The Legacy of the Portugieser Collection
Originally introduced in the 1930s for two Portuguese businessmen, the IWC Portugieser was designed with maritime precision and oversized pocket watch movements in mind. This commitment to legibility and accuracy remains at the heart of the modern collection. Today, the Portugieser stands as one of IWC's most iconic families — celebrated for its clean dial layout, railroad track-style chapter rings, and applied Arabic numerals.
Modern interpretations include a range of complications, from the Portugieser Chronograph to the Annual Calendar and Tourbillon Retrograde models. Every piece is crafted in Schaffhausen with IWC's meticulous in-house movements and rigorous quality control. Whether you're seeking a reliable dress watch or a technically impressive statement piece, the Portugieser collection offers versatility, tradition, and style.

The IWC Portugieser is a luxury watch collection known for its precision, nautical-inspired design, and elegant aesthetic. It is one of IWC Schaffhausen's most prestigious model families.
The Portugieser was originally known as the "Portuguese" due to its creation for Portuguese merchants in the 1930s. IWC later updated the name to the German "Portugieser" to reflect its Schaffhausen heritage.
The collection includes both automatic and manual winding models, with many watches powered by IWC's in-house calibers such as the 52010 or 69355.
