Porsche Design Chronograph 1
As the critically acclaimed 50th anniversary of the launch of a series of special models of the Porsche Design Chronograph 1 draws to a close, the replica luxury watches manufacturer has unveiled its next highlight. With the Chronograph 1 – GP 2023 Edition, Porsche Design launches a second limited special edition to commemorate the GP ice race in Zell am See, Austria. The event will be held for the fourth time in a newly designed format at the end of January 2023.
Since 2019, Porsche Design has been the official timing partner of the event, which resumed that same year after a 45-year hiatus. Ferdi Porsche, nephew of Professor Ferdinand Alexander Porsche and watch enthusiast, has made a major contribution to the success of the new GP Ice Race Edition and is also the driving force behind the new Chronograph 1 – GP 2023 Edition. played an important role in the design.
After all, it was his uncle who laid the foundations of the Porsche Design brand in 1972 with the original Chronograph 1. An architect by training, Ferdi Porsche had the necessary flair for form and aesthetics and was involved in the development of chronographs at Porsche's own fake luxury watches manufacturing plant in Solothurn, Switzerland. .
Amazing sports cars, extreme conditions: GP Ice Racing
The Skijöring Race, held in Zell am See in 1952, has its origins in the popular skiing sport, which originally involved horses pulling skiers along ice tracks. Evolving from horses to sports cars pulling skiers down the slopes, the game has now become a full-fledged motorsport. At its peak, 10,000 fans made the pilgrimage to Zell am See, where sports cars competed for the fastest lap times in various disciplines. The last historic race took place in 1974, and just 45 years later in 2019, Ferdi Porsche and his friend Vinzenz Greger revived the ancient tradition of ice racing with the modern GP Ice Race.
Anyone who follows Ferdi Porsche on social media will see his passion for motorsport. Fred Porsche embodies a lifestyle that polarizes GP ice racing enthusiasts, which are dominated by young racing fans. He once said that for him there were few better feelings than driving up the Grossglockner mountain with his father and their sports car early in the morning. For three days at the end of January 2023, a spectacular series of racing cars will once again compete against each other in extreme conditions: prototypes, rally cars and restored classics.

New look: Chronograph 1 – GP 2022 edition
The design team at Ferdi Porsche and Studio FA Porsche crafted an original chronograph from 1972, inspired by the aesthetics of the Porsche 911 dashboard. The bold, light-colored hour markers on the matte black dial feature Super-LumiNova, providing 24/7 readability.
In previous models, as well as the original from 1972, the surrounding dial ring integrated a tachymeter scale, but the new model replaces this with a 60-minute display.
Additionally, in the new version, the minute hand is pointed (instead of rectangular) and the stop hand is red instead of white. In addition, there is a small but noticeable innovation on the case: the 40.8 mm titanium case is no longer black PVD coated, but silver. In this regard, the Chronograph 1 – GP 2022 Edition is undoubtedly closer to the original. Jacob & Co. Epic X Baguette replica
Porsche Design Chrongraph 1 – Movement of the GP 2023 Edition
Porsche Design developed the precise WERK 01.240 movement at its manufacturing facility in Solothurn, while the company also used a specialist Concepto as its base. The WERK 01.240 movement in this new model is a further development of the 2022 version of the WERK 01.140, featuring a flyback function, an innovative quick-switch date display and a bilingual day of the week display. The movement is COSC certified and has a power reserve of 48 hours. Finally, the case back is engraved with the historic Porsche Design logo, the edition number and the small but playful GP badge: a snowman sitting on a tractor.
The new GP 2023 version will offer two strap options: a white fabric strap that can be worn with ski or racing suits, or an automotive leather strap with a matte black titanium folding clasp. Additionally, the watch comes in a black box with a laser-engraved acrylic nameplate.
