Functional

The IWC Vintage Collection Portuguese Hand-wound Mens Watch IW544501 offers the basic functions of a watch from the hours and minutes plus a small sub-dial for the small seconds perfect for individuals seeking a minimalist yet functional timekeeper. Plus, it’s perfect for heavy use thanks to its scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protection with a decent water resistance of up to 100 feet or 30 meters.

Disadvantages:

Impractical

For someone who seeks a functional yet sophisticated-looking and affordable watch, then this might not be the timepiece for you as it is sold for thousands of dollars.

Inefficiency

Since it’s powered with Swiss made hand wound mechanical movement, sometimes it can gain or lose a few minutes over a month’s time. Therefore, you have to set it regularly to ensure that it provides the accurate time.
