    Hello...I bought my watch very cheaply at a vintage fair. The stallholder knew nothing about watches, so perhaps I got a bargain. The watch feels fantastic. It has signs of wear and tear, but I love it. I haven't come across this particular design, looking at sites, although I have seen plenty with the IWC and Porsche Design wording. I was wondering if anyone could tell me more about the watch. The face says IWC Porsche Design, with Quartz lower down. On the back it BASE METAL BEZEL and STAINLESS STEEL BACK. The numbers are tricky to read. CV - 3456? PAL- 7890. Can't be sure about the numbers because of the wear. Kind regards, David.

    I am with HEBE, never saw a Porsche Design IWC case like this one, I am afraid it is a fake one.

    Hello and many thanks for comments. I am sure it must be an old fake. I have taken a picture of the back, anyway. I've no idea what the numbers mean. I would appreciate any feedback.

    I was just wondering, as it's a fake, where were these made, and when?
