The law of unintended consequence can have some strange outcomes. Who would have thought a long-running feud between two halves in the Porsche family could result in the iconic military watch of the 1980s.

Louise was married to Anton Piech,Patek Philippe Replica a colleague of Professor Porsche. Ferry and Piech began to have a rift, and the tension continued for 20 years.
