Thank you for the information! I really appreciate it!
Yes, it is a Ref. 3500 with the Bandgeometrie 3 bracelet (the most secure one) and a fresh 2025 service with IWC, so it is very nice, even though I personally like the "Porsche Design by IWC" dial even more (also the "PD Porsche Design" and "IWC Porsche Design" versions, but they are rare.) Also this offred set has all the papers, as it seems to be to be offered by its first owner. Missing only the cardboard box. Though decision, as I measure my wrist and try to imagine how it would fit.
IWC Porsche Design Ocean 2000?
A funky beauty. Patina, condition, design. This watch has everything to please, except the fact that it is not mine! Best, Nicolas ...
Shame they won't/can't make it anymore
I find it very attractive and it could live side by side with the aquatimer line-up.
Just for me to get an impression...

My wrist is 7"...
...I also had an Ocean 500, which I ended up selling because I was wearing my Ocean 2000 all the time
Bracelet versions…
…you might already know this, but just in case, early iteration of Ocean 2000 had a bracelet with springs that were holding individual links together, while the latter version (e.g. mine) has pins, which withstood the test of time better.

An unlikely watch to be 'reproduced' at this point of history....
A few participants mentioned how nice it would be if IWC starts making this watch again. Yet given the history of this watch when the stars aligned--literally!--it is unlikely that this watch would be produced at this point of history. To my knowledge, it...
That really is a stunning looking IWC Porsche Design Ocean 2000.
This was one of the first IWC watches I ever lusted after, but never quite managed to acquire one. the caramel colour of the hour markers and the slightly lighter colour of the hands hands just look fantastic against the black dial such a gorgeous looking...
Thank you for the awesome video…
In my nearly four decades of ownership, the Ti chrono tends to catch the eyes of youngsters (think teen boys); the Ti Kompassuhr tends to wow my design students when I was teaching design; and no one but watch nerds remark about the 2000–which says someth...
