archibald Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Does anyone have a opinion regarding the new Portofino Chrono?? appreciate feedback before I consider buying one Thanks That rep has quite a rack--those pushers look about 25% bigger than the gen. Ditto w/ the crown, which is probably from a larger rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 After a quick look at the IWC website and comparing the pictures from Trusty's website to those on the IWC website i think the replication went quite well... but i'm not familiar with the model. I looks like a simple straight forward chrono so the A7750 hi beat would be a reliable movement in that watch. Subdial layout and spacing is exactly the same. I don't know how the caseback of the original looks like, but i do know they messed up the caseback of the Portuguese... that should be brushed but is pollished steel. On the IWC website i can only find a black dial and a white dial version, both with steel/silver hands and markers, so no cream dial or gold markers like on Trusty's website... Well... if i may advice you, search some more pictures on the internet and compare them with the replica. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobs1971 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 One apparent flaw: it looks like the subdials are not recessed as on the gen. But before we start all over again: hxxp://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=70142 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
