IWC - 2022 Portugieser Automatic 40 IW358303

WHAT WE LOVE:

The IWC Portugieser Automatic 40 IW358303 has the timeless essence of IWC’s most iconic collection into a more wearable, elegant format. Introduced in 2020 and continuing through 2022, this 40.4mm model pays tribute to the original 1939 Portugieser design with its clean Arabic numerals, leaf-shaped hands, and railroad minute track — now refined with modern proportions and an in-house automatic calibre.

Finished in polished stainless steel with a white dial and gold hands, this version is quietly sophisticated, fitting seamlessly into both dress and daily rotation. For those who love the Portugieser heritage but seek something more compact and contemporary, this reference delivers that balance beautifully.

WHAT’S INSIDE:

Powering the watch is the IWC-manufactured Calibre 82200, a robust automatic movement featuring the brand’s proprietary Pellaton winding system and a 60-hour power reserve. The small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock provides visual interest and symmetry, while the see-through sapphire caseback reveals meticulous finishing — including Côtes de Genève and perlage.
