Default Watch Out!

Okay, Since deciding to let go of the GTS, have a limited edition 928 watch that kinda goes with it.
The GTS is a 94 and the watch is serial number 94.



Never worn, Also have serial number 34 worn dally. Have worn out two of the leather bands. Luckily Chris made more bands.

Anway, Let the watch go with the GTS, or sell it outright?

Think it is a cool watch (very biased opinion), but will it really add any value to or help sell the car?

Let it go with the car, but sell the car for $900 more
Honestly, I'd sell it separately from the car but give the new buyer first dibs.

Why didn't I think of that...
Will do that will my extra bits too.
It's got Devek headers, custom x-pipe, RMB. Have the manifolds, cat h-pipe (50K miles), and muffler (good shape).
Also have the smog pump and plumbing.
Have the PEMs and Sharktuner (could give them the option on the Sharktuner too).

Do they leak oil for that genuine effect?

Let it go with the car. Kinda special in it's own right.

I wouldn't give it with the car unless the new owner truly is an enthusiast.....I'm guessing that the last thing you'd want to see is your 928 being flipped for more cash and the watch being sold separate from it...
Either way, good luck with the sale, and if you do sell the watch separately, send me a note ....

I may be interested - does it have a metal band? or does Chris have more bands? (metal option is best for me - if they are avail. I can deal with Chris on bands)

Of course I'm interested in #94 for the same reason you were. What would you want for it - PM me?

I think in selling the car it will appeal well to a few - and to many others not at all - so maybe not an obvious win. Sell the car on its merits - it looks great anyway!

I can't believe you are selling out - another new Porsche? I've been very tempted by a Panamera Sport Tourismo (but I'd still keep the GTS! - for ever...)

Has both bands.
Red stitched leather bands are around $50 from Chris.

Not physically able to heel/toe makes driving a 5spd very depressing, no pun intended.
Especially the 928, it just begs for downshift rev matching. Both for smoothness and the resulting sound effects.
Still enjoy the noise though. Can't keep myself form rolling the window down, pushing in the clutch, and revving every time I go under an overpass.
