Reviews

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

IWC Schaffhausen Iw3716 Portugieser Chronograph

Owners widely praise the IWC Schaffhausen Iw3716 Portugieser Chronograph for its legible and handsome design, with specific appreciation for the contrasting blue subdials on a white dial, often referred to as the "Blue Panda." The comfortable blue rubber strap is noted as versatile, though some suggest a leather strap for formal settings. The in-house automatic Calibre 69355 movement is visible through the display caseback, and its column-wheel chronograph actuation is described as crisp and smooth. One owner reported the watch arriving DOA and found damaged parts during attempted repairs, while another noted that the chronograph function should be used sparingly to avoid issues. The 30m water resistance is considered a minor drawback by reviewers. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the IWC Schaffhausen Iw3716 Portugieser Chronograph highly for its attractive aesthetic and refined movement at its price point.
