    in the current IWC collection, as only ref 5001 and 3714 propose a single version. It's surprising given the success of either of these models. I know there were some LE Portuguese in WG with blue hands in the past, but those were very LE and never in the catalogue.

    And you, do you think it should be great to have a broader offer, a PPC in WG or RG with blue hands for instance (as we pretty much all agree that a steel version will never be allowable)?

    Nice combo. Is the strap from the WG? (nt)

    Love that combination myself too!

    There has been a white gold, silver dial and blued hands Portuguese Perpetual. It was the limited (20 pieces!) version for Pisa. For me, that's the most beautiful version of them all.

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    I happen to be a BIG fan of blued hands >

    glad IWC puts it on steel watches where a few other brands reserve it for their white gold and platinum models.
    Don't get me wrong, gold and silvered look great too but I really like blue hands and numerals a lot!

    Hi all! Blued hands are very popular among

    us, but the offer for them in the current collection is very limited, only two watches. And I'm wondering why. Do you have some explanation?
