Description

The 901 GW Chelsea is made from the Porsche 993 ‘Chelsea Grey’, in collaboration with Gunther Werks.

California-based Gunther Werks set out to answer a hypothetical question: what if Porsche were to build a 993 GT3RS? Gunther Werks vehicles have since become synonymous with modern and respectful homage of Porsche 993’s iconic heritage – a high-performance, bespoke vehicle paying homage to the naturally aspirated Porsches of a quarter-century ago.

Developed in close collaboration with Gunther Werks founder and CEO Peter Nam, this ultra-limited edition timepiece has been designed to capture the unique blend of rugged beauty and superlative performance that characterizes all Gunther Werks creations.

Each 901 GW Chelsea includes recycled carbon fiber from the Chelsea Grey commission project, Gunther Werks’ very first customer commission vehicle.

Carbon

Connoisseurs

During the restomod process, Gunther Werks strips each vehicle back to its frame before dressing it in their own carbon fiber bodywork.

Once this is complete, the car is fitted with a 4.0 L naturally aspirated air-cooled engine, hand-built and meticulously tuned by Rothsport Racing to develop over 400 bhp and 330 lb/ft.

Gunther Werks provided us with carbon fiber from the Chelsea Grey build process, which we subsequently granulated and reforged with new carbon fiber to produce the visible middle section of the 901 GW Exoskeleton’s case.

The use of recycled components in the case itself, as opposed to the dial, marks a departure from our usual way of working.

The 901

Remastered

The REC x Gunther Werks project was a two-year undertaking that perfectly illustrates both companies uncompromising approach to quality, details and finishing.

Featuring a certified Swiss-made chronograph, a fully in-house developed 6-piece case structure including recycled carbon fiber and a brand new dial layout in an arresting color scheme, this timepiece was a real labor of love of which REC are extremely proud.

The 901 GW Chelsea simultaneously represents an all-new platform for the 901 Collection. Since its introduction in 2017, the 901 Collection has featured Miyota-based movements in 6 different limited edition models. With these all but sold out, our vision for the 901 GW Chelsea project was to take the 901 Collection to the next level.
