IWC Portofino Automatic Moon Phase 37 Replica watch

IWC was a well known watch brand in the watch market, and there are many series of IWC watches appear in recent years. Today, I was likely to talk about a famous and classic IWC watch series, named IWC Portofino. Before we say details about this series of IWC watch. We may see some past of this IWC Portofino watch replica.

History
To date, IWC has had over 149 years of watchmaking history. IWC started with a young American Engineer and Watchmaker, Florentine Ariosto Jones. Jones had been the deputy director and manager of the E. Howard Watch and Clock Co. in Boston, then a leading American watchmaker. In the 1800's, many people were attempting to try their luck in the west but Jones took a different journey and headed up to Switzerland. His goal was to combine the highly respected Swiss watchmaking together with the modern engineering of that age.

In Switzerland, many watchmakers were practicing their craft in little villages and small homes, but Jones had greater plans, a central production plant to produce at high quantities. This was of course met with a lot of skepticism from the traditional Swiss watchmakers. Fortunately, not long after, Jones met with Heinrich Moser, an industrialist from Schaffhausen. At this time, Schaffhausen already had a great reputation in the tradition of clockmaking. Eventually, Jones achieved his dream of being able to manufacture timepieces of outstanding calibre in relatively large quantities in this very town, where they still continue to do so today. Thus, this gave birth to the IWC we know today.

Now that we know how IWC was born, let's talk more about the Portofino and the inspiration behind the design. However, you may see many series of other watches’ technical Specifications. But I think you are worth seeing this one.

Technical Specifications
Historically, in the 19th century, Pocket watches were very popular and to top it off, they were complex timepieces. Skeleton faced dials were not popular then, so many watchmakers hide the complex inner workings of a pocket watch behind a pure and simple faces. This was the very same inspiration behind the Portofino line. Simplicity, purity and an honest allure. In fact, the Portofino wristwatch was actually adapted from a pocket watch.
