I like the watch. It’s a bit different than the other larger RS watch they sell and I also like
how it matches the Sport Chrono; which I almost Deleted, but kept because of the watch face.

Some markets the watch came with the car as a package deal.

My nicest watch is a vacheron-constantin, I’ve worn it maybe 6 times total. My go to every day watch is a Speedmaster. I personally
don’t do the watch thing, but I do understand it.

I'm curious if anyone has a sense of what is holding S/T deliveries up. Mine was seemingly complete (elevator pic) on July 4 but still shows 'in production' with an estimated completion date of 9/14 and a December delivery. Any clue?

Led to believe it's a heritage piece on the interior. I'm in the same boat above, received completion pics end of June.

Porsche Canada requires S/T owners to buy the watch, full stop.

It’s a very wearable lightweight timepiece with a great strap in the same leather as your selected interior. But disappointed with the build quality and box presentation which feels really cheap for something at this price point. Didn’t help that one of the chronograph hands fell off and is floating around the dial…

Chrono 1 is a good choice. Hondinkee did faux-tina version that recently sold out. Looks nice, though I'm not really a faux-tina kind of guy.

Same as repairing a PDK....replace it with a new one and send the old unit back to Germany.
