[Stuttgart], August 7, 2014 - Porsche Driver's Selection is expanding its Masterpieces Collection launched in 2013 with an exclusive rim wall clock. 

Like all products in the collection, the wall clock is also made from a genuine sportscar part: a 20-inch Porsche 911 turbo rim. The clock is made in Germany and available now in Porsche Centres and at www.porsche.com/shop.

The Porsche 911 turbo rim gives the wall clock, which is designed by the Porsche Design Studio, its unique look. Both hands are made of aluminium, painted in the Porsche exterior colour "Indian Red". The Porsche crest is in the centre of the rim and rotates with the minute hand, thanks to the integrated quartz watch mechanism from Germany.

A steel wall rack guarantees that the clock, which weighs eight kilograms, is securely mounted. The wall clock is a genuine Porsche, right down to the last detail: the clock is even hung on the wall with a faithful recreation of a Porsche valve cap.

The rim wall clock goes perfectly with the office chair made from a Porsche 911 sports seat and the GT3 cup shelf made from a Porsche 911 GT3 cup rear spoiler. Details of these and other products in the Porsche Driver's Selection range can be found in Porsche Centres around the world. Not all products are universally available.

Porsche Design Kitchen for the Ritz in Paris

Poggenpohl and Porsche Design Extend Cooperation and Plan New Kitchen

**BEST ARCHIVE NEWS**[Stuttgart/Herford], June 14, 2010 - The premium kitchen manufacturer Poggenpohl and the luxury brand Porsche Design have extended their licence partnership until 2014.

The licence agreement between the two premium brands exists since 2005, when the two companies developed and launched their first successful luxury kitchen - the P'7340. Both companies have also agreed upon an option to develop and produce a new model with a lower starting price than the present P'7340 luxury model.

Elmar Duffner, Managing Director of Poggenpohl Möbelwerke GmbH is extremely satisfied with the extension of the licence agreement and says: "The brand cooperation arrangement between Porsche Design and Poggenpohl is a success story. I am very much looking forward to continue our mutual work".


"The Porsche Design luxury kitchen matches perfectly our product range and with Poggenpohl we have found the ideal partner", says Dr Juergen Gessler, CEO of the Porsche Design Group. "With its purist design, the P'7340 contributes to the integrity of the brand's typical clean and sleek look. Nowadays the kitchen increasingly becomes an important venue in a household. Our luxury model is the ideal kitchen not only for those who love cooking but also for people with high tech affinity."

Today Porsche Design kitchens from Poggenpohl can be found in exclusive private households and apartment complexes all over the world. Whether in Dubai, Bangalore, Florida, Hamburg, Hong Kong, Lisbon, Moscow, Paris or Zurich - wherever deep-pocketed customers and apartment complex investors attach importance to exquisite quality and exclusivity, the P'7340 is the number one choice.


The latest example is the legendary Ritz Hotel in Paris. Managers of the luxury establishment ordered a black Porsche Design kitchen to be integrated into the hotel's most expensive suite. The "Imperial" measures an area of 200 square metres with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom (approx. costs per night: €10,000). Regular guests of the luxury suite include for example members of European and Arab royal families. Before the Porsche Design kitchen was fitted, the luxury suite was lavishly renovated, forgoing an extra bedroom in favour of the kitchen.

Another order for a Porsche Design kitchen comes from the Portuguese capital Lisbon. This is where an exclusive apartment building is being constructed in the famous Chiado quarter. Poggenpohl is delivering seven Porsche Design P'7340 luxury models for this project. Around the world, kitchens of the Porsche Design luxury brand are meanwhile sold at some 90 selected dealers and the company's own exclusive Poggenpohl studios.
