    Hi there, Can anyone help me in identifying this model? Serial no 2483062. It's manual winding.

    Hi Flatlander,

    this is a Portofino Ref 2010. A super flat watch equipped with a manual wind calibre 185. The 185 stands for the hight of the movement of 1.85mm. This is a quite rare gem, that is not made in large numbers. As you mentioned it is manual wind and has nothing to do with automatic. The case is made of 18ct gold.

    Thank you for the reply! Interesting, the person I received it from was always interested in flat watches. He also had a quartz(!?!?) Vacheron that was extremely thin.

    Beautiful piece - love the script signature on the dial.
