    Hello everyone

    I‘m currently in Japan and took the opportunity to visit the IWC Boutique in Ginza/Tokyo. It was a great experience and the staff was super friendly. It’s a very compact Boutique, I was told the least spacious worldwide, but next year they are going to move to a larger location nearby.

    And now to the highlight watchwise: Have you ever heared of the Portugieser Boutique Edition Ginza? I‘ve never heard of it and also now couldn’t find anything about it on the net. It’s a very elegant IW5007 in stainless steel with a light grey dial and a brown Santoni Croco strag. Behind is an engraving of the boutique and it’s limited to only 55 pieces. But what am I talking, I‘m sure, you want pictures:

    A Beautiful Peice! looks like it was modeled after the 7 day port with stainless steel hands that I am lucky enough to own. 
    Love the etching of the boutque on the back. I have the Big Pilot london edition and it has the carving on the front of the store etched on the back of it. 

    Did you end up taking the plunge and buying that?
