IWC Portofino, what is going wrong
I purchased a steel IWC Portofino about two years ago. I use an Orbita watch winder when not being worn, and wear this watch about twice a week. About a year ago it stopped working. It started acting sporadically, stopping running, then start up again, then ultimately stopped. It sounded like there were loose parts in there, and clicks when winding manually. I took it in and they sent it back to IWC to be fixed. Now it's doing it again. Wasn't working on the shelf, I wore it into work today to take it back to the shop and it started up. Any insight on this issue?

What a day for a Patek aficionado like me !!But as I said...more about this wonderful visit later in a special report coming up a few days later.After the HSWA visit it was time to meet with our friend
