IWC Portugieser Automatic 40 – Blue Dial | Ref. IW358305 | Complete set A modern classic that’s wonderfully wearable, this Portugieser Automatic 40 delivers the iconic IWC dress‑watch look in an ideal, everyday‑friendly size. The deep sunburst blue dial is delivered with clean, applied Arabic numerals and elegant feuille hands, framed by the Portugieser’s trademark railway‑style minute track and a well‑balanced small‑seconds subdial at 6.00. It reads as timeless, not trendy—perfect for boardroom, dinner, or special events. Built around IWC’s in‑house Caliber 82200, the watch uses the brand’s signature Pellaton winding system with modern ceramic components for durability, and stores roughly 60 hours of power—a meaningful upgrade over many dress watches. The exhibition caseback lets you admire the finishing and rotor, underscoring the blend of craftsmanship and practicality. Independent hands‑on testing has highlighted the movement’s thoughtful engineering, including a free‑sprung balance and the ceramic Pellaton parts, noting that the watch’s slightly thicker case is a justified tradeoff for this robust movement.   At 40.4 mm across, it keeps the Portugieser identity but in a more versatile footprint, and is sized to suit a wide range of wrists without feeling oversized. Review coverage describes the case as solidly executed with clean finishing, still maintaining the instantly recognizable Portugieser aesthetic. Asking 4,700 + Insured shipping OBO
