Didnt know where else to post this. But its my first time seeing this watch and i'd like to get my hands on one....and of you guys have this timepiece????





These are from the 90's and really rare. As a huge 968 Fan as well as a huge Watch fan, this is a must have for me if i can find one. Less then 2000 of these were made/sold and they are numbered. Perhaps Bob or Jeff have one?
Very cool looking.........but what time is it?
:lol:it's 20MPH Duh!



Hey the odo reads 968. I want one I want one.
very cool ! I will have to talk to a few of my watch collector friends. i wonder what they are worth ?
There was one for sale on ebay uk in June this year, not sure what it sold for though.

If you keep your eyes open, one will surface eventually.
I think that has to be the coolest watch I have ever seen. You should not have told us about it Fox because now if one comes up in ebay your going to have competition <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
I'll be looking for one!
I've already started looking, too bad I need 2 of them as my son wants one too. I like the tripmeter, it seems to be the number of each of the 2000 watches. I see they made a lowly 944 watch as well <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/rolleyes.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />
I thought the trip meter read 240 because the 968 was rated at 240Din HP.
I thought that at first but the US version is rated at 236 HP. It is also rated at 240 PS which is a deprecated measurement from the Fatherland. Anyway, would be cool if it was the S/N but I guess it's PS.
So whats the price and code about the 240 on the trip odo?
Anyone have a clue on what the make or model number is on this?
That is cool and I don't have one. My rarest pieces are the 968 coffee cup and the Italy launch shirt.
I don't know what make or model this particular watch is, but the Porsche Design watches were originally made by IWC and I think about a decade ago they switched to Eterna as the OEM.
They made this watch for every numerical Porsche model. I have seen the 944 version.
If we can find the same type of watch perhaps we can get the makers name. This one has a similar style to it.

Would it make sense to contact Motochron?
Someone over at RL contacted Motochron about a year ago about reproducing some of these watches. They quoted a min. 100pc order for something like $350 ea.

The price isnt bad, but good luck getting 100 people on board.
I will jump on board if someone runs with this!
If they will agree to make the 968 watches I'm in for $350...
