Can't Afford An Actual Porsche for Dad? How About One Of These New Items By Porsche Design?

New Watches by Porsche Design:

P´6750 Worldtimer
The mechanical worldtimer displays the time in two different time zones simultaneously. The three hands in the center of the watch show the time zone in which the wearer is currently situated. Two dial openings indicate a reference location of the 24 world time zones and its local time. This second time is displayed synchronously to the watch’s primary time. The reference locations are displayed in the dial opening with a three-letter code. It is particularly simple and convenient to change between the two time zones: By pressing a button, the time at the destination is transmitted immediately to the hour hand - without losing a second.

Rose gold case with two crowns and integrated button. Natural caoutchouc strap with folding clasp in rose gold:

Case:
The Worldtimer is available in three models: with a matt-finished or black PVD-coated titanium case or with a matt-finished 18-carat rose gold case [4N]. Titanium is extremely durable and surprisingly light. Because titanium is skin-friendly and non-allergenic, it is very comfortable to wear. Convex, anti-reflective and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal; six-screw titanium or rose gold case back affixed with 6 screws with engraving.
Strap: Black, natural caoutchouc strap with folding clasp in titanium or rose gold
Diameter: 45 mm, Height: 16.8 mm, Waterproof up to 100 m

The P´6910 INDICATOR.

The first chronograph to mechanically enable a digital display of the stopping time in hours and minutes. The INDICATOR is heralding a revolution in timing – it is the only automatic chronograph in the world which is equipped with a mechanical-digital stopwatch display. Total stopwatch time: 9 hours, 59 minutes. The dial and hands are perfectly readable: They are also visible in the dark due to the clear layout and the different luminous coatings on the hands and markings. The case is made of rose gold and PVD-coated titanium. The sapphire glass is scratch-resistant, anti-reflective and embossed. Power reserve display.

Also, coming this fall, the very first Men's Fragrance by Porsche: Essence

from the press release:

Porsche Design launches its first men's fragrance range consisting of eight products. The range will go on sale from fall 2008 in Porsche Design Stores and via Clarins Group distribution channels. The new men's fragrance range allows Porsche Design to expand its range of classic gentlemen’s accessories which already includes items such as watches, sunglasses, luggage, sports and fashion collections, as well as electronic goods. The core product is an eau de toilette which will be available in three different versions. An aftershave lotion, aftershave balm, a hair and body shampoo and two deodorants in stick and spray form complete the range.



The new fragrance, with its striking cold metallic accords and warm woody tones, is characterized by three strong contrasting elements. The first contact is identified by an intensive top note of penetrating freshness and coolness, borne by a molecule called “arctical” which was developed specially for the new men’s fragrance. The sharpness which they engender is then subdued by the sensation of aromatic myrtle and juniper notes which follow on behind it. Spicy black pepper with a hint of Russian coriander leaves and Siberian pine provide a further contrast to the cold metallic accords. Warm, woody patchouli and balsam fir notes provide the third companion to the icy prelude. These are underlined by a delicate nuance of frankincense.



The fragrance bottle designed by Porsche Design Studio is a glacier-blue, frosted glass prism with captivating purist architecture. The glass prism is contained within a protecting brushed, black, anodized aluminum frame. The light character of the fragrance is emphasized by the color blue, a symbol of freshness and naturalness. The black aluminum used for the frame provides an exciting contrast. Porsche Design thus remains true to its distinctive design vocabulary and once again puts its faith in the use of challenging materials.
