This was one of my favorite IWC, this Portuguese 7 Days, with its plexy its round indices, its leaf shaped hands and its black dial.

In the beginning, I really liked the rose gold as well, but my love for rose gold went down to a minimum. GEO

I actually have been wearing mine since Sunday. These older IWCs are such gems. Great shot my friend. Jorge

I love everything about it. As far as I remember it was one of your stolen watches? Because I can't imagine, that you would have sold it. Not even to finance your JLC MR or another of your marvels.
