Porsche Design Rolls Out New Watches For Its 40th Anniversary
The Porsche Design Studio, founded by Porsche 911 designer Ferdinand Alexander Porsche, marks four decades this year.

And Iconic styling they are both luminoris it worth it to keep both of these, or in the grand scheme of things are they too similar?thoughts?
