IWC Titanium Strap Watches

SIHH 2010: IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar (Ref. IW5023)The Swiss brand has once again updated its gorgeous IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar range extending the line with three extra model and two choices of metal (now you can get it in red gold and white gold, too).The most appealing to yours truly is the model ref. IW5023 with its traditional moon phase display and a perfect combination of blue dial and white gold case reminding of a frozen blue flame.Powered by the same Calibre 51613 automatic movement as the earlier iterations of the model, the IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar Ref. IW5023 features the same complex functionality perfectly displaying current day, date, day of week, month, four digit year and moon phase.The only disadvantage of this movement is that it will need date correction on February 28, 2100, but that is hardly a problem, unless you plan to live another 90 years.

The new Portofino collection will be launched in 2011 and will consist of four new models (an automatic, a chronograph, a dual-time and a hand-wind with 8 day power reserve). Ref. 5101 Available in 18kt rose gold and in stainless steel. Movement is the new IWC in-house caliber 59210 (measures 37.8mm). It comes with a leather strap by the Italian shoe makers Santoni, and is exclusive to IWC.
