Amanico shares his admiration for the IWC Portuguese line, focusing on the Ref. 5445 with its manual winding Caliber 98295. He highlights its aesthetic appeal, particularly the superb dial and pleasant movement, while also noting his personal reservation about its 44mm diameter. His detailed photos invite the community to appreciate this specific reference.
with a decent power reserve, and which is pleasant to the eye, a superb dial... without date, and a nice case, even if I find it a tad too big with its 44 mm diameter, a feeling enhanced by the fact that it is not too thick ( circa 10 mm ). 
thanks for sharing Nico.
This is another I used to own that I sometimes miss..... not as much as the pt Richard Lange, but I was fond of it. An unpretentious nice movement we know well that is reliable and a pleasure to wind. A gorgeous dial. 10 mm thick so very nice, but at 41-42 mm diameter and it would have been perfect, because it is a Portuguese and needs size. But at 44mm it felt like a flying saucer on my average wrist. To me, the dial was killer. Nice photos Nicolas.
Wonderful dial, gorgeous ! 38/39 would have been super classy!!
And the fact that thereβs no date makes the watch even better. Thanks for sharing
the only small details that I would change is to have the old italic IWC logo instead of the modern one....
