    They are both really beautiful with the white dial and the blue hands. Me, I have chosen the Portofino. The moonphase is just stunningly beautiful! So, if you have the possibility to get the Portfino, I would definitely take it. Also, because there are only 350 pieces out there whereas the Portugieser exists 1‘000 times.

    Greetings

    I picked up the Portofino moonphase a couple of months before the Portugieser came out and I'm very very happy. I ended up passing on the Portugieser my boutique had on hold for me, just for that very fact. If you can get both, DO IT. The Portofino wears a little larger than the Portugieser both have their charm, but I'm very happy with my decision.

    Probably I'd choose the Portugieser and change the strap to a brown Santoni. I prefer the regular Portofino moonphase but of course this special Jubilee edition is a blast too.
    Tough choice anyway. Good luck! But you can't do something wrong here. Either option is a blast!

    They are both awesome, but I just love the DNA of the Portugieser, which is almost my perfect watch!hello , what do you guys think about both watches

    Moon phase looks too big on smaller wrists but a modern classic if you can pull it off.. Portuguese is timeless and classic. Can’t go wrong either way.

    You might say I'm biased, but for me I would only consider the Portuguese 8 Days. 

    I love how simple and minimal the dial is which makes how it's so functional and easy to read the time. The case design is also just classic.

    Make sure you do try both of them on.

    One thing to consider is if you enjoy winding the watch and how that feels. If the crown is too small on the Portuguese 8 Days, it will take forever to fully top off such a long power reserve.
