Portugieser Chronograph Steel Silver Dial 41mm

About the Model

The IWC Portugieser Chronograph (ref. IW371617) brings a subtle but impactful evolution to one of the brand’s most recognisable designs, blending traditional cues with contemporary enhancements. Introduced in 2020, this version stands out for its full stainless steel bracelet – a modern departure from the leather straps of earlier Portugieser chronographs – paired with a clean silver dial that highlights the collection’s signature vertical sub-dial layout.

Housed in a 41mm stainless steel case, the watch is powered by the in-house calibre 69355, a column-wheel chronograph movement offering a 46-hour power reserve. The updated model also gains a see-through sapphire caseback, allowing a clear view of the movement’s architecture and finishing. The dial remains faithful to the Portugieser aesthetic – Arabic numerals, feuille hands, and minimal bezel – all enhancing legibility and elegance. Water-resistant to 30m, it maintains the dress-leaning character for which the line is known.

The IW371617 marks a refined yet practical update to the iconic 3714 series, introducing bracelet versatility without sacrificing the understated charm that defines the Portugieser line. For collectors and modernists alike, it bridges heritage styling and mechanical refinement with everyday wearability.Read More
