FSOT: IWC PORTUGIESER 44mm Hand Wound F.A. Jones IW545407- Complete -Just Serviced

2013 IWC Portugieser IW545407 44mm hand wound. Purchased new from IWC in 2015, service by IWC in 10/2020 and unworn.

Ultimately I am looking to replace this watch for something else. So I am more inclined to trade this to reduce spread and fees.

Movement: IWC in house F.A Jones pocket watch Calibre 98290 18 jewel with seconds hacking, signature “Jones Arrow” and Breguet balance spring.
Extensive hand finishing: côtes de genève, perlage, polished beveling and Spéculaire (black polished) screws. 44HR power reserve and

Case: Stainless steel. Sapphire crystal, 3 Bar, sapphire display back, high polish w/ contrast brushing, (Brand new crown).
Dail: Black. Applied markers, railroad track printed, red '60' second marker
Lugs: 22mm


Condition: 9/10
Case: Perfect
Strap: Essentially new (original)
Sapphire crystal: Very mild spider webs in the AR coating.

Horologic backstory:

In my opinion it is IWC in their original heritage when they were known for making excellent pocket watches. Which lead them to directly make the Portugieser with this movement.

The MSRP was $10,000 USD and from independent 3rd party information, IWC only make the Portugieser available with this historic handwound movement once every decade.
The other 2 watches previously which had this movement was the 1993 launch of the Portugieser line and then limited edition (500 units) solid platinum model from the mid 2000's.
Apparently, the cost to produce the 98000 series movements is too high which is why they reserve it for the Portugieser minute repeater and perpetual calendar.


Comes with the following:
  • Original Box
  • Manuals &books
  • Hangtag
  • Service documentation & receipt
  • Warranty card (filled)
  • Recent Appraisal for insurance Appraised for $8,000

Thanks for looking and reading. I have the watch listed on eBay where i have a long standing 100% ratting and have sold many high dollar items there.

Asking $6,245

Trades- Looking for: JLC: (master series, Amvox, Polaris Reverso) Panerai 44mm, Breguet Type XX...., Omega's, Rolex.
Anything with 5ATM or higher, auto, 41mm+, date, lume, complete set. Condition is not everything as i want to use it.
