My precious
With its own dial manufacture in Pforzheim, Glashütte Original takes pride in giving watches refined faces. The new boutique edition of the PanoMatic Luna boasts a sublime blue mother-of-pearl dial adorned by a silvery moon and sparkling diamonds.
The fragile organic material demands extreme care and caution for the crafting of the dial. In order to achieve precisely the right colour, the back of the delicate white base material is coated with a layer of lacquer. Mother of pearl’s naturally-textured hues lend the dial additional character and make each watch unique.
With a graceful moon relief appearing against a silver-coloured, starry sky, the moon phase display further showcases the dialmaker’s craftsmanship. Its elegant curves emerge as the result of careful, skilfully executed diamond milling, which gives the moon phase greater visual depth.
At 4 o’clock, an oval window shows the signature Panorama Date based on two dial discs, mounted concentrically on the same level. In this way the two numerals comprising the date can be presented without the central separation bar typical of common date displays, thus assuring optimal legibility.
Other displays include the small seconds overlapping the off-centre hour/minute dial dazzling with brilliant-cut diamonds set on its nine rod-shaped indexes.
The diamond-set bezel and winding crown further makes it a precious timepiece, whose sapphire crystal case back provides a view of the exquisitely-decorated movement and its traditional elements such as the duplex swan neck fine adjustment, the three-quarter plate, blued screws and the characteristic Glashütte decorative finishings.
