====== IWC 59800 ====== Cal. **59800** is an [[hand winding]] movement produced by [[IWC]] starting in [[2017]]. ===== Details ===== IWC has been transitioning to [[in-house]] movements since [[2000]], enhancing the reputation and technical features of their watches. In [[2011]], IWC introduced the [[IWC 59000|Cal. 59000 family]] of [[hand-wound]] [[eight day]] movements. This family features a single [[barrel]] and [[mainspring]] and ticks at a modern [[4 Hz]], making the [[long power reserve|long 192 hour power reserve]] extremely impressive. **Cal. 59800**, introduced with little fanfare in January [[2017]] in the [[IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Moon Phase]], is the only member of this family with a [[moon phase indicator]]. This complication is implemented as a module on [[IWC 59210|Cal. 59210]]. ===== IWC 59000 Movement Family ===== *Main Article: [[IWC 59000]] {{wst>template_iwc_59000_movement_family}} ===== Metrics ===== **Description:** * [[Hand winding]] [[moon phase indicator]] movement **Functions:** * Central hours, minutes * [[Small seconds]] at 6 00 * Date window at 3 00 * [[Power reserve indicator]] at 8 00 * [[Moon phase indicator]] at 12 00 **Data:** * 37.8 mm * 30 [[jewels]] * 28,800 A/h * [[Power reserve]] 192 hours **Production period:** * [[2017]]-current ===== Weblinks ===== * [[https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/the-iwc-portofino-hand-wound-moon-phase-hands-on|The IWC Portofino Hand-Wound Moon Phase]], Hodinkee {{tag>Movements Manual_winding_movements Eight_days_movements IWC_calibres}}
