IWC Portugieser Automatic 42 Year of the Horse

The IWC Portugieser Automatic 42 Year of the Horse IW501709 exemplifies the history of the IWC Portugieser collection, which dates back to the late 1930s. Because the initial Portuguese watches were equipped with high-precision pocket watch movements, a large case diameter became its most distinctive feature. The Arabic numeral hour markers and leaf-shaped hands, matching the large case diameter, have also become an indispensable part of the Portuguese series' DNA.

 Last year, IWC gave the Portugieser series a comprehensive upgrade in details, and the biggest surprise among the entire series was the Portuguese 7. Besides its large case diameter, another important reason for the Portuguese series' high recognizability is the extremely bright dial created by its narrow bezel. Even when compared to watches larger than itself, its dial size remains far superior.

The new Portugieser further narrows the bezel, leaving more space for the double-layered box-shaped crystal. From the front, it looks like a crystal dome directly attached to the case. If the bezel were any narrower, the crystal would have to be glued on. The larger and taller crystal allows for greater light intake to the dial, making the already bright dial even more transparent. In this respect, we can compare it to IWC's 2022 Portuguese Small Seconds Year of the Rabbit watch. Although both are Portuguese and both have burgundy dials, we can clearly see that this year's Portuguese 7-inch model's red dial looks significantly more transparent and bright! Beyond the visual changes, another detail shows that IWC is truly understanding Chinese culture more and more!
