The standard Porsche Design timepiece can be customized and bought by any Porsche owner. All fourteen available colour options on the configurator are inspired by the interior and exterior of the Porsche 911. The rotors of the watches have been derived from the wheel designs of the 911 while the use of the high-tech material titanium is a tribute to the lightweight construction of the legendary sports car.
