Wanting your thoughts
I’m torn on which IWC to get next. I keep looking at the Yacht Club or the automatic. See the pics. Definitely would go with the slate dial for the yacht club but if I do the automatic I’m torn between the attached black dial or the same model with the white face. Since we now have an IWC forum I’d like to here from my fellow enthusiasts. Thanks
I would take the Yacht with the grey dial. It is perfekt.
Just as elegant as the Portugieser Auto and as sporty as the white dial. I think the grey version has it all.
A very cool watch. Take your time and enjoy the process! Best, Reuven

If your budget allows you to do it, there is also a WG Portuguese with a slate grey dial. [nt]

Based purely on aesthetics...
I'd go for the 5007. But, since you are open to a chrono version, I'd seriously consider the new 3716. Or, if you prefer, IWC still has a ton of 3714's with the tried and true 7750 based movement in its coffers. IMO, these are the most beautiful in the Portuguese lineup.
The Portugieser
It is an iconic piece from IWC and with a black dial very cool.
It is also slightly smaller in diameter than the chrono.
