The IWC Portofino collection underwent a major revamp in 2015 but new or old, this classical timepiece has always been a favourite among connoisseurs.
Life’s good in Portofino. If you’ve not yet been to this Italian fishing village along the Ligurian coastline, no offence but you’re probably not a Holly wood star. Dotted with colourful buildings lining the shore, the picturesque harbour here has welcomed dignitaries, royalty, numerous celebrities and creatives across the decades and till today. Think Sir Winston Churchill, Prince Ranier III and Princess Grace of Monaco, stars like Rita Hayworth, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, Clarke Gable, Humphrey Bogart, Denzel Washington, Rod Stewart, Barbra Streisand, George Clooney, and the list goes on. With its easy, laid-back charm so richly redolent of the quintessential Italian dolce vita lifestyle, the village draws the elite and the adventure seekers, and so does the IWC Portofino timepiece.
