A couple of years ago Glashütte Original decided to spice up some members of its vintage-style Sixties collection with lively colours and textured dials. Fuelled by the success of the 2015 colourful Sixties models, GO went one step further and came out with even more radical dial colours that would not have looked amiss at […]
Tutima, the German brand from Glashütte with a solid tradition of pilot’s watches, launches the M2 Coastline Chronograph. Modelled on the brand’s purpose-built pilot’s watch, the famous Military Chronograph Ref. 798 (aka as the official NATO watch) of 1984, the M2 Coastline is a super-solid, super-instrumental, highly-legible and water-resistant chronograph in a brushed titanium case […]
Frederique Constant’s Vintage Rally collection is a family of sporty retro-style watches inspired by the world of classic cars. To be precise, by the world of the Austin-Healey, a British sports car built from 1959-1967.

For those who think that watches produced by Glashütte Original are quite austere, with silver-coloured dials and blue elements, the brand’s recent launches might prove them wrong.

With its 42mm cushion-shaped case and 1970s vibe, the 9.4mm height of the case remained surprisingly slim for an automatic sports watch and reflects Piaget’s tradition of watches with lean profiles. For 2020, Piaget introduces a new version of […]
