Portugieser Yacht Club Worldtimer Stainless Steel

In Context

At 45.4 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. At 14 mm it is a tall case, and it will catch on a cuff. The case back is closed, so the movement stays out of sight, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 60 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. 42 hours of reserve carries it overnight, but not through a weekend in a drawer. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

IW3266-02 is one of 2 executions of the IW3266 base reference. Underneath they are the same watch; what separates this one is a grey dial and a stainless steel case. It was a limited edition. Beyond the time it carries a gmt.

Nieuwe versie van de 30750. Het verschil is ons niet helemaal bekend.
