From automatic winding and chronograph to the moon phase and day-and-night complications, the collection focuses on the modern woman while also adopting a sustainable approach to timepieces.
The New Portofino collection features a stunning set of women's watches that cater to various styles, preferences and tastes. These skillfully decorated timepieces, many of which feature diamonds, are a perfect addition to the IWC women's collection of watches.

At the same time, the Portofino Automatic 37 and Portofino Automatic Moon Phase 37 are available in various materials and dial colours with diamond bezels and traceable leather straps, with the latter featuring the fascinating moon phase complication.
Taking a crucial step into the world of traceable straps with their recent Portofino collection, IWC offers traceable Swiss leather straps on their timepieces. Each of these straps comes with a unique code that can be used to trace the origin of the leather used to make the strap.
An integral part of IWC, the Portofino has been adored by women all over the globe for its classic and timeless designs. Recent additions to the collection include the 34, 37 and 39mm models that appeal to a broader range of buyers and collectors. A seamless blend of aesthetics and meticulous structure, the Portofino Automatic Moon Phase 37 is designed to display changes in the moon's shape against a glimmering night sky design featured on the dial. A lesser-known fact about this watch feature is that the moon phase display represents an era when watches hadn't come into being and time was measured based on the moon's direction. IWC offers three variations of the Automatic Moon Phase 37, each with different combinations of materials and hues and a selection of leather and gold metallic straps.
With an enhanced collection of timepieces featuring a 37mm case diameter, IWC also unveiled the Classic Portofino Automatic 37 in six variations.
