Portofino Pointer Date 39 Laureus Sport for Good

In Context

At 39 mm it sits just under the modern norm — the band that suits the widest spread of wrists. At 10.7 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 50 m covers rain and hand-washing comfortably; it is not a watch to swim in.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 50 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

IW3592-02 is one of 2 executions of the IW3592 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a blue sunburst dial and a stainless steel case. It was a limited edition.
