  • In the 1970s the designers of Porsche produced a classic chronograph aimed at the world of motor sport. Subsequently NATO expressed an interest in their timepiece to be issued to officers and select personnel. At the time the Royal Navy were also considering the purchase of Porsche chronographs, and a small batch were obtained for evaluation: these were marked ROYAL NAVY on the dial. A red circular symbol containing the letters 3H was also printed on the dial. It stood for Hygrogen 3, identifying the use of the element Tritium. The watch exceeded the Royal Navy requirements and also proved to be too expensive. Orders for the PD-Chronograph were however placed by the Swiss Army, the United Arab Emirates Air Force and the 23rd Tactical Fighter Wing - the Flying Tigers. (extract taken from Z.M. Wesolowsk's book - A Concise Guide to Military Timepieces 1880-1990).
  • The watch for sale was not issued to the Royal Air Force

What our Customers are saying

Popped in to ur offices to buy IWC Porsche design watch , thanks for all your help and even polishing the scratches off my Bell& Ross bracelet......been looking for a Titan for a long time , Thanks again

Vic Cohen

I started off this year with one lovely Tag Heuer watch from Swiss Watch Co. I have since made another 2 purchases, another Tag and a Porsche Design. With such great service, I have no doubt I'll be back again. Might have to wait until I get a pay rise though! In any case, thanks for the fantastic service and watches. Cheers,

Emil Ahmad
