The New IWC Portugieser Eternal Calendar

When it comes to IWC watches, the first thing that comes to mind is the ‘Pilot’s Watch’. Over the years, IWC Replica Swiss Movement has continuously improved on the existing mechanism and introduced innovative timepieces, such as the perpetual calendar with digital display of date and month, as well as the Portuguese perpetual calendar with dual month display for both the northern and southern hemispheres.

IWC Portugieser Eternal Calendar

This year, IWC has taken a big step in the history of its most iconic complex features. This super perpetual calendar is called a secular calendar and will not require any adjustments for at least the next thousand years. Oh, this movement also comes with an unprecedented precision moon phase indicator as an additional bonus. Here, we bring you the details of the newly named IWC Portugieser Eternal Calendar Replica Watches For Sale and our honest ideas.

The Case, Dial, and Hands

The case size of the Portuguese Eternal Calendar is 44.4mm x 15mm. It sounds very big, indeed, but it is also impressive because despite the significantly enhanced movement functionality, it is only 0.2 millimeters x 0.1 millimeters larger than the standard version of the IWC Replica Watches Online. The case is made of platinum, which seems to be the correct choice for the brand’s first and currently only secular calendar watch.

The most drastic change in appearance comes from the dial. The main dial is made of glass, frosted and white paint, which is refreshing. IWC went further by using a separate glass sub dial as a display for secular calendars. On the one hand, this novel aesthetic damages readability and appears lifeless. On the other hand, the layered glass gives the Replica Watches For Sale a ethereal beauty. The sub dial at the 12 o’clock position has permanent lunar phase displays for both the northern and southern hemispheres, as well as an age indicator for the moon. The secondary dial at the 3 o’clock position displays the date and power reserve radially.

The Movement

The highlight of the automatic movement is its super-accurate perpetual calendar, known as the secular calendar. The secular calendar watch may not be a new invention, but the number of examples that existed prior to this year could literally be counted on one hand. But just how is the secular calendar more accurate than the perpetual calendar? It’s all got to do with the lesser known rules of the leap year.

The Competitive Landscape

At first glance, the price would seem high for a watch whose finishing is more industrial than artisanal. But it’s important to note that integrating the secular calendar module and changing the gearing for the moon phase are no simple tasks. There’s also economics at play: the IWC Replica Buy Now is the first truly ‘accessible’ wristwatch with a secular calendar complication and a bonus moon phase indicator of record-breaking accuracy.

Putting aside the irony, Portugal’s eternal calendar is indeed a revelation. It has a legitimate secular calendar and is the most accurate lunar phase indicator ever manufactured, thanks to clever watchmaking techniques. This Replica Watches For Discount is by no means cheap, but compared to similar alternatives on the market, you will be happy to buy one now at a regular boutique.

The Most Impressive IWC Replica Watch

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.

The Best New IWC Big Pilot’s Watch AMG G 63

Many people dream of owning a Porsche or Ferrari, and I did too as a kid. But for many years now, it has been the G-Class that I consider my absolute dream car. It doesn’t have to be a Mercedes-AMG G 63 (AMG); I will also settle for a G 500.

IWC Big Pilot’s Watch AMG G 63

However, after opening the email, I went silent for a while. I can’t remember for how long, but I needed time to recover from this confrontation. I love the G-Class car and the Big Pilot’s Replica Watch from IWC, so where exactly did it go wrong in my head?

Two counters in a B-Uhr

I quickly identified that the dial layout of the new IWC Big Pilot’s Replica Watch AMG G 63 doesn’t work for me. The classic Big Pilot’s watch (today’s ref. IW501001) looks right, though you could debate the date window. The large central seconds hand is essential to any Beobachtungsuhr, but IWC decided to put that into a small sub-dial at 9 o’clock.

Aside from the small seconds hand at 9 o’clock, the white rings around the sub-dials are out of place. According to the press release, however, these white rings should remind you of the headlights of a G-Class car. Okay.But that’s not my only beef with the design. It also concerns the gold case and black dial.

Armor Gold

Black and gold is a color combination that I don’t mind, and AAA IWC Replica Watches says it’s inspired by the recently introduced Mercedes-AMG G 63 “Grand Edition”. I think IWC should have used more black on this watch and less gold to make it a proper G 63 “Grand Edition” commemorative piece.

IWC’s gold for the case and crown is called Armor Gold. This 5N alloy ensures better protection against wear and tear since it is harder than regular 18K gold. The alloy’s ingredients remain a secret, but IWC indicates that this gold has an improved microstructure to achieve greater hardness.

The black version with a Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) case

Perhaps a black case would be better, like the one for ref. IW506201. Essentially, this is the same watch as the gold Big Pilot’s Replica Watches Swiss Movement AMG G 63 but in a black Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) case with slightly larger and thicker dimensions. If IWC had put in a full-gold dial with black sub-dials in a black case, that would have been more in the spirit of the car.

Air intake

Anyway, the black dials of the IWC Big Pilot’s Watch AMG G 63 references have a special motif. At first, I thought it was based on the motif of the typical AMG leather interior, but IWC indicates that it is inspired by the air intake you can find in the bumper of the G 63. The sub-dials have a snailed finish, and, unlike the standard version of the Big Pilot’s Watch, Luxury IWC Replica decided to apply the numerals and hour markers instead of printing them. The watch is more luxurious in its details, just like AMG models are.

Caliber 52010

Inside the IWC Big Pilot’s Copy Watch AMG G 63 is the self-winding caliber 52010. As the sub-dial at 3 o’clock indicates, it offers a seven-day power reserve. The movement is beautifully decorated and visible through the sapphire crystal in the case back.
