──────────────────
Estimated year of manufacture
Estimated production period: circa early 2000s.
The IW3533 generation belongs to the Portofino models IWC offered in the early 2000s. For the IW353301, examples known include some from the mid-2000s.
An exact individual year of manufacture cannot be determined without dated documentation. The production period is therefore deliberately given as an estimate.
──────────────────
Case
The round case is made of stainless steel and has a diameter of 38 mm.
The design is typical of the classic Portofino line: a thin polished bezel, rounded case flanks, and long, gracefully shaped lugs. This gives the watch an elegant and spatial feel despite the relatively traditional diameter.
The polished surfaces are in neatly used condition. There are light superficial scratches and signs of wear consistent with normal use. There are no major damages or heavy dents.
──────────────────
Dial
The silver/white dial is unusually calm in its design and forms the main character element of this Portofino.
Below 12 o'clock sits the IWC logo and the text SCHAFFHAUSEN. Above 6 o'clock is AUTOMATIC and along the bottom SWISS MADE.
The hours are indicated by slim applied metal baton indices. At 12 o'clock there is a double index, making orientation immediately recognizable.
Along the outer edge is a fine black minute track.
The dial is in very well-maintained condition and has retained its clear, classic look.
──────────────────
Hands
Time is displayed by slim, polished baton hands for hours and minutes.
A very fine central seconds hand sweeps almost the full diameter of the dial and aligns with the minute scale along the outer edge.
The minimalist hand design complements the understated dress watch appearance of the Portofino.
──────────────────
Date
There is a separate date window at 3 o'clock.
The date is black on a light background and is therefore easy to read without strongly interrupting the symmetrical character of the dial.
──────────────────
Movement
Inside sits the automatic IWC caliber 30110.
Caliber: IWC 30110
Type: mechanical automatic
Base: ETA 2892-A2
Jewels: 21
Frequency: 28,800 A/h
Power reserve: approx. 42 hours
Functions: hours, minutes, central second, and date
The caliber 30110 is a relatively slim automatic movement, which fits well with the elegant proportions of this Portofino.
──────────────────
Timegrapher measurement
The performed measurement yields the following values:
Rate deviation: −2 seconds/day
Amplitude: 251°
Beat error: 0.0 ms
Lift angle: 52.0°
Frequency: 28,800 A/h
The measured rate deviation of −2 seconds per day and a beat error of 0.0 ms are neat values during this measurement.
A timegrapher reading is always a snapshot in a single measurement position and does not guarantee future accuracy or the full technical condition of the movement.
──────────────────
Glass
The watch is fitted with sapphire crystal.
The crystal is clear and provides good visibility of the light dial. There are no notable heavy damages that affect legibility.
──────────────────
Crown
On the right side is the ridged crown.
The crown bears the IWC Probus Scafusia emblem and, given its relatively compact size, blends well with the elegant case shape.
──────────────────
Case back
The Portofino has a closed stainless steel case back.
The central portion is brushed, while the surrounding case parts are polished. The number 3062192 is engraved on the back.
The back shows light surface scratches and signs of wear, but overall is in well-kept condition.
──────────────────
Stainless steel bracelet
The watch is equipped with a finely linked stainless steel IWC bracelet.
The band consists of several narrow, rounded links and thus has a smooth and almost beads-of-rice-like character. This bracelet gives the watch a clearly different look than the typical Portofino variants on leather.
The many polished links visually align nicely with the high-gloss finished case.
The bracelet shows normal light signs of wear but otherwise looks very well kept.
──────────────────
Clasp
The stainless steel bracelet features an IWC-signed folding clasp.
The outer clasp element clearly reads IWC. The clasp and adjacent links show light surface scratches consistent with normal use.
──────────────────
Wrist size
In the current configuration, the bracelet fits a wrist circumference of about 18 to 18.5 cm.
The final fit also depends on wrist shape and desired wear clearance.
──────────────────
Condition
Case: neatly used condition with light hairlines and superficial scratches
Bezel: well maintained, with light signs of wear
Dial: very neat condition
Indices and hands: well maintained
Sapphire crystal: clear, without notable heavy damage
Case back: light normal signs of use
Stainless bracelet: neatly used condition with light scratches
Clasp: light signs of use
Crown: IWC-signed
Movement: −2 sec/day, 251° amplitude, and 0.0 ms beat error
──────────────────
Overall condition
An elegant IWC Portofino Automatic in a particularly timeless configuration. The 38 mm stainless steel case, calm silver/white dial, and fine stainless IWC bracelet confer a classic look that is suitable for both formal and daily wear.
The watch is overall in neat used condition. The dial presents very nicely, while the case, bracelet, and clasp show only light, normal signs of wear. The measured rate deviation of −2 seconds per day is also a respectable value during the performed timegrapher test.
