IWC Launch The Portofino Midsize Collection.

IWC fans and watch aficionados had a great time at a cocktail reception to celebrate the launch of the new Portofino Midsize collection in Singapore. Two separate events were held at their boutiques at Marina Bay Sands and ION Orchard. An artisan from bespoke shoemaker Santoni was also present at the event to showcase their exquisite leather craftsmanship. I’ll let the pics do the talking.
