The color plan from the Rolex Submariner Comex replica is proof of its legacy: the stainless container is an efficient complement towards the anthracite grey from the titanium bridge structure, eschewing any unnecessary aesthetic features and echoing other Porsche Design masterpieces. The only real significant color accent yellow arc that stretches over the first fifteen minutes from the diving scale stands out even more to be the singular touch of color. Every choice produced in the conception and manufacture of the timepiece follows the Porsche Design philosophy, best expressed by Prof. Porsche them self when you consider the purpose of something, its design sometimes merges of their own accord. Using titanium also hearkens back to a different Porsche Design achievement: the Sea 2000 watch, produced in 1983, Created for the divers from the German Navy, the anti-magnetic titanium watch was created to prevent leaving underwater mines because they were being disarmed.

Helpful synergies frequently arise when homological achievements and automotive savoir-faire mingle. For instance, the Porsche Carrera GT, a higher-powered sports vehicle, exerted a powerful affect on the legendary P'6910 Indicator, and today it really works its miracle around the P'6930 Chronograph, with techniques both visible and hidden. The 2 ridged push- pieces quietly are inspired through the pedals from the Rolex Submariner James Bond replica, and also the COSC-licensed automatic Valjoux 7750 movement boasts a power-enhanced rotor system by having an aesthetic foundation within the wheel rim from the Carrera GT. The strap listens to facets of auto- motive design, having a tire-tread interior that enables air to flow near the skin. The dial itself combines a lot of information using the always-crucial instant readability. A 30-minute counter is situated at 12 o'clock, day and date are in 3 o'clock, a l2-hour counter reaches 6 o'clock, and small seconds tick away at 9 o'clock. Many of these indications? And, obviously, the time? Are immediately readable, because of the clearness from the dial design. The hour and minute hands are partly Skeletonized, so they won't block the other functions around the dial, and also the solid portions are given luminescent coating, much like the numbers and hour indexes around the dial, whose honeycomb texture is yet another jerk towards the automotive roots of Porsche Design.
