Glashütte Original has unveiled two striking special editions of its Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date, once again demonstrating how watchmaking tradition can embrace the aesthetics of tomorrow. For the brand’s designers, the Seventies Chronograph is more than a timepiece — it is a canvas for creativity, where enduring design meets the spirit of its era.
Inspired by a Digital Utopia
This year’s special editions draw inspiration from the concept of a digital utopia, a vision of blurred boundaries between physical reality and virtual worlds. The result: bold dials that reinterpret vintage style through futuristic hues, making a statement about progress, transformation, and modernity.
The two standout colours — “Plasma” violet and “Fusion” lime green — shift in tone depending on the light and angle of view.
This dynamic quality lends the dials an ever-changing vibrancy, while a velvety matte finish ensures that the colours remain versatile and wearable. Each design is further accentuated by galvanic black totalisers featuring a fine “vinyl” decorative pattern, reinforcing the retro-futuristic aesthetic.
A Retro-Futuristic Take on the Seventies Chronograph
Beyond their eye-catching palette, these limited editions retain the signature elements that define the Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date: a cushion-shaped case, bold yet balanced proportions, and Glashütte Original’s hallmark craftsmanship.
● Strap Options: Each version is available on a matte black rubber strap for a sporty look, or a metal bracelet with fine adjustment for maximum comfort and versatility.
● Limited Availability: Both the “Plasma” and “Fusion” editions are strictly limited to 100 pieces each, underscoring their exclusivity.
Colours of Tomorrow in a Vintage Frame
By merging a vintage chronograph design with colours that speak to technology, progress, and the blending of realities, Glashütte Original captures the essence of today’s evolving cultural dialogue.
These timepieces aren’t just wristwatches — they are wearable reflections of how tradition and innovation coexist, and how horology can embody both heritage and forward-looking artistry.
The Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date Plasma and Fusion editions will be available worldwide in Glashütte Original boutiques and through selected retailers from mid-August 2025.
