IWC Schaffhausen Portugieser Chronograph Rattrapante Edition “Boutique Munich” REF. IW371217

Posted on by

Swiss luxury watch maker IWC Schaffhausen celebrated the opening of its boutique at Residenzstraße 13, Munich, on 28 June 2017. After a one-year construction phase of meticulously executed renovations, the historic building in the heart of Munich’s city centre is now shining like new. Inside, it features a modern boutique concept spanning two floors and a total area of around 226 square metres.

With its soft beige hues and dark wooden accents, the IWC boutique furnishing scheme features a bar, a corner fireplace and a seating area, creating a relaxed atmosphere that invites visitors to bask in the stylish surroundings. To mark this special occasion the Swiss watch maker has created the Portugieser Chronograph Rattrapante Edition “Boutique Munich” timepiece.
