tomtom1988 63 Posted January 24, 2017 I've a fair wishlist for 2017, been looking at some PD gens and really like them, yes I know the consensus is if you like it, buy it and believe me I probably will, just looking for some input on what you guys think of PD as a brand?

Kleen™ 45 Posted January 24, 2017 I like the kitchen knives they once designed for Chroma. Their watches, not so much... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomtom1988 63 Posted January 24, 2017 Some are horrendous I give you that! I'm looking at the p6000 flat six as an *affordable gen* option Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kleen™ 45 Posted January 24, 2017 I would love to own the 'Flat 6' as well...but it would be shaped like a car and air-cooled... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paparolf 45 Posted January 24, 2017 Quite like the world timer, but not a Porsche fan so I'm out. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rusty peters 0 Posted January 24, 2017 I believe Eterna builds many of them. Unfortunately some look like 70's watches and the others look like Invictas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomtom1988 63 Posted January 24, 2017 I just think they are pretty decent! TKOs thread got me into them, missed out on one on the bay at the weekend, can't justify spending 600 on one when the Nomos I want is 780, my search continues! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andylaw1919 386 Posted January 25, 2017 I like some of their designs but some are just strange... Like the $65 stainless eraser sleeve/holder that was available a couple years ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dilip 0 Posted January 25, 2017 There's a store a couple of blocks down here that sells Porsche Design tobacco pipes, think that pretty much sums up the brand for my taste. Overdesigned and unnecessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TKO 0 Posted January 25, 2017 I love my flat six. It has impeccable specs and oozes quality. It is beautifully designed; especially the carbon fibre dial that seems to change its pattern as the light reflects off it from different angles - I have not seen this on any other watch dial. An understated classy timepiece - now if I could only afford to buy one of their cars to go with my watch... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
porschespeedster 19 Posted January 26, 2017 the earlier-generation Porsche Design watches were incredible. (they were basically Sinn watches btw.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatarms 7,777 Posted January 26, 2017 Not a fan at all. In fact, not a fan of any of the watches with car brand names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myaz 3 Posted January 26, 2017 ^ ditto. They feel like an after thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingSpur 0 Posted January 26, 2017 I would be more inclined to own one if I owned a Porche... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFleischer 4,355 Posted January 26, 2017 If you can get a good discount why not, flat 6 is a nice watch- good rep also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomtom1988 63 Posted January 26, 2017 If you can get a good discount why not, flat 6 is a nice watch- good rep also. That's exactly what I'm trying to find, a good discount on a flat 6, willing to pay about 500, some good deals on jomashop but I know the customs man will catch up with me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
