Description

The Glashütte Original Sixties Chronograph Annual Edition captures the creative spirit of the 1960s while showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of German watchmaking. As part of the renowned Vintage Collection and produced only for a limited period, this distinctive chronograph combines retro-inspired aesthetics with the precision and quality expected from a true manufacture timepiece.

Its most striking feature is the vibrant purple dial, inspired by the colours that shaped album covers, band names and music culture throughout the Sixties. Crafted through an elaborate manufacturing process, the dial reveals remarkable depth and changing reflections depending on the light. The embossed texture, warm bronze accents and carefully applied details create a unique visual identity, while the breathable black textile strap reinforces the watch’s relaxed yet sophisticated character.

The polished 42 mm stainless steel case provides an elegant frame for the handcrafted dial and is topped by a slightly domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating on both sides. Powering the watch is the in-house automatic calibre 39-34, delivering precise chronograph functionality alongside hours, minutes and small seconds. Through the sapphire caseback, enthusiasts can admire traditional Glashütte finishing, including the three-quarter plate, swan-neck fine adjustment and skeletonised rotor with a 21-carat gold oscillating weight. A rare annual edition that perfectly blends individuality, mechanical excellence and vintage-inspired style.
