IWC Portuguese Yacht Club Chronograph ��Ocean Racer��
Boat races and watches �C a weird and yet?seemingly ever-green combination. A few years ago, IWC joined the craze and has?chosen to sponsor the Volvo Ocean Race, a remarkably challenging, round-the-world race that starts this October in Alicante, Spain, and terminates in Gothenburg, Sweden, in June 2015.

Watch was made in 2002, so warranty doesn't apply.-Card which includes original owner, individual watch number, purchase date, and authorized dealer.I brought watch to CD Peacock, which has one of few Panerai watchmakers in the Midwest. Couple issues in the gears, which can be fixed with a cleaning. Once done, watch will have a 2 year warranty. Watchmaker is familiar with Panerai, does the work in-house, and val
