IWC Portugieser IW503302

The case measures 44.2mm across. Case material: Steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

Automatic, IWC Cal. 52610 (Pellaton winding), 7-day power reserve. Power reserve is 168 hours. It beats at 28,800 vph.

It is rated to 30 meters, about 98 feet. That covers rain and hand washing. It is not rated for swimming. One caution that applies to every watch on this page: a water resistance figure describes a new watch with fresh gaskets. On a piece that is years past its last service, treat the rating as unknown until it has been pressure tested.
