IW356522 marked the first time the model was paired with a solid 18k 5N gold case and a blue dial, making it a distinct and less common configuration within a largely steel-dominated range. Design and dial: A deep sunburst blue dial sets off solid gold appliqué indices and gold-plated hands, with Roman numerals at 12 and 6 and a discreet date at 3. The warm 5N rose gold against the saturated blue gives a classic Riviera dress-watch character in a versatile 40mm footprint. Movement: Powered by the self-winding calibre 35111, beating at 4 Hz with a 42-hour power reserve and hacking seconds. The solid caseback carries IWC’s engraved Portofino harbour motif. Condition: Pre-owned in Excellent condition, presenting with minimal signs of wear consistent with careful ownership. Inclusions: Offered as watch only, accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, a strong entry point to a solid gold IWC dress piece without the premium attached to full-set examples.
