Default The GT2 RS Porsche Watch

Must supply a GT2 vin to purchase...I was thinking of a Rolex Blue faced Submariner which can be had for a similar price but the GT2 watch looks pretty sweet and the exclusivity is yummy.

Here is my only current watch...1996 Omega Seamaster 300 Pro, with the gold bezel...I really do love it:

A sports model Rolex is pretty exclusive today (if purchased at MSRP).

I really do like the design very much though, if I did not I would not even consider it. Having said that, it is hard to argue with the timeless value of a Rolex Submariner. p.s. not really worried about the money, I more then paid for it it today in the market uptick.

One of my Favs is the Deep Blue I got about 6 years ago in AMS. It’s almost doubled in price since I got it.

Yep that was a great buy...I considered the Hulk a while back but the market was priced crazy, plus I think that is one reason I am considering the GT2 RS watch, just because it looks cool and is not a rolex (I own a blue faced gold/titanium SeaMaster 300 Pro that I really do love).

There are few companies on this earth that have mastered fleecing their customers for every last dime they can get out of them better than Porsche.

I got the watch as part of the deal on my RS. The original buyer didn’t take it out of the box or remove the stickers, actually they didn’t drive the car either..... if you’re really interested Id part with it for much less then the price listed.

I have a couple rolex as well, and other Porsche watches actually..... The coolest feature on these is how easy you can change straps, but aside from that the rolex is superior in my opinion.

Don't see how the Porsche watch has any chance of holding value

It looks nice. But for Rolex money, the Rolex is better.

AP or Rolex, don't buy some ETA based nonsense because it says Porsche on it.
