Glashütte Original Spot Evolution Panorama Date

Tired of the standard horological fare? Looking for a dive watch with a certain je ne sais quois? 

We’ve got you covered.

German watchmaking has some of the most innovative brands doing business today, of which Glashütte Original ranks among the finest. Its Sport Evolution Panorama Date works in one of the company’s key features — the outsize date — and renders it in a stunning, precious metal case for that key “wow” factor. 

Measuring 42mm in 18K rose gold, it features a signed crown, a sapphire crystal, and a unidirectional, rotating timing bezel with a black insert. A luminous, satin black dial with applied indices has the outsize date feature at 4 o’clock, its black wheel with bright white numerals leaving no mistake as to the correct date. A lume-filled baton handset and a red-tipped seconds hand matches the red 5-minute indices around the periphery of the dial, while a white 1/5th-seconds track allows for ultra-precise timekeeping.

Powering the watch is the automatic Glashütte Original Caliber 39-42 movement with 44 jewels and a power reserve of 40 hours. Finely decorated with hand-engraved designs, beveled edges, and Geneva stripes, it’s visible via a sapphire display caseback. Meanwhile, finishing the package is a signed, black alligator leather strap with a signed, rose gold pin buckle and a quick-release system. 

Accompanied by its factory goodies, this 2000s-era diver is waiting for the discerning collector who desires more from his dive watch. We know that person will love it as much as we do!

Located in the famed horological center of Glashütte, Glashütte Original has a long and storied history of timepiece manufacturing that dates back to 1845, when watchmaking first came to the small German town. Following World War II, Glashütte’s watchmaking activities were nationalized under the GDR, and all local watchmaking enterprises were united under the VEB Glashütter Uhrenbetriebe (GUB), a state-owned entity.
Following the fall of the Berlin Wall, the GUB was privatized and subsequently purchased by Bavarian businessman Heinz W. Pfeifer. Pfeifer restructured the firm, eventually selling it to the Swatch Group. The name given to the new entity, Glashütte Original, is a nod to the pocket watches produced in the German town in the 19th century, which bore this as a signature to deter counterfeiting.
Today’s ‘G.O’ creates up to 95% of its watch components, preserving the savoir-faire of its German namesake. From highly complicated calendar movements to stylish dress watches and tough-as-nails divers, Glashütte Original’s wares are a testament to Germany’s watchmaking achievements — achievements that rival its Swiss counterparts in execution and finesse.
