I agree it's pricey. Nice though. Think it looks good.

I'm a big Porsche guy, so I tried to order one. FWIW, they are LONG sold out with a waitlist. I just dig the look and it's not something that I'd normally get, but dunno, this one just feels cool to me.

I think it’s awesome. It’s only $911 more than a xSOTM model (which are the most comparable ceramic models) and is truly limited.

Too much money for what it is
Would you pay the money if it wasn't 'limited' ............ |

It's a fundraiser for PCA and a great way to support the organization if you are a Porcshe aficionado.
Seems like they underestimated the interest and could probably sell another hundred without a problem. ![]()

The Omega design team could have done a better job.Put me in charge and I'll show you how it's done !
1/ Use recycle parts of a Porsche car and incorporate them into every limited Racing dial watches. Very Cool ! 2/ That Porsche badge should have been applied onto the subdial register at the 9 o'clock position 3/ The dial should have mimic the radiator grill of a Porsche in 3D just like what Omega did with the dial of the SMP PO Skyfall watch 4/Personally I would have opted for the retro tonneau shape casing of the Speedmaster Mark II instead of the Racing dial 5/ Last picture : Yeah ! That's how exhibition caseback display should look like with that cute yellow ceramic brake ! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

PORSCHE Omega Limited edition.
I own one of this PCA watch and I must admit.
It's a great watch. I might sell mine to make room for a new arrival. If anyone is interested DM |

Looking back now, anyone have additional thoughts on this watch? Happy they bought it? Does it get wrist time? Regret it? Already got rid of it?

I have this watch and the only problem was lack of deployant strap. I fixed that with a customer strap from jean rousseau and a GSOM deployant. With that change, I wear it alot more. Still luv the yellow accents.
