PanoReserve
Stylish and sophisticated with a subtle German touch

Three variations of an Art & Technik masterpiece take to the stage at Baselworld 2012: the new
PanoReserve presents a stylish and sophisticated interpretation of the signature asymmetric Pano
dial visuals. A red gold edition with a silver dial takes optimal advantage of the larger case and
slimmer bezel to unveil the strictly minimalist approach.

The off-centre hour/minute display features faceted red gold hands and applied red gold hour
indexes framing a finely drawn subsidiary seconds dial. Glashütte Original’s characteristic
Panorama Date display takes its place on the warm silver dial just below 4 o’clock as the
connoisseur’s eye is drawn to the elegant, stripped-down power reserve display. The Panorama
Date and power reserve are labeled in German, a subtle indication of the Saxon manufactory’s role
as rightful heir to more than 165 years of fine mechanical watchmaking in Glashütte.

Two PanoReserves present the new visuals framed in polished and satin brushed stainless steel.
One features a warm silver dial with blued hands and applied hour indexes on the hour/minutes
dial, a black-on-white Panorama Date display and the simply compelling power reserve (Auf/Ab)
with blued steel indicator. The second variation in stainless steel presents a grey ruthenium dial
with white gold hands, applied nickel hour indexes and an impressive white-on-grey Panorama
Date below the power reserve.

The heart of the PanoReserve is the manually wound 48-jewel Calibre 65-01 with 42-hour power
reserve. Chief among the attractions visible through the sapphire case back are the duplex swanneck
fine adjustment, hand-engraved balance cock, screw balance and the traditional Glashütte
three-quarter plate with Glashütte ribbing, screw-mounted gold chatons, and blued steel screws.
The new PanoReserves are fitted with either black or brown Louisiana alligator straps; colours and
finish vary with the models.
