Glashütte Original – Sixties Iconic Square

German watchmaker – Glashütte Original comes again with the new iconic collection after its successful launch of the Sixties Iconic in 2015.

From the very beginning I was more than sure that besides phenomenal Seventies collection, Sixties Iconic will become my favorite among the Glashütte Original’s range.

 

 

This year I am totally delighted to see the chronograph version with the same 1960s spirit and design code, as the formerly presented timepieces back in 2015. Smoothness of its design and slick elegance of the cushion-shaped case, which was really popular those times, makes this collection an eye-candy for vintage connoiseurs. 

 

 

Sixties Iconic Square collection is featured with 5 watches varying in the colour and the visual effect of the dial, which was inspired by “Spezimatic” range produced in the 1960s. The techniques by which these dials were created are the same as from 1960s.

 

Let’s see these new watches in full without a further ado !
