Funky & Fresh: The bright colours of the Seventies Glashütte Original presents a new limited-edition chronograph duo.
The Seventies groove is back! German watchmaker Glashütte Original has once again
taken inspiration from the most laid-back of all decades and now presents a new
limited edition of the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date. Two models with bright
“Watermelon” and “Swimming Pool” coloured dials bring freshness and funk to
everyday life in the 21st century. These two exotic, retro-look chronographs are
limited to 100 pieces each: two stylish Originals with genuine rarity value.
An electrifying feeling
Many decades are remarkable, but only a few enjoy genuine cult status. The Seventies are
definitely among them, and its fashion is forever being cited and re-interpreted: people wore
their hair long with bell-bottom pants and radiant colours. Every year Glashütte Original
celebrates this creative diversity with special editions of the Seventies Chronograph
Panorama Date, whose form language takes up designs from the Seventies and translates
them into a contemporary vernacular.
Two lively colours
This year the limited editions feature dials in particularly vivacious colours. “Swimming Pool“
is the name for a fresh turquoise hue, inviting the observer to dive right in. “Watermelon”, a
striking coral red, captures everyone’s attention and immediately spreads a good vibe. Both
dials have a subtle, velvety finish, which makes the intense colours easy to wear with a wide
range of outfits and on various occasions. Black rings highlight the totalizers and set them
apart visually from the dials.
Finely tuned details
The Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date’s gently curved lines appear just as dynamic
as its colours. Softly rounded corners are a signature feature of the 40 x 40 mm stainless
steel case, which is carefully polished and satin-brushed. Scratch-resistant sapphire crystal
lets the dial colours shine in all their splendour. Two straps are available for th striking pair:
either cool stainless steel or robust rubber appear to flow seamlessly into the case.
he pulse of the Seventies
This retro chronograph’s confident design language is a perfect complement to its inner
qualities. The Calibre 37-02 manufactory movement gives it a precise heartbeat and reliably

displays. The multi-talented mechanical movement with automatic winding ensures optimal
user-friendliness and boasts a power reserve up to 70 hours, while the chronograph profits
from a column wheel with flyback function.
The entire movement is enhanced by traditional
Glashütte finishing: the edges are beveled and polished, the tiny screws are polished and
blued. The characteristic three-quarter plate, balance cock and skeletonized rotor are
adorned with the refined Glashütte stripe finish.
The two new Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date models in “Watermelon” and
“Swimming Pool” hues are each limited 100 pieces, and are available from August 2024 in
all Glashütte Original Boutiques and from authorised dealers worldwide.
