Some more wrist shots of the rose gold chrono classic.
Apologies for the poor quality, the lighting was not optimal and i had a few beers.

To me, this is a great watch --it's on my short list.
But it won't be an immediate candidate for a collectors' forum watch. As a new model, it can't be used until 2014 or, here as a mid-year introduction, possibly until 2015. I am working with IWC on a different model,in a different product line,that I believe you'll really like. And I'm thinking sooner.

Awesome watch! It was worth to complain 2 years ago to Herr Baumann in person we needed a Portuguese chronograph with in-house movement :)
Glad to see it this year on one of my best forum friend's wrist.
I like it a little less than ref. 3714 to tell the truth but it's a beauty anyway!
CF III? MF is taking care of it? A winner's coming! Yeah!!!
Thank you IWC for making our hearts beating fast!

At SIHH, one forum member had the guts to ask Georges Kern "when will we see a CF3?" He replied "Michael and I will work it work it out". Some thought he was gracefully dodging the question, but with some audacity I took him up directly on it. He asked me for ideas, and then Herr Kern came up with a watch that the Product Management and Design departments are now working on.
I cannot promise anything until it's all finalized. But getting the endorsement from Herr Kern on a specific model is about as good it gets in IWC world.

Finally, an attractive new IWC that isn't 'Super Sized'.
I might just buy one of these.

ConnoisseurSteel, inhouse movement, 42mm and Santoni strap. This is going to be a winner.

Well, this new Portuguese Chrono is easily the watch of the year 2013 until now. I seriously thought for a moment: what was the other line presented this year? If there will be a new watch this year, then no Ingenieur, only this new Chrono: did I see it right, steel case, white dial, blue hands and numbers? That would be the super sporty version, great!
Kind regards,

This is amazing! but now I have a conundrum... was going to get the 3714-45 but now with this.... oh boy...
What is the MSRP on the new Port Chrono Classic silver dial anyway? and I guess the rose gold one as well? I can only imagine it being on par with the 5001 if not more...
-
MasterThey are both now listed in the "Collection" section of the website. It gives you an opportunity to look at all the variations...with the prices!

I really love the new chrono. To my eye, it significantly improves on the 3714 and I'm a big fan of the movement as well. And it just gets better with the 390403 -- white dial with silver hands and numerals plus that fantastic blue second hand. This one definitely goes on the ever-growing list.

Where in the Collection section can I find the MSRPs?
At least for me it just gives contact info for "concierge", or have I missed something?

This differs per country. US should be able to view prices, me in the Netherlands also can't.
