The IWC-Porsche Design Compass Watch grew out of a 1977 meeting with Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" Porsche of Porsche Design, debuting in late 1978 as ref. 3510. Its hinged, four-part case can be released from the wrist without tools and set onto a map, revealing a compass shock-mounted in self-lubricating bearings and rated to 30 m; the aluminum-alloy case, roughly 39 mm across and 12 mm tall, wears a black PVD coating. IWC followed it with the titanium-cased ref. 3511 and, in 1985, the moonphase ref. 3551. (Oracle Time)
