IWC Portugieser - Minute Repeater - Rose Gold - 44.2 MM - Silver Dial - IW544907

The Portugieser Minute Repeater showcases a meticulously crafted repeating mechanism comprising approximately 250 intricate parts, akin to a mechanical symphony. Activated by pushing the repeating slide downward, it chimes out the elapsed hours, quarters, and minutes since the last "12" with precise strikes on two differently pitched gongs. Ensuring accuracy, an all-or-nothing mechanism ensures that chimes sound only when the slide is fully depressed. Housing the historic 98950-calibre hunter pocket watch movement from the 1930s, the watch features a transparent sapphire-glass back, offering a glimpse into the stylistic heritage of early F. A. Jones calibres. Limited to just 500 pieces, the 18-carat 5N gold model represents a union of timeless elegance and horological excellence.
