The conceptual Porsche Design Watch has been designed by Simon Grytten as a timepiece that commemorates the namesake brand's achievements on the raceway. The timepiece has an unexpected design that is unlike anything seen before and draws inspiration from the Porsche 917 that won at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in both 1970 and 1971. This includes an elevated dial that calls to mind the contours of the car and a series of color accents that further reinforce the connection.
The conceptual Porsche Design Watch maintains a perplexing aesthetic that would no doubt act as an eye-catching accessory were it to ever be created. The watch is imagined in a number of finish and strap color combinations.
