Retro Designs With Innovative Technology

The Seventies collection from Glashütte Original is the embodiment of the spirit of the 1970s in a modern, contemporary guise. The manufacturer combines the principles of the designs of the period with sophisticated technology and the highest level of watchmaking skill. Timepieces in the line feature rounded, square stainless steel cases with clean lines and an integrated bracelet. The case diameter for all references is 40 mm. Along with dials in blue, gray, silver, and green with soft color gradients, the brand also uses bright colors such as yellow, orange, and turquoise. The dials are designed in the company’s own workshop in Pforzheim, Germany.

In addition to the three-hand watches in the Seventies Panorama Date collection, Glashütte Original offers a wide range of chronographs in the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date line. The Panorama Date at 6 o’clock on the dial is common to all the models in the collection.

Models in the Seventies collection are powered by automatic in-house calibers featuring a three-quarter plate with Glashütte ribbing. A skeletonized 21-karat gold rotor with a double “G” symbol is another highlight of these movements. A sapphire crystal case back reveals the intricately decorated caliber. Thanks to a screw-down crown, watches in the Seventies collection are water-resistant to 100 m (10 bar, 328 ft), making them suitable for swimming.
