Key visual promoting the latest “Chronograph 1”
Porsche Design has released its latest campaign visuals featuring Orlando Bloom wearing the Chronograph 1 – All Black Number Edition and photographed with a 911.
The highlight of Orlando Bloom’s timepiece campaign is the “Chronograph 1 – All Black Numbered Edition.”
This model inherits the legacy of the Chronograph 1, designed in 1972 by FA Porsche (Ferdinand Alexander Porsche), the designer of the original Porsche 911. The Chronograph 1 was inspired by the dashboard of the Porsche 911 and revolutionized the watch industry as the first all-black chronograph.
In 2022, the Chronograph 1 was completely redesigned and reissued by Porsche Design. Like all Porsche Design timepieces, it is entirely handmade at the Porsche Design watchmaking workshop in Solothurn, Switzerland. It is a perfect fusion of Porsche’s automotive engineering and Swiss watchmaking techniques.
The released campaign visuals are unified in the signature black and red colors of Porsche Design. It was shot against the backdrop of the original Porsche 911, which is the inspiration for the “Chronograph 1 – All Black Number Edition.” Stephan Büscher, CEO of the Porsche Lifestyle Group, added the following about Blum’s appointment:
“Orlando Bloom embodies the Porsche Design lifestyle and embodies our shared values and authentic style. His universally beloved charm and popularity will further enhance Porsche Design’s global recognition and favorable brand image. We look forward to working together on many exciting and innovative projects in the future.”
