Offered for sale is an exceptionally preserved and highly collectible Porsche Design by IWC Compass Moon Phases reference 3551, one of the most unusual and technically fascinating watches ever produced during the legendary collaboration between Porsche Design and IWC in the late 1980s and early 1990s. With its minimalist Bauhaus-inspired design, hidden compass construction and moon phase complication, the Ref. 3551 remains one of the most iconic neo-vintage Porsche Design watches ever made.
This watch is preserved in beautiful New Old Stock / unworn condition, showing only minimal storage signs of wear accumulated over decades of careful storage. The black coated case and bracelet are exceptionally well preserved — something very rarely seen on these models today, as most examples on the market show significant wear.
The watch was fully serviced by our in-house certified watchmaker on 06.05.2026 and is functioning perfectly. With the watch comes our PW Service Certificate together with PW Certificate of Authenticity.
The watch comes as a beautiful full set, including its original leather presentation box, original Porsche Design screwdriver, original International Guarantee Card, and original bracelet, which is suitable for a wrist size up to 19 cm.
Powered by the automatic IWC Caliber 375, the watch features an integrated concealed compass beneath the hinged double-case construction, along with moon phase and date complications. According to the case and movement serial numbers, the watch is circa 1990–1991 production.
A rare opportunity to acquire a true collector-grade example of one of the most distinctive Porsche Design by IWC watches ever produced.
