Super Tonny !!!
Many here will like me, the fist time I saw the IW3710, think we are being taken for the mickey! Why would anyone need 4 pushers and a crown on one single watch? So the imagination runs wild. It's a Patpong Nightmarket Edition, which is also available for just 50,000 Bah more in the Deluxe version!
But it is indeed a magnificent timepiece from I guess around the first half of the eighties (1983-84) Limited to 150 pieces.

Beautifully in design and finish!

My first attempt failed so I am trying again...Ask and Ye shall receive, a starry sky with a glint of moon...

Thank you all for the great contributions and Skule in particular. It looks to be tough to capture that starry sky on your beautiful PPC!

Macro shot of the new moon disk position. This is the 5022 model. The new reference has actual starts instead of the Aventurine crystal background.
Wow, incredible detail! This looks just like a real starry sky with the difference of intensities of the light. Great macro shot Bill!
Kind regards,
Clemens
Fantastic shot Bill, thanks! Way beyond the capabilities of my iPhone - maybe I need to invest in a new camera before a new IWC - LoL!
I love those sparkling stars!
Breathtakingly beautiful! Thanks, Bill.
Skule, you did well - I really like that 2nd shot with sliver moon.
Bill, I also want blue and bright stars on my dial...great macros shot Buddy. You continue to amaze us with that macro lens of yours!
Mark, we see far too few pics of your blue beauty! Pick up the camera and start shooting!
Kind regards,

Just received my IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar IW502218. Using my dark brown Santoni with it.
Congratulations on your beautiful Portuguese Perpetual, it's a beauty and you captured it very well in your pictures. Enjoy and wear it in good health.
Kind regards,
Clemens
Thanks, Clemens (Cinq).
This is my second perpetual, the first one is a JLC Master Perpetual which uses the IWC calendar plate on top of a JLC movement (with the calendar plate rotated 180 degrees). Nice to have the IWC Portuguese Perpetual, finally.
Big congrats BIW - that is a gorgeous watch with fantastic movement! I really love the way you captured the moon in your second shot, it almost looks like the real moon with asteroid craters! I know you will enjoy this for many years to come!
