IWC has released four versions of its Portugieser models in this lovely “Horizon Blue” dial color and matching straps. Each of these four watches comes with a fancier 18k white gold case – rather than steel – and they include the Horizon Blue IWC Portugieser Automatic 40, Portugieser Chronograph, Portugieser Automatic 42, and this IWC Portugieser Perpetual Calendar 44 Replica. We’ve previously looked at the redesigned IWC Portugieser Perpetual Calendar 44 watch.

What’s new with the IWC Portugieser case? The bezel is thinner and the crystal has a new box shape, allowing the watch to wear a bit smaller, at least for this larger 44mm wide model. The new Portugieser Best Replica Watches are very comfortable and attractive, but there’s only so much IWC engineers could do given the inherent size of the movement.
That being said, it’s not a small mechanism, and IWC had to put them in a larger case. As a result, the IWC Perpetual Calendar 44 Horizon Blue comes in an 18k white gold case that is 44.4mm wide and 14.9mm thick (water-resistant to 50 meters). Many people like Swiss Replica Watches of this size, but it is certainly not the smallest or thinnest perpetual calendar movement on the market.

The overall dial layout of this generation of IWC’s Portugieser Perpetual Calendar watches has remained virtually unchanged. The dial continues to display the time, the power reserve indicator for the 7-day movement, the moon phases, and a full perpetual calendar display, including a current year counter. People like this 4Hz, 168-hour power reserve watch for its full list of features, as well as its strong autonomy and ample power reserve as an automatic AAA Replica Watches With Box and Papers. The caliber 52616 can be further seen through the sapphire crystal display on the back of the watch. The beautiful automatic rotor is made of 18k red gold.
This roundness may be a signature style of the Portugieser series, but such a reflective part on the dial is not always a good thing, especially when paired with slim polished hands. In the case of this Horizon Blue dial, I think the contrast between the hands and the light blue dial is fine. On other models, readability can change dramatically depending on the light currently hitting the dial.

The 18k white gold IWC Replica Watches For Sale case is paired with a very nice light blue Santoni calfskin strap with an 18k white gold folding clasp. The price of this watch reflects the fact that the case is gold, and unfortunately, IWC does not currently offer the new Portugieser Perpetual Calendar in steel as far as I know. That being said, some other versions of the new Portugieser are available in steel, but not in this Horizon Blue dial color or IWC’s in-house automatic perpetual calendar movement.
