They like to pay top dollar for a product that offers fewer features, and one that has lots of marketing support. They obviously wear Porsche Design watches!

I am a watch guy and have yet to see a Porsche design watch that I thought was worth anywhere close to the asking price! I think a 15k for $1200 would be about perfect! Nice find.

I have the 50th Anniversary 911 Porsche Design watch. Love it. Very low key. I think it was about $1K. Paid full price. Lucky to have found one after the fact.

Inventory changes a lot and although i don't particularly car for this one....

https://www.jomashop.com/porsche-des...054140135.html

Mine is PVD and has an ETA movement. Retail SHOULD be about 3K and not 15K.... (for mine).

The older Porsche watches are worth some money however; they were also made by IWC.

I actually don’t mind Porsche Design watches, I just think that they are generally over priced. I’d love to have one of the older IWC versions.

13K is a lot for an ETA movement... 1500 - 4000 is going rate for equivalent quality once you extract the name
