The 901 GW Chelsea is a limited-edition timepiece made from the 993 Remastered “Chelsea Grey” Commission by Gunther Werks
REC Watches and its products are not in any way associated or supported by Porsche AG or any of its affiliates.
Based in Southern California, Gunther Werks was founded by Mr. Peter Nam on the principles of passion, performance, and a drive to embed modern technologies into a classic masterpiece.
The Gunther Werks transformation entails a modern interpretation of Porsche’s last air-cooled 911, the 993. Regarded by many as the zenith of the 911, the Gunther Werks mission is to retain the driving experience offered by the original car, while evolving its DNA and performance to new heights.
During the resto-mod production process, each vehicle is transformed by Gunther Werks. Each is stripped down to the frame before the vehicle is cloaked in their in-house produced carbon fiber bodywork.
Gunther Werks provided us with carbon fiber from the Chelsea Grey build process, which we subsequently granulated and reforged with new carbon fiber, into the visible middle section of the watch case.
The REC x Gunther Werks project was a two-year undertaking that reflects an uncompromising approach to quality, details, and finishing.
As a certified Swiss made chronograph, featuring a fully in-house developed 6-piece case structure including recycled carbon fiber, the 901 GW Chelsea is set to make a bold impression to both car- and watch enthusiasts alike.
Its striking looks is designed not only to match with the aesthetics of the donor vehicle, but also with the sporty functions of the chronograph movement.
