IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Eight Days
In not-so-inconspicuous strategies catering to presumably affluent consumers, a number of watch brands engage in elaborate marketing exercises during the annual Art Basel Miami show for modern and contemporary art. This year, IWC showcased its new Portofino Midsize collection amid the swank sun-drenched pool deck of the W South Beach. That's nice and all, but in all honesty, what caught our eyes were the classic IWC watches on both staff and guests, as well as a few non-brand outliers that some intrepid attendees sported on their wrists.
