Yet somehow these simple quartz dress watch look-a-likes seem to net their savvy owners massive piles of dosh.

INTRODUCING: The IWC Portugieser Chronograph Classic lives up to its name
In 1939 when two Portuguese merchants approached IWC about making a wristwatch with the same levels of accuracy usually seen in marine chronometer pocket watches, they had no idea it would be the beginning of a legend and the birth of one of IWC’s most popular collections.
