    I’ve owned this Porsche Design - early Orfina chronograph model 7176 since 1978. In 2008 I sent it to Superior Watch Company, New York for a certified refurbishment. I haven’t worn it since. I sourced an extra crystal (value $150.) for future use someday, the one on there is perfect as is the whole piece. A solid 10 of 10. They’ve only gone up slowly…steadily in value - but are still WAY UNDERVALUED in the world of watches.

    $3,299. + shipping and insurance

    It’s advertised with the Porsche folks just now too. Hoping someone here snags it, thanks.

    I dug up this photo this morning from 33 years ago, no comments on the hair. It was the late 80’s ffs. I was 29, now 62. This same watch on my same skinny wrist, it was a big part of my YOUNG ‘car guy’ image. I’ve always cherished this watch…but ready to let it go.


    some more detailed photos - trying to show condition better. This watch has the light patina of a life well lived, no marks, scratches, scuffs.

    I bought Mike’s watch and it arrived today. It was better than described. Absolutely 10/10. It will be in good company! Thank you Mike and Ferrarichat!
