IWC has announced the release of a limited run of 1,500 pieces of the Portugieser Chronograph Ceratanium®. It is the first time that the Portugieser line has seen an all-black execution of its watch.

Ceratanium® (ceramized titanium) is as tough and almost as light as titanium but at the same time similarly hard and scratch-resistant as ceramic. Ceratanium® is based on a special titanium alloy that is made specifically for IWC.

Aside from the all black execution, the watch retains all of the familiar features of the Portugieser Chronograph. This 41mm watch is powered by the automatic IWC Calibre 69335 which has a 46 hour power reserve.

Retail price for the piece is at P900,000.00.

IWC is available in the Philippines at its boutique in Greenbelt 5, Makati City. Additionally, IWC is also available in some shop-in-shop locations of Lucerne such as in Shangri-La and Solaire.
