Vasco da Gama?s flagship was a nau dubbed the S?o Gabriel; the new flagship of the most celebrated watch family from IWC is the Portuguese Grande Complication. only the best-qualified helmsmen and navigators of their day were good enough to accompany da Gama?s fleet; in much the same way, the Portuguese Grande Complication, which is water-resistant to 3 bar, unites a wealth of watchmaking?s most outstanding achievements in its 45-millimetre red gold case. These include a perpetual calendar that is mechanically programmed until 2499 (it requires just three adjustments in the non-leap years 2100, 2200 and 2300) as well as a perpetual moon phase display and chronograph. When activated by the slide, the minute repeater chimes out the time precisely in harmonious tones. A globe of the world discreetly engraved with lines of latitude and longitude provides a background to the silver-coloured dial with its solid red gold appliqu?s. on the back cover, an intricate engraving of a sextant ? an indispensable aid to marine navigation along with the watch ? is an unmistakable sign that the watch is part of the Portuguese watch family. The strap is stitched with 18-carat red gold thread.
