IWC: Portugieser Chronograph Rattrapante Edition “Boutique Milano”
4 July 2016Alongside with the opening of the new IWC boutique in Via Montenapoleone 1, Milan, the Suisse Manufacture presented the new IWC Portugieser Chronograph Rattrapante Edition “Boutique Milano”.
Watch Insanity had the pleasure to discover the latest born in the IWC collection, dedicated to the city of Milan.
Produced in a limited edition of only 100 pieces, this timepiece replaces the previous Portugieser Rattrapante Tribute to Italy, released in 2006, that has been a great success.
The Portugieser Chronograph Rattrapante Edition “Boutique Milano” features the characteristic third pusher for the rattrapante mechanism, a red gold case, blue dial with tachymetric scale and telemetric scale, and an elegant black alligator strap. The inscription of the limited edition “01/100” on the case back of the watch, alongside with the engraving that evokes the “Biscione”, (a grass snake) symbol of the Milanese Visconti family, icon of the city, seals the connection with Milan.
The Portugieser Chronograph Rattrapante Edition “Boutique Milano” will be available exclusively for the Itaians IWC boutiques, until the end of the 2016, and will cost 21.500 €.
