IWC Vintage Collection - Portofino  0 Comments

Published Wednesday, May 21, 2008 by Harry SK Tan |

 


For me one of the highlights from IWC this year is the remake of six of their most successful pieces put together as the Vintage Collection. I was invited to be amongst the first in Singapore to photograph the 2008 Novelties - there were many, but I concentrated on the watches that interest me. As with many IWC fans, it was the Vintage Portuguese and Vintage Portofino being two of most recognisable watches from the IWC stable. Both share the same base movement - the FA Jones Caliber which I had previously photographed in great detail before.
Here is the first of two cover shots - the Vintage Portofino. Click on it to see it in full size.
