Laco is a reputable watch maker. That said, it would be impossible to create a similar watch for the 911 or 993, considering a dial only contains one "1" and one "9"....

993's are timeless. No need for a watch.

The 928 watch face could be done up for 993 owners with the 9 and 3 in their normal positions with another 9 in the six o clock position as graphically, the 6 is nothing but an upside-down 9.
