Taking inspiration from the natural beauty of the Ore Mountains, Glashütte Original created a new version of its PanoMaticLunar model featuring a dial whose colour captures the intense shades of green of the coniferous forests surrounding the manufactory. Matched to a brown nubuck leather strap with pin buckle (ref. 1-90-02-13-32-02) or foldover clasp (ref. 1-90-02-13-32-31) or equipped with a stainless steel bracelet (ref. 1-90-02-13-32-70), the PanoMaticLunar in forest green will be available worldwide from all Glashütte Original Boutiques as of June 2020 with retail prices starting from Euro 9,400.
Taking inspiration from the natural beauty of the Ore Mountains, Glashütte Original created a new version of its PanoMaticLunar model featuring a dial whose colour captures the intense shades of green of the coniferous forests surrounding the manufactory.
Produced in the watchmaker's in-house dial manufactory in Pforzheim, the dial of the new PanoMaticLunar has a colour gradient that starts from an intense dark green in the centre and changes gradually to black at the edges.
This unique and eye-catching result is obtained by first giving the dial a coat of galvanic nickel, then spraying the outer edge with black lacquer. The entire surface is then coated with transparent green lacquer.
The silver-coloured moon of the moon phase display is also crafted in Pforzheim. Two slightly convex moons are cut using a milling tool. Their surfaces are then polished with a diamond milling tool, which lends them a unique brilliance. An elaborate galvanic procedure produces the silver of the star-studded night sky.
Framed by a polished and satin-brushed stainless steel case with a diameter of 40 mm and a total thickness of 12.7 mm, the dial, with the characteristic off-centre positioning of the displays, is an expression of the Golden Ratio, a law of aesthetic harmony.
The auxiliary dials for hours and minutes and for the small seconds are placed along a vertical axis within the left half of the dial, while the Panorama Date appears at 4 o‘clock. The white gold hands with Super-LumiNova inlays form a sparkling contrast to the green of the dial.
The sapphire crystal case back showcases the beautifully finished Calibre 90-02 in-house movement.
Beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering an autonomy of 42 hours, this movement sports the typical three-quarter plate construction enhanced by Glashütte stripe finish, blued screws and the hand-engraved balance cock with duplex swan-neck fine adjustment.
