About this model:
In 1978 Porsche Design collaborated with IWC to create a unique watch design with a compass and an emergency beacon mirror fitted inside the case. The case and the bracelet were made from a special hardened aluminum alloy with a PVD coating added on top. This model was designed with a hinged case that allows the top portion to flip open by pressing the buttons on the side of the lugs. Inside, it reveals a compass and an emergency beacon mirror. In addition, all magnetic components were replaced with non-magnetic components to prevent any interference with the accuracy of the compass.
From the Porsche Design Heritage collection the P'6520 Compass Watch, is a re-issue of the IW3510 watch from 1978, the first watch in the watchmaking industry to be equipped with a compass. The original version was made in aluminum, today the case and the bracelet are in titanium with PVD coating. The Compass also benefits from the current technologies, it was a dry compass it is now a liquid compass. This limited edition to 911 pieces perfectly reflects the design of Porsche Design.
