Default I want the Motochron watch that resembles the 993 VDO clock.

I want the Motochron watch that resembles the VDO clock. Others have tried to copy this one albeit poorly. I saw a new version (not a Motochron) advertised recently in Sports Car Market Magazine that was poorly executed.

Ok guys the skinny is:

If we can get 100 firm orders then the manufacturer will produce a batch for us at 250 Euro's a piece. I will also post on the 964 board and see what happens.
So the group buy starts with me

Who else is in?

What manufacturer? Motochron? If you mean the C2/C4 model (the one that looks like our clocks), and you mean Motochron, I am SO in.

Yes and it looks like the watch on the first picture, like our tach.

Thanks, Danny. I've been looking for one like that in post #21 for a while. I thought it was listed on the Motochron site as "C2/C4". Now I see that it is listed as "964". The "C2-C4" watch on the Motochron site now looks like that in post #1, like our speedo (not tach). I'm on the fence now...

I like it no matter, I'm in! The clock look would be cool (a Pcar badge or specific to individual models would be cool too [C4S in P script in my case])

Default Here's the latest attempt at the VDO clock watch

Here's the latest version of a watch inspired by the Porsche VDO clock. I think they missed the mark cluttering up the face with the date, etc. Too busy. Too bad.
