PORSCHE DESIGN – 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather


PORSCHE DESIGN1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather Titanium 42

Focusing on Maximum Functionality

Porsche Design expands its series of 1919 Collection timepieces with the introduction of the 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather. Paying meticulous attention to detail, intelligent design meets maximum functionality, putting the Porsche philosophy directly on the wrist. Tested and certified by the official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC), the innovative 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather – in addition to its technical features – stands out and competes through use of its sophisticated silhouette and subtle design cues.

A Style-Defining Classic

Like the legendary sports car, the timepiece provokes with its minimalist design, un-compromising functionality, and outstanding performance. The Porsche 911 has been the benchmark for sports cars since 1963 – synonymous with racing, victory, emotion, and innovation. It was also the inspiration for the company founded by Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche. In 1972, Porsche Design introduced the Chronograph I, a classic that shaped the entire world of watches: the first matte black chronograph, mirroring the 911’s speedometer and tachometer.

The new 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather is a continuation of this uncompromising de-sign with a clear focus on functionality: an all-black understated interpretation of the classic designed by F. A. Porsche. The sleek design of the generously proportioned dial focuses on the essentials, while the dark contrast guarantees excellent legibility.

Lightweight Engineering for the Wrist

The legendary sports car and the exclusive timepiece also share the same genesis in featherweight construction: this is optimized engineering for the wrist. Every 1919 Collection model – including the 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather – is made entirely of titanium.

The chronograph’s strap is made of high-quality cowhide leather, just like the seats of a Porsche, utilizing the same attention to detail as in the sports cars.

Maximum Performance

The innovative watch, powered by the Porsche Design Werk 01.200 caliber, – equipped with a state-of-the-art flyback complication – can quickly measure successive intervals, such as lap times on the racetrack. The 4-hertz automatic movement is the result of cutting-edge production methods combining in-house engineering and watchmaking expertise with vehicle manufacturing proficiency.

The movement’s exposed automatic bridge provides an unobstructed view of the flyback mechanism and the automatic gears, thereby systematically implementing Porsche’s approach to lightweight engineering. The energy-optimized Porsche Design rotor, visible through the sapphire crystal back, is PVD-coated and carries a tungsten weight. Thanks to its heft, the material helps provide the energy necessary for maximum winding power.

The 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Black & Leather will be available as of September 2019 for 5,950 Euros (RRP) at Porsche Design stores, specialty retailers, and online at www.porsche-design.com.

PORSCHE DESIGN – 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Brown & Leather

New Flyback Chronograph Expands 1919 Collection

Stuttgart/Basel. Porsche Design expands its 1919 Collection timepiece series with an innovative flyback chronograph. The new watch, powered by the Porsche Design calibre Werk 01.200 manufacture movement – equipped with a technically sophisticated flyback function – possesses superb rate accuracy in all positions, granted through a chronometer certificate by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC).

In addition to its technical features, the 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Brown & Leather visually delivers with its well-appointed, harmonious design, which is well-thought-out down to the smallest detail, and chic color scheme. The timepiece, inspired by the purist design and functional aesthetics of the Porsche 911, thoughtfully complements the distinct watch collection. The collection, which raises the bar for sporty, yet elegant timepieces, is currently available in four versions.

Functionality at Its Best

Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, founder of Porsche Design, expressed his ideas of consistent design through an innovative, understated design language characterized ideas, which still holds true. To this day, concepts are straightforward, purist, and uncompromisingly functional. This philosophy is particularly evident in the 1919 Collection. In order to intuitively display the time from every angle, the radius of the dial is as large as possible.

With this task in mind, designers of the Studio F. A. Porsche created a notably slim titanium case with bold minute indices positioned on the outer edges of the dial, foregoing a tachymeter bezel. The well-balanced design gives a unique visual-lightness to the watch, which is further enhanced by the elegantly proportioned strap.

Here too, the creative process was a result of functional requirements: lugs are entirely integrated into the strap in order to achieve significantly more ergonomic stability, and through uniform force distribution. The deep brown hue lends the 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Brown & Leather a decidedly contemporary touch, without compromising its timeless characteristics.

Maximum Performance

The 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Brown & Leather is powered by Werk 01.200, introduced by Porsche Design in June 2017. It offers a flyback chronograph, which allows the measurement of successive intervals – perfect for measuring lap times on the race track. The automatic movement, beating at 4 Hz, is the result of state-of-the-art production methods, which combine the company’s concentrated engineering and horological expertise with the mastery derived from decades of automotive manufacturing.

The open-worked automatic barrel bridge reveals both the gear train and the flyback function, while also implementing Porsche’s lightweight construction philosophy. As is standard for Porsche Design, the calibre is entirely black. The energy-optimized rotor, seen through the sapphire crystal case back, is PVD-coated and equipped with a weight crafted from tungsten. The material tungsten, which is difficult to process because of its delicate composition, nonetheless, provides the necessary weight required to guarantee a powerful wind.

A masterpiece, in terms of precision, functionality, and performance, the 1919 Chronotimer Flyback Brown & Leather is available as of September 2018 and retails for $6,350 (RRP) at Porsche Design Stores, specialty retailers, and online at www.porsche-design.com.

PORSCHE DESIGNChronograph 911 Turbo S Exclusive Edition

Individuality as a Lifestyle – Perfectly Timed

The Porsche Design Chronograph 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series combines the classic attributes of Porsche Design timepieces with the characteristics of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series, extending the unique identity of the vehicle to its driver's wrist. Both the sports car and the chronograph will be manufactured as limited editions of 500 each, according to the individual order, and delivered simultaneously.

Porsche Design Chronograph 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series – A Bold Statement on the Road and the Wrist

Inspired by the sporty performance of Porsche’s new masterpiece, Porsche Design has developed its first mechanical in-house movement for the Chronograph 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series. The development of the calibre Werk 01.200 took three years.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

It features a complex flyback mechanism, allowing the elapsed seconds hand to be stopped, returned to zero, and restarted instantly with a single push of a but-ton, such as when clocking lap times during a race. The 4Hz-automatic movement results from state-of-the-art production methods. It combines the brand’s distinct concentrated competence in engineering and watchmaking with the expertise in vehicle construction.

The cut out of the movement’s barrel bridge not only exhibits the flyback function and the gear trains but, also, implements Porsche’s lightweight design in a consequent fashion. As is representative of Porsche Design, the move-ment is black. Its energy-optimized rotor, visible through the sapphire case back, features a design inspired by an alloy wheel and is partially crafted from tungsten. This innovative material is extremely difficult to process but provides the necessary weight to guarantee a highly powerful wind, despite the delicate design.

The rotor, attached by a Porsche central locking with Porsche coat of arms, is similar to the wheel rims with accents of gold or done completely in black. In addition to being Porsche Design’s first in-house movement, Werk 01.200 also bears a certificate of the Swiss C.O.S.C. institution, verifying the accuracy of its performance.

Emblematic Features

The lightweight titanium case is finished with a characteristic black carbide coating. Its sportive carbon dial skilfully incorporates the recognizable carbon fiber strips of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series and is finished with the original lacquer car paint. At 9 o'clock, a small dial with the lettering "911 Turbo S Exclusive Series" indicates the movement. The strap is fabricated from the same high-quality leather and yarn used in the seats of the car, as is the iconic perforation.

Record Time – 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series

0 to 200 km/h in 9.6 seconds. Engine power of 446 kW (607 HP). Maximum speed at 330 km/h.

The bi-turbo 6-cylinder Boxer engine with 3.8 litres displacement of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series has 19 kW (27 HP) more power output than = the standard 911 Turbo S. The increased power is due to the Exclusive Powerkit, of-fered exclusively in the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series.

Individual Lifestyle

Just like the models of the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series, the timepieces are de-signed according to the individual wishes of their future owners. The goal: trans-form a special piece into an extraordinary one, like the 911 Turbo S Exclusive Series.

The carbon dial is offered in six brilliant hues: Golden Yellow Metallic, Carrara White Metallic, Agate Grey Metallic, Black, Guards Red, and Graphite Blue Metallic. Matching seams are available in the same colors. The timepiece is delivered with a titanium bracelet and two leather straps featuring titanium deployment buckles.

Forty years ago, Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche founded the Porsche Design studio and his own luxury brand Porsche De-sign. And for the past four decades, the studio has produced numerous classics of superlative design.





In fact, Porsche Design developed an entirely new category of luxury products: engineered luxury. The first product was the black Chronograph I, which immediately revolutionised the watch industry. The exclusive spectacles that followed became the world’s most successful sunglasses ever.
