FS: IWC Portofino Automatic watch - PRICE DROP £2500
IWC Portofino Automatic watch. Silver-plated dial, self-winding mechanism, Milanaise mesh stainless steel strap with folding clasp.
A very classy and understated 40mm dress watch that is well-suited as a day-to-day wearer to the office or indeed for more formal occasions. It really sets off a suit / tuxedo but also adds a touch of elegance to more casual wear, especially with the stainless steel strap.
The watch comes with its original box and papers. The warranty card is dated 2015; I bought it pre-owned from Watchfinder & Co in September 2016.
In truth the watch has hardly been worn (much like my guitars, I have been far too paranoid about damaging it). It's been worn on special occasions but I lost it for over two years(!) in the moving process when I moved to France and my wife initially stayed in the UK. Since lockdowns began in March 2020 I have worn it probably 4-5 times, again only on special occasions. The watch has always been well looked-after when worn and is in excellent+ condition. It's water-resistant but I've never got it wet. The box has some scuffs on the outside and the cleaning cloth and padded watch holder show signs of use. The papers etc. are all pristine.
The reason for sale is twofold. First, I tend not to wear any watch at all these days (I work from home and this is far too nice to wear around the house, IMO). Second, I recently inherited a watch which is not as nice as the IWC but has a lot of sentimental value.
Here is the link to the watch on the IWC site (RRP £5100): https://www.iwc.com/gb/en/watch-collections/portofino/iw356505-portofino-automatic.html
The cheapest I can see pre-owned online is £3350 without the box. I'm asking £2500 for this. I will include the (used) dark grey leather Hirsch strap shown in the photos, as well as an IWC buckle for use with straps other than the Milanaise (this buckle was over €100 to buy separately).
I'm based in Surrey and very happy to drive to meet / deliver (within reason!). Less sure about shipping this but happy to discuss options.
Please message me if you have any questions
