The seventh decade of the 20th century brought an unprecedented explosion of colour to fashion and design. The new versions of the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date take inspiration not just from the decade’s colourful palette, but from its unique celebration of life as well.

With the "Golden Bay" and "Ocean Breeze" editions, each limited to 100 pieces, Glashütte Original brings a touch of summer to the wrist every day. Irresistible Seventies style merges with the precise heartbeat of fine German watchmaking.

Free spirits and the call of far-away places

Paisley patterns, floral prints, batik colour gradients – the Seventies were crazy for colour. Loose clothing and embroidered tunics in vivid shades went into the backpack when people set out to discover the world.

And there was plenty to experience, whether on the road in a painted van, soaring over the oceans in a plane or day-dreaming at a local swimming hole.

The Glashütte Original team were inspired by the Seventies´ bright colours and longing for far-away places, and transformed their magic into two lively timepieces.

Of golden bays and gentle sea breezes

The strong colours of the Seventies appear with an international favourite of the Glashütte Original Vintage Collection: The Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date. As the name suggests, the German watchmaker found inspiration in the distinct design language of Seventies shapes.

This year, two matt lacquered dial variants give this model a new look. “Golden Bay“ is a warm ochre tone evocative of far-flung beaches and sunny lagoons, while the light grey-blue “Ocean Breeze” conjures fresh, clear water and waves.

The dark shade of the two subdials, in stark contrast to the coloured background, is perfectly complemented by the black hands and display discs of the 12-hour counter and Panorama Date. The resulting vibrant contrast underscores the independent spirit of the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date – and that of the person wearing it.

Of rounded corners and a clear view

The streamlined case and gently rounded corners are the unmistakable signature of the Seventies line. The chronograph appears in a skilfully polished and satin-brushed 40 x 40 mm stainless steel case that fits every wrist.

Sapphire crystals on the front and back ensure optimal views of the dial and movement. The distinctive shape of the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date finds a perfect complement in two strap options: matt black rubber and cool stainless steel.

On Glashütte’s sense of rhythm and love of detail

Ticking inside this elegant chronograph is Glashütte Original’s own Calibre 37-02 movement with automatic winding, crafted, decorated and regulated by hand in the watchmaker’s own workshops.

The reliable driver of the hour, minute and small second displays, the Panorama Date and the flyback chronograph features up to 70 hours of power reserve.

Its filigree components are finely finished in the traditional manner of Glashütte watchmaking: with bevelled and polished edges, polished and blued screws, and with bridges, balance cock and a skeletonised rotor decorated with the famous Glashütte stripe finish. 

Proud to be the Original. #PTBTO

Glashutte Original – VINTAGE Sixties Small Second Automatic

 Premiere for the Sixties Small Second

The 1960s were bursting with creative energy. People experimented with colours, shapes and sounds, creating original, timeless classics in the process. Once again, the designers at Glashütte Original have drawn inspiration from this decade and created a timepiece that captures the spirit of the Sixties and transports it into the present. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

Fitted with a matt green alligator leather strap, the new Sixties Small Second celebrates the idea of timeless originality and lets the spotlight fall on the small seconds display.

The times are changing

The 1960s made a deep impression on our society. Their legacy in music, fashion and architecture can be seen every day, everywhere in the world. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

But miniskirts and bell-bottom trousers, rock music and shag carpets were more than just casual accessories – they were the signature of a new generation. It was all about self-expression, the desire for change and expanding one’s horizons. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

Today they are all second nature to Glashütte Original. Creativity, originality and finding new paths – these values from the Sixties still inspire the watchmaker, today and every day. The new Sixties Small Second combines both worlds with style and precision.

A new arrival with character

The Sixties models have been an integral part of the Glashütte Original Vintage Collection for years. Whether as a three-hand model or with Panorama Date, as a chronograph or a colourful limited edition: these design classics have won fans around the world, who love their subtle retro look.

Now, for the first time, the Saxon manufactory presents this elegant timekeeper complete with a small second. In this new version, the fastest of the three hands has a stage of its own, thanks to a separate display at 6 o’clock.

Domed silver dial

This small second is set within the galvanic silver dial and decorated with a fine vinyl-type finish.

The hands are colour-matched to the 42-mm case in rose gold, as are the indexes and numerals, whose typeface references the 1960s

The sapphire crystal, which is anti-reflective on both sides, offers superb legibility, its domed shape echoed in the lightly curved form of the dial and hands.

The right rhythm

Inside the watch is an intricate automatic movement, elaborately hand-crafted in the brand’s own workshops.

The 39-60 manufactory calibre beats at 28,800 half-oscillations per hour, driving the hour, minute and small second displays reliably and precisely. Its individual components feature refined decorative finishes, including Glashütte stripes, bevelled edges, and polished screws.

Together with the skeletonized rotor and its signature double-G logo, these exquisite details can be admired in all their glory through the specially formed sapphire crystal case back, which wraps comfortably around the wrist.

Glashutte Original – SeaQ Chronograph Blue Dials Automatic

 

Glashutte OriginalSpezialist SeaQ Chronograph Blue Dials Automatic 2022

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

 Write your own adventure!
The SeaQ Chronograph celebrates its premiere

Once again, the manufactory from the German watchmaking town of Glashütte presents the real thing – a genuine original in more ways than one. The new SeaQ Chronograph is the first diver’s watch from Glashütte Original to be equipped with a chronograph movement. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

The new model features a handmade automatic movement designed to accompany contemporary adventurers wherever they go – a challenge the designers at Glashütte Original took on with great sensitivity and creativity. The result? A modern mechanical movement full of originality.

The challenge

In developing the new chronograph, Glashütte Original based the design concept on four considerations: how can it be made as accurate, robust, easy to use and aesthetically pleasing as possible? For the new SeaQ Chronograph, the bar was set exceptionally high. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

The objective was to develop a flyback chronograph that handles short-term measurement reliably and to combine it with a watch that meets the rigorous requirements of the ISO and DIN standards for diver’s watches. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

The stakes could not be higher: to ensure that a handmade, finely crafted mechanism was ready – not just for everyday use, but for extreme conditions.

Short-term measurement meets diver’s watch

A diver’s life may well depend on their watch functioning properly. For this reason, the watches in the SeaQ family are subjected to rigorous testing to ensure they meet the ISO 6425 and DIN 8306 standards. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

They must withstand extreme temperature changes, resist saltwater corrosion, ensure optimal legibility in the dark and have a unidirectional rotating bezel with a scale allowing the diver to determine how much time remains for the dive. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

For the water resistance test, Glashütte Original exceeded the standard and tested the SeaQ up to a pressure of 30 bar (300 meters). The watchmaker also set its own high standards for the chronograph: the watch had to have a column wheel switch and a flyback mechanism. The designers took these and many other aspects into account as they developed the SeaQ Chronograph.

Under the loupe: a tiny turn for greater shock resistance

One of the requirements for diver’s watches: shock resistance from a height of one meter. Apparently straightforward, it’s a nightmare for everyone who owns a mechanical watch – in reality a situation one would avoid at all costs.

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

The watchmakers at Glashütte Original examined this aspect closely, using a special device under laboratory conditions. In particular, the key point – if the watch is dropped – is to ensure that the dial does not buckle or warp on impact, which could interfere with, or even block, the hands. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

As a result, the designers placed a hollow hexagonal socket screw, made of stainless steel, in the centre of the dial. It is placed from above over the hand shafts, thus fixing the dial to the plate before the hands are mounted. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

Thanks to this small but very effective construction detail, the dial remains securely in place, even in the event of a shock.

Under the loupe: even more space for rate precision

Both resistance and rate precision are of fundamental importance for the functional reliability of a mechanical watch. This also involves the effort to achieve optimally uniform – isochronous – oscillation of the balance, in every position and even while the chronograph is running. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

For this reason, Glashütte Original’s designers chose to intervene directly in the architecture of the SeaQ Chronograph movement. The balance was given more space, allowing it to oscillate unhindered and thus gain a few degrees of valuable amplitude. They created space to move freely – for the watch and the person wearing it.

Under the loupe: a versatile crown offers even greater ease of use

The SeaQ Chronograph’s short-term measurement is a world of its own. It features a flyback function, i.e. reset and restart of the stop hand on the fly, central stop-seconds, and a 30- minute counter at 3 o’clock; all are operated using the two pushers on the edge of the case. In addition, Glashütte Original’s signature Panorama Date is found just above 6 o’clock. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

All of these displays are easily set via the crown: in position 1, the automatic movement is wound, in position 2 the date can be corrected, and in position 3, the time can be set while the second stop is activated. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO

This design made it possible to do without a separate date corrector on the side of the case, thus enhancing the water resistance of the watch.

A contemporary chronograph movement

The automatic movement Calibre 37-23 combines maximum resistance, precision and userfriendliness with a running time of over 70 hours. The silicon balance spring offers enhanced resistance to the influence of magnetic fields, for example, and thanks to its steady oscillation, greater rate precision. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

The entire movement is elaborately decorated by hand with great skill and sensitivity, and can be admired through its sapphire crystal case back – by no means a given with a diver’s watch.

A sporty and elegant companion for any and all adventures

The debut model of the SeaQ Chronograph is dressed in dark blue, from the handmade dial to the unidirectional rotating bezel with ceramic inlay. The hour, minute and stop-seconds hands are coated with highly luminous Super-LumiNova®, as are the indexes and the triangle symbol on the bezel. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO  The stainless steel case, 43.2 mm in diameter, is fitted front and back with sapphire crystals, and the fluted screw-down crown has a fine wave decoration. Four different straps are available: a dark blue rubber strap, a stainless steel link bracelet, and two synthetic fabric straps made from recycled fishnets, in grey or blu

A special premiere

For the Glashütte Original team, the development of the new SeaQ Chronograph turned into a multi-year voyage of discovery. Now the watch is ready to accompany its owners from all over the world on their own uniquely individual adventures.

Glashutte Original – Lady Serenade – Edition for Valentine’s Day 2022

  

Glashutte OriginalLady Serenade – Limited Edition for Valentine’s Day 2022

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

On February 14th, right on time, the world stands under the sign of love. Valentine’s Day has become a fixture in our calendars.  

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

Just like a romantic floral bouquet, what is perhaps the most beautiful feeling in the world unfolds in all its splendour on this day. 

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO 

The new limited-edition Lady Serenade from Glashütte Original reflects the secret strength that lives within love. Graceful, feminine and infinitely precious, it captures the magic of love for all time.

A new beginning

By Valentine’s Day in mid-February, also nature has already begun to prepare for its grand entrance. The crocus is the first to appear.  

Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO  

The small messenger of spring stands in stubborn defiance of the snow, its colourful buds causing hearts to beat faster. Glashütte Original’s watchmakers have drawn inspiration from its gentle strength and incomparable charm to create their latest Valentine’s Day model.

Eight heart-shaped indexes in pink sapphire crystal encounter a sparkling bezel set with 52 diamonds.

The diamond cabochon forms an elegant contrast to the finely shimmering mother-of-pearl dial with rhodium-plated applied numerals and hands.

The strap, fashioned from Louisiana alligator leather, is dressed in the colour of spring’s messenger.

Exceptionally resistant

Despite its delicate appearance, the crocus is unusually strong and enduring. Things are no different when it comes to love. And the exquisite Lady Serenade, too, has proven strength. Its precious components are securely protected in a fully polished 36 mm stainless steel case.

 Click, to see the large size. BIG FOTO  

Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal on the front and back ensures optimal clarity, and water resistance up to 5 bar (50 metres) makes the watch, which is limited to 50 pieces, wonderfully suited to everyday use.

Within the calm there is power

As spring approaches, many a heart inevitably gets into turmoil. The Lady Serenade, on the other hand, keeps a cool head under all circumstances and has a reliable power reserve of 40 hours. Its regular pulse beats at a frequency of 28,800 half-oscillations per hour that cannot be disturbed.

The 39-22 automatic movement is lovingly crafted, finely decorated and regulated by hand by the watchmakers in the Saxon manufactory’s workshops.
