Glashütte Original is announcing two new variations of the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date with bright-colored dials: the Swimming Pool with a turquoise dial and the Watermelon with a coral-red dial. Each Seventies Chronograph is limited to 100 pieces.
They retain their cushion-shaped case inspired by the 1970s watches made by Glashütte Original’s East German predecessor. The 40mm by 40mm square case is polished and satin-brushed, with a 14.1mm height and 46.4mm lug-to-lug distance.
The matte lacquer dials feature subdials at 9 o’clock (small seconds), 3 o’clock (30-minute counter), and 12 o’clock (12-hour counter), with a Panorama Date at 6 o’clock. A discreet power reserve indicator is integrated into the small seconds subdial. For the first time, black rings are added to the subdials for contrast.
The watch houses the Glashütte Original Caliber 37-02, visible through the display caseback. The movement is a vertical-clutch, column-wheel chronograph with a 70-hour power reserve and a silicon balance spring for anti-magnetism. The movement is finished with striping, beveling, blued screws, and a gold rotor.
