics I'd say ryan.

 

[aligborat69]

All TDs will have access to same stock. Just use the td you have the best relationship with. [emoji106]

So tell us about the movement. Is it noisy? How long is the reserve? Does the second hand run smoothly (what beat is it?

Thanks.

Chris9, that looks super! I'm assuming it's the ZF -- correct? Would you mind snapping some more pics showing the numeral 4 in more detail, please? In your first pic, it looks much better than I'd come to expect based on the TDs' pics. Yours seems to bear some resemblance to the gen, so I'd like to have a closer look at it. Thanks if you'd be so kind!

Also, is that a gen strap?

i think the strap is from Vietnam. Doesn't looks like IWC Gen strap

At that price point, wouldn't the $35 Vietnamese strap be comparable to the rep strap included with the watch? I thought the rep straps were getting better?

Not by a long shot..but I do think the rep gen gator is way nicer than a lot of the Vietnamese straps I have seen. Although, the one pictured above is really nice. For $35 one could buy one in every color and not break the bank. Way better than the faux gator the reps come with imo.

Also, the rep factory gen gator will be available I a couple of weeks per what I am reading on watchbus..

MY QC pics, any comments?

 

[merowinger]

Everything looks great, but the "5" looks crooked ? Or is it just the angle ?

 

[merowinger]

"10" is strange, too

 

[Monet333]

The 0 on the 10 seems high unless it's the angle.
