    1 and 2 could be "original". They also came in maroon/burgundy/darkred shade. I have both types. Dont know the manufacture timeline but guessing 60ies-80ies, they are often made in England by the same maker for other brands.

    3 and 4 are "aftermarket", my guess.

    An alternative to the rather subtle key pouch.

    These were of later (factory ?) style (80ies/90ies).

    Those are aftermarket key chains, I happen to have one for 30 years. The ones from PORSCHE has the white background behind the 'porsche' much
    like the small round jewel.

    Which one you mean ?
    1 and 2 on post 1 are for shure factory "original".
    As for the one on post 7 (although used one), it looks like too.
    They replaced the earlier ones with a complicated leather design to hold the P medallion, the later used a glue.




    Another one, from today

    My '68 car came with this old one. Not sure if it is aftermarket or an original. That key is pretty worn (replaced of course).
