Orlando Bloom x Porsche Design
Orlando Bloom is known for playing a variety of roles in numerous Hollywood movies. He is also a long-time Porsche enthusiast.
It has now been announced that Orlando Bloom has been appointed as the brand ambassador for Porsche watches and eyewear.
The new image campaign features Orlando Bloom wearing a Porsche chronograph and sunglasses and spectacles.
Orlando Bloom says:
"It is a great honour to be a brand ambassador for Porsche Design. I was excited about the idea of a partnership from the first time we spoke. I immediately felt that the Porsche Design team and I share a common passion for great design and a similar mindset.
Porsche has a unique way of expressing the unmistakable design and timeless elegance of an iconic model like the 911 in its lifestyle products. The combination of sports car-inspired aesthetics, unique heritage and an exclusive lifestyle really fascinates me.
I'm very happy to now be part of this success story."
And that.
The "911" of the watch world
The highlight of the "Timepiece Campaign" is the "Chronograph 1 – All Black Numbered Edition."
This model continues the tradition of the iconic Chronograph 1, designed in 1972 by FA Porsche, designer of the legendary Porsche 911.
This model revolutionized the watch industry as the first all-black chronograph and was directly inspired by the dashboard of a Porsche 911.
It is said to be undergoing a complete redesign before being re-released by Porsche Design in 2022.
Like all Porsche Design watches, this one is handcrafted at the Porsche watch factory in Solothurn, Switzerland, where automotive engineering excellence and Swiss watchmaking artistry come together.
The current visual is presented in the brand's signature colors of black and red, set alongside the Porsche 911, the watch's source of inspiration.
Porsche Design Eyewear
The eyewear campaign centres around the iconic P'8478 model, along with six other sunglasses and spectacles from the new 2025 Porsche Design Eyewear collection.
The Porsche Design P'8478 model was designed by FA Porsche in 1978 as the first ever sunglasses model with an interchangeable lens system.
Its innovative quick-release mechanism allows users to easily interchange the teardrop-shaped, 6 base curve lenses, which come in a range of colours, to seamlessly adapt to different light conditions.
Made from ultra-lightweight titanium and scratch-resistant, virtually unbreakable polycarbonate, it combines innovative design with premium performance and durability.
By the way, this limited edition "Sunglasses P'8478 - Turbo No. 1" has the original paint colour of the vehicle and the legendary chequered pattern.
The lenses have a checkered pattern! Amazing!
