In 1978 Swiss watch manufacturer IWC launched a series of watches in cooperation with Prof. F. A. Porsche – the watches carried the sign "Porsche Design " and usually had titanium cases: today the " Titan Chronograph" is a much sought-after classic from the 1980s in a satin-finished 42 mm titanium case with black dial and IWC titanium bracelet in beautiful matt grey.
