The Swiss watch manufacture IWC is launching a new edition of the Portuguese Yacht Club Chronograph as part of its “Summer Editions” collection.

Summer has arrived, bringing the promise of pleasantly warm weather and the temptation to cool off with a refreshing dip in the water. Thanks to its water-resistant stainless-steel case with integrated crown guard and its resilient blue rubber strap, the Portugieser Yacht Club Chronograph is the perfect companion for your next sailing trip – or any other summer adventure you might have in mind. The blue dial with white counters, rhodium-plated hands and the red second hand of the chronograph produce an overall look that’s deliberately casual. The 89361-manufacture calibre with fly back function indicates the measured hours and minutes together on a sub dial at 12 o’clock, while the quarter-second scale that surrounds the dial allows for precise measurement of shorter time periods. The transparent case-back in sapphire crystal offers an unimpeded view of the mechanical inner workings of this sporty chronograph.

With a water-resistant stainless-steel case, a blue dial and a resilient blue rubber strap, this sporty chronograph is the perfect watch for the warmer months of this year. IWC is also launching a special collection of matching fabric straps, offered in fashionable blue and light grey and available in all IWC boutiques. These trendy straps are
designed to accessorise selected watches from the Pilot’s Watches, Portugieser and Portofino ranges and will only be available for a limited amount of time.

The second highlight of the “Summer Editions” collection is a special collection of fabric straps that IWC Schaffhausen is launching for some of its most popular classic watches – all available in seasonal designs that use pale blue or light grey colours.

With a clear focus on technology and development, the Swiss watch manufacturer IWC Schaffhausen has been producing timepieces of lasting value since 1868.
