Exclusive vehicle watch. The Chronograph 1 - 911 S/T

'For me, it was about creating a watch to match the car.' Like the first 911, the iconic Chronograph I was also designed by Prof. F. A. Porsche – and was the inspiration for this anniversary edition. The design principles for optimum readability have remained unchanged to this day. The chronograph thus combines the best of both worlds. So it only makes sense that the lightweight construction concept of the Porsche 911 S/T has been transferred to the chronograph case, which is made of lightweight titanium. The high-quality details of the dial and the bezel ring in Black echo the display instruments of the 911 S/T. The entire minute scale on the bezel ring recalls the tachometer look – including the '60' highlighted in Red to mark the anniversary. All other numbers, the day and the date complete the look in Phosphorous Green. The White stop-seconds hand matches the colour of the tachometer. Thanks to Superluminova luminous material, the chronograph's minute and hour hands tell you the time even in the dark. A printed gear shift pattern in Silver for the Chronograph 1 – 911 S/T and in Gold for the Chronograph 1 – 911 S/T Heritage underscores the close connection with the manually operated special model. The font of the letters H, M and S for hours, minutes and seconds is also derived directly from the gear shift pattern.

If you think about the function of an object, its form sometimes takes shape by itself. As a result, everything looks as if it is made from a single piece – even if it's made of leather. The leather straps reflect the lightweight construction concept of the 911 S/T, with a symmetrical hole pattern that dispenses with every unnecessary milligram. This is how traditional craftsmanship is combined with modern motorsport technology. The vehicle leather and interior thread used form even closer ties between the sports car and chronograph. The titanium strap, including the folding clasp with the laser-engraved Porsche Design logo, consistently echoes the lightweight construction concept and minimises the power-to-weight ratio on your next fast lap. So the choice is anything but easy, but no matter which version you choose, you will always have the history of 60 years of the 911 on your wrist.

*In markets without a configurator, the strap sizes M and L are included in the scope of delivery.

Even those who appreciate the past need a watch that keeps time in the present to the second. Inside the titanium case, this task is performed by the COSC-certified Porsche Design caliber WERK 01.240 with flyback function – a certification that is only awarded to watches with extreme precision. One finely tuned cog meshes with the other, just like in the strictly limited model with manual 6-speed GT sports gearbox and high-revving naturally aspirated engine. Still, the highest demands are the ones we place on ourselves. This means that without exception, each and every chronograph is checked once again by the factory for compliance with the COSC precision values before delivery. Quality standards that are a matter of course for Porsche.
