About the IWC 52010

It replaced the single-barrel 51000 family with two barrels, so the week of reserve could be kept at a faster beat of 28,800 vph, and it revised the Pellaton winding system with ceramic pawls against wear and an 18-carat gold medallion on the rotor. It has 31 jewels at 38.2 mm across, with the power reserve shown at 3 o'clock and the date at 6. The Pellaton piece sets out the family and its 168-hour figure.

In the library it powers 13 Portugieser Automatic 5007 references at 42.3 mm, in steel and red gold, and 3 Big Pilots. 6 are limited editions.

The 51011 and 51111 are the single-barrel movements it replaced, and the 52850 and 52615 its annual and perpetual calendar siblings.
