    my 5001, that is. When I was at SIHH I left my 5001 in the trusted hands of the Schaffhausen watchmakers for a bit of a tune up and some case polishing. The UPS man delivered it today.

    Like everyone else who has had their IWC's refreshed, I am extremely pleased with the end result. This quintessential Portugieser looks like new. I will time it over the next few days, but I am sure it will run perfectly.

    Pics of the returning Portuguese.
