1980s SC-Turbo Design Chronograph 'Original PVD'
Fresh from the personal collection of style icon, automobile enthusiast, and Urban Outlaw himself, Magnus Walker, comes a 1980s SC-Turbo Chronograph in fantastic condition.
While at first glance, one might think—and justifiably so—that this is a Porsche Design Chronograph 1 (or one of the similar Orfina and Lejour versions), it's instead an homage marked "SC-Turbo Design". What is in line with the originals, however, is the fantastic Valjoux 7750 movement inside of it. And with the fact that Porsche's 911 SC and 911 Turbo models are two of their most prized models of years past, the naming convention for this unique piece makes it all that more fun for an enthusiast or owner.

CASE & BRACELET
The seemingly unpolished case features its original factory PVD finishing and displays minimal wear from age with crisp and fine edges throughout. The case retains its original PVD finished pump pushers and unsigned crown, the latter of which shows some wearing down of the coating from use. The case back is in great condition, showing light signs of wear. The watch comes supplied on a later factory PVD Porsche Design bracelet.
DIAL & HANDS
The matte black dial is in exceptional condition showing no notable elements of age. The tritium lume plots have aged to a sandy-beige color and show no degradation under UV light inspection. The original tritium hands have aged to match the dial well, and show no degradation when inspected under UV light. The neon orange seconds hand adds a pop of color to the otherwise black-on-black-on-black configuration.
ACCESSORIES
None. The watch is keeping time, but the service history is unknown. A movement service can be provided upon request.
