Portugieser Chronograph Rose Gold Silver Dial 41mm

The IWC Portugieser Chronograph (ref. IW371611) updates a modern icon with refined mechanics and a warm redesign in precious metal. First seen as part of the brand’s 150th Anniversary collection, this reference pairs a 41mm 18ct red gold case with a clean silver dial, offering an elevated take on a dial layout familiar to generations of collectors.

A key upgrade lies beneath the surface. Unlike the earlier 3714, the 3716 series features the in-house calibre 69355 – an automatic column-wheel chronograph with a 46-hour power reserve, visible through the sapphire caseback. The dial retains the classic vertical bi-register layout, now paired with gold feuille hands and applied arabic numerals for added depth. Water-resistant to 30m, it balances practical wearability with celebrated aesthetics.

With its combination of heritage styling and contemporary refinement, the IW371611 offers a compelling evolution of IWC’s most recognised chronograph. The use of red gold and a slim bezel lend a dressier profile, while the movement upgrade ensures it remains relevant far into the future.
