Glashutte Original – PANO PanoLunarTourbillon Automatic 40mm Platinum Limited Edition 2025
How Glashütte established the metric system in watchmaking
In the year marking the 180th anniversary of Glashütte watchmaking, German watchmaker Glashütte Original opens its new dial manufactory – the only one of its kind in the renowned watchmaking city.

As part of the celebrations, the tradition-rich manufactory presents a new PanoLunarTourbillon, an expression of its devotion to craftsmanship and tradition in Glashütte. The rose-coloured dial recalls the reddish hues of iron in the earth surrounding the watchmaking town of Glashütte.

This platinum timekeeper features characteristic complications in a Limited Edition of 50 pieces: Flying Tourbillon, moon phase and Panorama Date have each left their mark on the history of the manufactory. The asymmetric design of the Pano line lends the watch a distinctive aesthetic, uniquely representative of the modern face of Glashütte Original.
A sample of Glashütte DNA
The PanoLunarTourbillon is the most recent creation marking Glashütte Original’s 2025 anniversary year, and the dial’s rose-coloured “Eisenerz” (iron ore) hue is deeply symbolic. It recalls the unique colour of the earthen landscape surrounding the town of Glashütte.

The typical reddish hue results from oxidation of high concentrations of iron in the soil, and is indicative of the region’s wealth of mineral resources. For hundreds of years, long before watchmakers made their home here, mining was one of the most important industries in this part of Germany.

One finds the famous red stone around every bend along the Müglitz, which flows close by the manufactory. A few hundred meters downriver lies the newly opened Glashütte Original dial manufactory, rising from the same red earth.
A complex dial, hand-crafted in the manufactory
The experience and wisdom gathered in 180 years of Glashütte watchmaking find expression in the PanoLunarTourbillon; consolidated savoir-faire is evident in every single component. In Glashütte itself, Glashütte Original is the only firm to have its own in-house dial making workshop.

The shimmering dial on the new PanoLunarTourbillon, with its nuanced iron-ore hue, draws on the dialmakers’ entire repertoire of craft knowledge and skills. The dial receives its reddish hue in the course of an elaborate process of galvanisation. Due to the crystalline structure of the surface, the shades of red vary, depending on the light and the viewer’s perspective, resulting in a lively play of colours.

The off-centre hour and minutes display offers a calm contrast on the left side. Its finely milled vinyl decorative finish sets this area apart, inevitably drawing the eye.
Three Glashütte specialties
The PanoLunarTourbillon’s large hour and minute display is flanked by three complications, each of which holds particular significance for the art of watchmaking in Glashütte. Beneath the time display the Flying Tourbillon turns on its axis once a minute; the small seconds hand, which is mounted on the tip of the tourbillon cage, follows the latter’s track. Invented in 1920 by the Glashütte master watchmaker Alfred Helwig, the Flying Tourbillon has long since made its way out into the world. Its monochromatic visuals lend this classic complication a modern touch. All of the components in the oscillation and escapement system appear in varying silver tones, which creates a bright focal point highlighting the delicate, seemingly weightless construction.

A further local “specialty” can be found at 4 o’clock: The Panorama Date is the signature feature of many Glashütte Original models. White numerals on a blue ground are displayed, without a central separation bar, across two concentric discs mounted on the same plane. The curved moon phase display is positioned at 2 o’clock. Over the course of many years, Glashütte Original has perfected this popular complication, to the point where it has become a distinguishing feature of the brand. The splendid depiction of a miniaturised night sky with silver stars on a dark blue ground is also manufactured at the in-house dial workshop.
Harmonious asymmetry
Like all models in the Pano line, this new timekeeper is distinguished by the asymmetric layout of the dial. The arrangement of the displays is based on the Golden Ratio, whose off-center proportions lend the dial its exquisitely harmonious appearance. This allows the PanoLunarTourbillon to enhance classical elements with a touch of avant-garde within a characteristic Glashütte design language.

The rose-coloured dial is framed by a polished and satin-brushed platinum case with a diameter of 40mm. Complementing in colour the blued hands, printed lettering, indexes and backgrounds of the Panorama Date and moon phase displays, the watch is worn with either a blue Louisiana alligator leather or synthetic fabric strap, secured by a platinum folding clasp.
Custom mechanics
Tradition and innovation go hand in hand inside the PanoLunarTourbillon as well. Its handcrafted automatic movement boasts a silicon balance spring that remains unaffected by the magnetic fields of everyday life, and features a power reserve of up to 60 hours. Its elaborate decorative enhancements, easily admired through a sapphire crystal case back, reflect the grand traditions of Glashütte watchmaking: rhodium-coated plates with Glashütte stripe finish, the base plate’s perlage, the tin-polished tourbillon cage with bevelled edges, and the skeletonised rotor’s exquisitely milled track.
