This Portofino Automatic IW356504 showcases a refined 40 mm, 9.5 mm thick polished 18k rose gold case paired with a matching rose gold bezel and smooth, rounded lug. The silver-plated dial, with its satin finish, is adorned with a mix of index hour markers, slender Roman numerals at six and 12, and polished leaf-style hands — all rendered in rose gold for warm contrast. A discreet date window at three o’clock seamlessly integrates into the dial’s clean symmetry.

At the heart of the watch beats IWC’s calibre 35111, an automatic movement running at 4 Hz with a 50-hour power reserve and central hacking seconds. The assembly features 25 jewels and is concealed beneath a solid caseback engraved with an image of the Portofino harbour.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
