It’s not the first time that one of the largest clubs of Porsche enthusiasts gets its own limited edition timekeeper. For example, back in 2010, the club has ordered a beautiful TAG Heuer Monaco PCA Limited Edition automatic chronograph that featured a nice racing-inspired color scheme and was powered by Caliber 12: a modified ETA 2892-A2 caliber with Dubois Depraz 2008 chronograph add-on module.
This timekeeper is based on the current Chopard Mille Miglia Chronograph. While not as classic-looking as the model from TAG Heuer, the watch still makes a great impression with its electric blue dial and pleasant color scheme.
This new timepiece is still powered by a mechanism that was designed and built by ETA. This COSC-certified chronometer-grade ETA 2984-2 automatic caliber, while extremely boring both in terms of design and decoration, still does a fairly good job at keeping time. It is also quite reliable thanks for its extremely simple layout, and, as I never fail to reiterate, is easy (and also affordable) to fix if something goes wrong. For the owner of a German car, this must be the main factor to consider when buying a new timekeeper.
The watch is shipped in the same 42 mm body, which is just a tad over 12 millimeters thick and offers a comfortable pair of horns. Besides the color scheme, the only thing that differentiates this limited edition version from the original is the white-red-blue PCA logo on its sapphire crystal that, while looking cool and all, also abstracts view at the self-winging mechanism.
While the placement of the logo somehow defeats the whole purpose of having a sapphire crystal on a case-back cover, the choice of understandable: ordering an exclusive solid case-back cover would probably send the selling price of the timekeeper through the roof.
On the other hand, if you are looking for such a timekeeper, you are probably a member of the club and a proud owner of a Porsche. And owning a Porsche is, you know, a privilege.
