Porsche Design
Marcus,
I'm delighted to see a serious review of a Porsche Design chronograph in these august pages. I was busily collecting Porsche Design chronos from the Orfina, IWC, and Eterna years when I first discovered the PuristS and got hooked on AP. PD may not receive much attention from the haute horology crowd, but for simple visual appeal to anyone with industrial, modern, or Bauhaus tastes, they're hard to beat. The MIH watch, Sinn, Tutima, and Xemex share some of the same aesthetic, but PD did it first.

Changes after the Crash Test Dummy Sings

Well, the first change might be an advisory regarding . . .

Wondeful review Marcus!
Finally had a chance to finally sit down and read your review. A thorough review and felt as if I was there in the room with you examining the watch! I wonder what Porsche Design thinks of your pictures with the salt water and sand LOL! I love it! Cheers,...
