Description
Superb craftsmanship for connoisseurs: the Portuguese Hand-Wound. Like the watch that founded the family, it features a pocket watch movement and arched-edge front glass. Another characteristic feature is the simple dial with its railway track-style chapter ring, feuille hands and Arabic numerals. A distinctive, eye-catching feature in the totalizer is the signal red ?��60?��.
This reference, the IW5454-06, features a rose gold case with an ardoise dial.
Movement
The IWC manufacture 98300 calibre is almost identital to the 98295 calibre.
The Vintage Collection Pilot's Watch has a thicker dial and therefore more clearance is needed. Its cannon pinion is a few millimeters taller, even though the movement itself has the same height in specifications.
The case construction of the Vintage Pilot (IW3254) needed more height than the Vintage Portuguese (IW5445) and the dial was part of that design. That in turn caused a one part replacement and cal. 98295 became 98300.
