Hi everyone! I recently bought a IWC Portugieser Chronograph IW371482. I cant tell if the watch is authentic or a copy. I post some pictures here if anyone could give their opinion. Would really appreciate it. Thank you!

GraduateNo comment from my side - because of the known reason.
Just one remark: Who in his right mind would ever buy a red gold Portugieser without knowing if the watch is authentic or not? For a multi-thousand dollar watch, woudn't it make sense to check authenticity prior to the purchase? My conclusion is that asking such a question is already quite doubtful...

I second that remark/question. How could you buy such a watch without being sure?
My remark is: Even if the watch is authentic, there could be some other issues with it e. g. it could be stolen. -
