One of the highly-anticipated new releases of 2010 is the IWC Portuguese _ IWC 89360 caliber_ IWC Portuguese Yacht Club Yacht Club Chronograph. A decidedly more sporty addition to its classic nautical-themed Portuguese line, the Yacht Club revives a name from IWC’s past. The Yacht Club was one of their top sellers in the 1970s, and looked something like this.
This new one is something special, with its mix of utility and ruggedness with classic good looks. The rubber strap and increased water resistance mean this Portuguese is ready to sail in rough water. The in-house IWC 89360 caliber _ IWC Portuguese _ IWC Portuguese Yacht Club has a flyback function and a smart dial layout, with minutes and hours tracked on a single subdial that reads like a standard clock.
So how does IWC officially launch the IWC Portuguese Yacht Club_IWC 89360 caliber_ IWC Portuguese Chronograph? How about on a yacht in Portugal? Hodinkee is lucky enough to have been invited to Lisbon for a three day nautical experience. IWC is bringing in top skippers who’ve circumnavigated solo and won some prestigious sailing events (Rolex Fastnet Race, anyone?) to give an overview of blue water sailing techniques and then take us out for sea trials. All of this followed by a tour of historic Lisbon, a city that launched some great maritime exploits over the centuries.
Of course, there will undoubtedly be good food, good wine and lots of cool watches IWC Portuguese Yacht Club_IWC 89360 caliber_IWC Portuguese. It all starts tomorrow and I hope to blog from Lisbon, so stay tuned to Hodinkee for updates.
