Another Porsche Design by Orfina, Ref 7750

In Response To: Re: Porsche Design by Orfina, Ref 7750 *PIC* ()

Here's another of the early ones, currently listed For Sale on ChronoTrader.

These are definitely smaller than the Pasadena.

Speaking of the Pasadena, looking at these watches made me wonder why Heuer waited so long to offer this style of case. Heuer went all the way through the 1970s, with the Montreal, Calculator, Silverstone, Daytona, etc., and only arrived at the Pasadena in 1979. Of course, we all know of the failed attempt to put the PVD on a Monaco; Heuer also tried PVD on the barrel-shaped Carrera (1974), the Monza (1977), etc., but it seems that Heuer waited a long time to use the "military" style case.
