IWC Portofino Automatic Moon Phase IW459402

In 1984, IWC created the Portofino collection. The family was named after the idyllic village on the Italian coast, which became an exclusive holiday destination for the international jet-set during the 1950s and 1960s. Since that day, Portofino watches have successfully combined the ease of the Mediterranean lifestyle with a touch of glamour and elegance. The Portofino Automatic Moon Phase is the first Portofino timepiece with a case diameter of 40 millimetres that also features a moon phase display. Until now, this popular complication was only offered in 45 millimetres or 37 millimetres. This timepiece is housed in a classic stainless steel case. The silver moon harmonises beautifully with the blue dial, as well as the rhodium-plated hands and appliqués. This casual yet elegant watch is fitted with a hand-coloured black alligator leather strap.
