Beautiful dial. Remind me of the Breguet Classique enamel. I am a sucker for breguet hands, hence happy to see this pic.

IWC Portofino. When big is beautiful.
By: amanico : September 5th, 2022-08:31
Ok it is a 46 mm case, but quite thin ( 11 mm ) and the short and thin lugs makes it very wearable. And beautiful! Best, Nicolas ...

Sublime ! I met some-one wearing this watch a few ago - it looked wonderful on the wrist and very wearable.

The 5251 is one of very few yellow gold watches that I desire.

I once had the chance to try on the vintage "original" Portofino, and while I was in love with the watch on pictures I did not have a love-at-first-sight experience with it in the flesh...
By: montres1 : September 5th, 2022-10:15
I almost regreted it ! And even now when I see it in photos I am still disappointed not to have liked it that much ! Undoubtedly IWC at its best, this re-edition is prety nice and somehow faithful to the original one

Hard to believe it’s 46mm!
By: takman : September 5th, 2022-10:56
Almost an oxymoron with the classic dial and large case.

Fully agreed with you Nico, what a nice one
By: Mike H : September 5th, 2022-16:26
My taste goes for smaller size in general but here I would be happy to make an exception

I always loved the dial and pocket watch vibe but thought they were too large and wished they'd done it in 40-42.
By: Blansky : September 5th, 2022-17:01
Most early pocket watches were not even 46mm.
