Glashütte Original Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date
Last year we got a pair of limited editions with exotic colors by Glashütte and now the “Original Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date” collection is back with more. It originally debuted in 2014 with a conservative blue dial, before moving on to other palettes. This latest pair has been named “Golden Bay” and “Ocean Breeze”, further widening their reach with extending offerings.The tonneau shaped 40mm case is made of stainless-steel with vertically brushed surfaces, casebands, and polished accents. Mounted by a square bezel with rounded out corners, high polished finish, and a total height of 14.1mm. This design is based on vintage aesthetics from the Saxon watchmakers back catalog. 
On the flip-side is an exhibition sapphire crystal that allows a view into the inner workings of the mechanical movement. It exposes some blue screws, an openworked rotor, and the gold Glashütte stripes finish on the bridges.
It comes equipped with a screw-down crown protected by two guards that also harmonize with the two push buttons that operate the chronograph functions: the one at 2 o'clock starts and stops the chronograph, while the other at 4 o'clock activates the flyback mechanism.
The flyback mechanism allows the central stop-seconds to be reset to zero and restarted with a single press of the pusher. Water-resistance can reach up to 100 meters (328 feet).
Time is exhibited on a matte lacquered dial in either a new “Golden Bay” which as the brand describes “exudes a warm ochre tone reminiscent of far-flung beaches and sunny lagoons”
or a Ocean Breeze that “captures the essence of fresh, clear water and gentle waves in a light gray-blue hue”
There are two snailed sub-seconds with a darker hue to create an accentuated contrast against the vibrant main colors: a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, and a sub-seconds at the 9 o’clock position, which also includes a power reserve indicator.
On the upper half of the dial is a 12-hour chronograph aperture Panorama Date feature, while the lower-half has a large outsized Panorama date-display, placed above the logo aligned at the 6 o’clock spot.
The blackened steel polished Dauphine style hands and hour index markers have all been fitted with Super-Luminova, for an enhanced legibility.
