It's a Techart steering wheel. I bought it through a local reseller. Took about 8 weeks and ran about $3,500. It's a lot of $, but then again - what isn't with a 991.
You have to buy a new core steering wheel (they source, which is OEM) - when you return your original core, you get money back (or you can opt to keep both - but then runs way too much $). The drawback with their model is you give up your original wheel - which could be an issue for some. I figure you build the car for yourself - not the next owner.
Noticeably thicker, more pronounced flat bottom, overall well made, love the Alcantara and the paddles are an improvement over those thumb shifters on the MF wheel.

I wish more would order the HRE P107's for their 911's over some of the more common models (P101). It looks absolutely spectacular and nice touch with the billet center cap! Reminded me of this Turbo we did a few years back:
