Looking at our stats, I see that demand for recommendations regarding diving watches is a seasonal thing with most visitors coming in summer and then gradually declining till Christmas only to start growing again in early January.

Like many wristwatches that were introduced recently by Swiss-based and German majors, the new Glashutte Original Seventies Chronograph Panorama Date is strongly inspired by models from the 1970s. Simple and elegant, the watch (especially versions with ruthenium grey and galvanized blue dials) offers superb legibility and is powered by a nicely decorated Caliber 37-02 self-winding movement with 70 hours of power reserve and one of the most refined oscillating weights that money can buy.

Deliciously vintage, yet absolutely modern, the new Glashutte Original Sixties Panorama Date (ref. 39-47-06-02-04) successfully delivers everything that one could expect from a contemporary timepiece inspired by the roaring 1960s. With this new device, you get a clean, easily readable dial, as well as a meticulously designed and gorgeously executed self-winding caliber packed into a perfectly sculpted case.

Last month at Basel, the German watchmaker has presented its new take on their bestselling Glashutte Original PanoMaticLunar automatic watch. Coming in a little bit larger case than the outgoing model, the timepiece is available both in expensive rose (with a reddish tint to it) gold and in a more affordable stainless steel and can be ordered on a wide choice of straps, including a steel bracelet that adds to the grad total almost a thousand more Euros. Now, tell me about price targeting.

I somehow missed it last year when the German watch manufacturer has introduced its elegant Glashutte Original Senator Observer model. Presented in white gold, it was as beautiful as it was expensive, so, for this year, the guys from the town of Glashütte decided to introduce a slightly more affordable version of the Observer in a finely crafted stainless steel body. Soon to be officially presented at Baselworld 2012, it will be designated as ref. 100-14-05-02-04.

You will need a lot of money to get one, though: it is about twice as expensive than your normal ETA 7750-based "perpetual calendar" watch in a standard rose gold body of similar size.
