IWC Portofino 35800 MKS Factory Review

IWC Portofino 35800 model is produced by MKS Factory with a solid stainless steel case, standard case diameter and high-precision automatic Super Clone movement architecture. It is among the most successful 1:1 super clone watch reviews on the market, with its sapphire crystal AR coating glass, original case tolerances and detailed workmanship.

MKS new product launch: Portofino series moon phase automatic watch! Three “special” details that stand out:

1: IWC Cal.35800 movement with real moon phase function, specially produced with great investment; Most other versions on the market are day-night discs!

2: The only manufacturer on the market with Portofino bar signal processing technique; Exactly the same effect as the original workmanship, the overall texture of the dial surface is better!

3: Thanks to the specially produced mechanism, the dimensions are the same as the original: 40*11.1 mm; other versions on the market are much thicker!

MKS Factory IWC Portofino Moon Phase · Workmanship Review

The case of the MKS IWC Portofino watch is forged from 316 stainless steel and shaped in one piece with high-level CNC workmanship. A combination of bright polished workmanship and fine brushed workmanship has been applied on the case surface. The case and case back have been further processed, and the case back screws have been remoulded. The relief structure at the bottom of the blue dial is very clear; It is far superior to the cheaper versions on the market.

All hour markers have been molded from scratch and processed one step further than the current version; The surface texture of the marks has been improved and their roundness has become better. All three main hands, hour, minute and seconds hand, are processed with high-end rhodium plating, thus improving the surface texture and color.

The moon phase indicator below twelve o'clock is the most fascinating and beautiful of all complications. It was designed as a night sky studded with stars; The moon and stars seem to float in the endless sky. The moon phase presents us with different scenes: sometimes the moon appears among the clouds, and sometimes it hangs under the night sky where the stars shine.

On the movement side, MKS Factory had the CAL.35800 movement specially produced with a large investment. This mechanism rotates once a month and performs the same function as the original.

The strap is made of imported calfskin and completed with high-level hand stitching workmanship. The buckle is forged from stainless steel and is in the form of a pin buckle. The pin buckle is also the newest version; It is entirely made of imported stainless steel, has a certain curve and the writings on it are clear.

Summary: In general view, the dimensions are exactly the same; The dial finish and glass transparency are highly consistent, the hour markers are all individually molded and platinum plated. So much so that even each screw can be replaced with the original. In terms of appearance and texture, the super clone level has been reached, it is very difficult to distinguish it from the original. Thank you for reviewing.
