The close relationship to the great cars that inspired them. Lightweight construction is of major importance, as it is in motorsport. Because the casing is traditionally the heaviest part of a watch, in the new models this is made from aluminium.

In some cases, we’ve even used carbon, for example in the dial of the 918 Spyder Sport Classic chronograph and the 911 GT3 R Sport Classic chronograph.

WAP 070 083 0D 8 – 9 In the beginning was the sports car. The new Sport Classic chronographs were designed to be sporty. But what does that mean, exactly? Both in motorsport and with watches this means one thing first and foremost: lightness. Every gramme that is shaved off the weight affects the performance. In motorsport this is measured in hundredths of a second. This principle is reflected in the new chronographs thanks to a light aluminium casing. The new smaller format of 42 mm diameter also gives our chronographs a more sporty look than ever. The mix of materials – aluminium, stainless steel and rubber – makes them robust yet lightweight and pleasant to wear. The 918 Spyder Sport Classic chronograph. The colour design of the 918 Spyder Sport Classic is based on the corporate design of the super sports car: Black elements contrasted with glowing Acid Green. The integrated carbon on the dial symbolises the extreme lightness and high performance of the Spyder. And that’s not all they have in common. Like the 918 Spyder, of which only 918 cars will be manufactured, this model is also limited – to exactly 918 pieces. 918 Spyder Sport Classic chronograph – limited edition. Limited to 918 pieces.

A key element in the design of the new 911 Sport Classic chronograph is the current external colours of the Porsche 911 Carrera. While the Sport Classic 911 is entirely in classic Silver, the Sport Classic 911 Turbo model opts for understatement in its colour scheme: Macadamia Metallic coupled with a Black base. The dials of both original 911 models feature a pyramid structure reminiscent of the old days of motorsport. The pyramid structure is a jagged profile that is achieved by a process known as ‘knurling’. In automotive engineering this facilitates higher torque in shaft-hub connections. This pattern is also found around the edges of calibration screws, ensuring better grip and greater precision. design. 911 Turbo Sport Classic chronograph. WAP 070 083 0D 12 – 13 Hat.
