    I never can tell which is the official name of this watch. But whatever it is, my camera likes it.

    I would say Portugieser

    As IWC is based in the German speaking Schaffhausen, Portugieser seems more appropriate as the official name. But of course here at the English speaking forum it is OK to call it Portuguese.

    Your pictures are about the best I have ever seen. Please, don't stop presenting them here, let the pride and joy prevail.

    Kind regards,
    Paul, wearing steel VC Portuguese, called Portugieser 1939 at the back

    "Doll-Face" would be appropriate!

    That sure is a great looking watch Harry- thanks for the pics.
