IWC Portugieser Chronograph automatic red gold and black dial leather strap 41 mm

A prestigious interpretation of an iconic chronograph

The Portugieser Chronograph has become one of IWC Schaffhausen's defining creations. Inspired by the original Portugieser watches designed to bring the precision of marine chronometers to the wrist, it is celebrated for its perfectly balanced proportions, outstanding legibility and timeless elegance. With reference IW371625, the Manufacture elevates this iconic design through the use of 750/1000 red gold and refined finishing, creating a chronograph of remarkable presence and sophistication.

A captivating black sunray dial

The black sunray dial immediately draws attention with its rich depth and changing reflections. Applied Arabic numerals, gold-plated feuille hands and the signature railway-track minute scale provide exceptional readability while preserving the clean aesthetic of the Portugieser collection. The recessed small seconds and 30-minute chronograph counter are perfectly balanced, reinforcing the timeless harmony of the dial.

The IWC manufacture calibre 69355

Powering this timepiece is the IWC-manufactured calibre 69355, an automatic column-wheel chronograph movement entirely developed and assembled in Schaffhausen. Renowned for its precision, reliability and smooth chronograph operation, it beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a 46-hour power reserve. Visible through the sapphire crystal case back, the movement showcases refined finishing and the outstanding craftsmanship for which IWC is renowned.

The elegance of 750/1000 red gold

The elegant 41 mm case is crafted from 750/1000 red gold, whose warm tones beautifully complement the deep black sunray dial. Its polished surfaces highlight the refined architecture of the case, while the domed anti-reflective sapphire crystal enhances the visual depth of the dial. Completing the watch is a luxurious black alligator leather strap that perfectly matches its sophisticated character and ensures exceptional comfort on the wrist.

Timeless elegance, exceptional engineering
