A Legend Revived by Porsche Design and Curated by Hodinkee. The iconic Chronograph I – a true timeless masterpiece. Designed by Prof. F. A. Porsche to reflect the essence of Porsche vehicles, this timepiece revolutionized the watch industry with its focus on function and readability, much like the Porsche 911.

In collaboration with HODINKEE, Inc., Porsche Design has launched the Chronograph 1 – Hodinkee 2024 Edition. This limited edition, handcrafted in Solothurn, Switzerland, seamlessly blends 1970s style with modern technology, adhering to Prof. F. A. Porsche's original specifications.
