For the Portuguese Hand-Wound, IWC chose one of the original dials from 1939 that hasn’t been seen in this form for a long time: it features alternating Arabic numerals and markers, while an additional circle separates the centre of the dial.

The 98295 calibre is also used in the Portuguese Hand-Wound: with a frequency of 2.5 Hz, it features a large screw balance, Breguet spring, nickel-plated nickel-silver three-quarter plate and bridges decorated with circular graining and Geneva stripes. The see-through sapphire glass back provides an unimpeded view of the index, which reaches from the balance bridge to the plate.
