even more expensive than a GT2RS

What's it's best lap time at the Ring? I've got two Porsche design watches I could barely give away. On the other side of the coin, I've got a black face stainless Rolex Daytona that would sell way faster. If you're gonna drop this kind of money on a watch get a Philippe Patek grand complication.

I am an avid watch collector but $270k for a PD without complication seems to be rather stiff. For $270k, I would rather get an entry level minute repeater.

BTW, a small correction; Rolex is definitely not a high end watch but a well made daily wear watch which is is very well known.

$270k can get a nice Perpetual calendar with Turbion.

Completely agreed...

I'd love to get the cost breakdown of this. I think they should throw one in with every GT2RS purchase.

Well, first I think I would take a new GT2 and some cash left over before I would buy any watch at that price.....but if I were going to buy a watch in that range this would be my choice.....IWC all the way.

Or this one and the GT2

Go to Singapore and you will see so many 100K watches for sale it is truely amazing. I am sure there are many like shops in the Middle Eastern cities such as Dubai, etc that have similar selections.

I love watches but I stick with Breitling. To me they are the most attractive watch made today.

That is about $265k more than I would spend on a watch. Who makes this piece anyway? I'm sure Porsche doesn't make their own watches right.
