    Description : Manufacturer: IWC;Year: 1981;Reference No: 325;Movement No: 2'286'258;Case No: 1'455'157, this number is repeated inside the caseback;Model Name: Portugieser the "Missing Link;Material: Stainless steel;Calibre: Manual, cal. 982, 19 jewels;Bracelet/Strap: Leather;Clasp/Buckle: Stainless steel pin buckle;Dimensions: 42mm. Diameter;Signed: Case, dial and movement signed;Catalogue Essay;IWC’s reference 325, known internationally as the “Portugieser” draws its name from the country of origin of the two men who commissioned this piece. It was in the late 1930s that Messrs. Rodrigues and Antonio Teixera, Lisbon wholesalers, approached IWC with a request for a large sized man’s wristwatch with the precision of a marine chronometer.;The original watches were delivered in 1939 but were not a commercial success. The market was not yet ready for a large 42mm watch with a pocket watch movement. Sales were so low that it was no longer even featured in the IWC catalogue starting 1945. In fact up until the 1970s less that 250 examples were documented in the IWC sales.;In 1957, IWC received a new order from Portugal for the reference 325, confident that this was a rebirth for this reference, IWC ordered 100 cases but only 16 watches were assembled and delivered. Hope reared its head in 1973 when a Geneva based dealer Golay Fils & Stahl contacted IWC showing interest in large sized wristwatches. IWC once again made a new batch of the reference 325 using the cases stored away from the 1953 order but this time housing the pocket watch caliber 982, an improved version of the Calibre 98 used in the models originally launched in 1939 but with the integration of a shock absorption system and Glucydur balance. Once again the reference 325 was not met with the success it deserved and these watches ended up in the German market starting 1979 targeting a small but select group of IWC pocketwatch collectors. Ultimately only 57 of these reference 325 with caliber 982 were made.;These models came with various types of dials and hands one distinguishing element being the Baroque Louis XV type hands as found in the present lot.;The reference 325 is now today an extremely coveted and desirable piece, the present model from 1981 from the ultra-rare 57 examples made is called the “Missing Link” as it is a bridge between the original reference 325 from 1939 and the re edition of 1993 made for IWC’s 125th anniversary. In overall excellent condition with its large case, beautiful movement and enticing dial the present watch is a piece of contemporary horological history.

Diameter;Signed: Case, dial and movement signed;Accessories: Accompanied by IWC Extract from the Archives confirming sale of the present watch on January 31, 2008.;Catalogue Essay;During the late 1930s, IWC received a rather unusual order from a customer in Portugal, requesting a wristwatch with the same case size and accuracy of a pocket watch. To meet the needs of this client, IWC created an ultra thin and oversized wristwatch. The result was a timepiece of utmost legibility and the highest precision.;While the very first Portugiesers were fitted with the caliber 74, IWC eventually switched to caliber 98 in the 1940s, which we see on the present watch.;The present watch is distinguished by its luminous Arabic numerals and luminous hands. Portugiesers were usually fitted with leaf hands, making this example particularly rare. Research shows that the present watch was delivered to the wholesaler Kuchàr & Wittmann in Bratislava, Slovakia on April 24th 1946.;Absolutely ahead of its time, the Portugieser is today an incredibly iconic watch that is integral to the DNA of IWC. The firm has constantly reinvented with model with a variety of complications, such as a chronograph function.
