This year’s IWC ‘Laureus Sport for Good’ edition takes the form of a 39mm Portofino Chronograph.
The ongoing annual series of charitable watches released by IWC in partnership with the Laureus Sport for Good organisation centres on a different model within the Schaffhausen brand’s collection every year.
