Portugieser Steel Salmon Dial 40mm

About the Model

The IWC Portugieser (ref. IW358313) distills one of the brand’s most enduring designs into a streamlined 40mm format, pairing classic proportions with contemporary engineering. Introduced in 2023, this reference draws directly from the original 1930s ref. 325 but adds a subtle visual distinction – a pink salmon dial that softens the nautical-rooted aesthetic with warm sophistication.

The stainless steel case houses IWC’s in-house calibre 82200, an automatic movement equipped with a Pellaton winding system and a 60-hour power reserve. The clean, open dial layout features applied Arabic numerals, feuille hands, and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock – all protected under a sapphire crystal. Water-resistant to 30 m, the watch wears slim and balanced on the wrist, thanks to its compact case and domed architecture.

The IW358313 brings an uncommon dial colour to the Portugieser range, attracting collectors who appreciate restrained originality within a historically rich framework. With its quietly distinctive execution, it offers a compelling bridge between traditional marine chronometer design and modern daily wear.Read More
