Glashutte New Model Introduction
 
Not sure what I think of the new annual limited addition seventies that was introduced today. I generally like Pandas but the limited addition Seventies were generally known for the funky dial colors. I do like that they now come with the bracelet and rubber strap.

Curious for everybody’s thoughts.

Huge GO fan and 70s owner (fab green). I like the red pops on this edition a lot and I like the white dial too. Less sure about the black subdials. End of the day it’s cool but not for me.

I have the bracelet and rubber strap and also the suede strap. It’s such a tall and top heavy watch I don’t find it wears that well on the rubber or leather and I really only use the bracelet. And I have a large (8.25”) wrist.

Love my PanoMaticLunar. Admire the SeaQ. This model, hard no.

Not sure how this release was worthy of a teaser

sinkholeninja 1 August 2025 06:35 PM

Personally not a fan of this case shape, or dial configuration, so it's a no from me...but who cares!

Another color variation...yawn.

I like it but would never pay the price asked at retail. I prefer the colored dial versions and some of the leather straps. For GO the secondary market is your friend.

I’ve always liked t(e look of them, and I have yet to see them in person.

I’m curious to know how thick they are.

According to their site (https://www.glashuette-original.com/...7-02-18-02-70/) they are 14.10mm tall. A bit too thicc for me, but I like the watch nonetheless.

Thank you for that :thumbsup:

I too have a preference for slightly thinner wearing watches. That said, I’d still like to see one in person. Depending on the caseback shape, it might work out ok:2:

Thanks for sharing OP. The GO Seventies is a great line. Thick for sure but at the same time quite wearable.

Very much like this new release, but prefer the simpler layout of my Panorama Date.

I love it. I’ve been thinking about GO vs Omega and leaning towards GO.

Guppydriver 2 August 2025 11:07 PM

Really cool integrated that gets lost in the shuffle of so many new releases.

It has serious wrist presence. I love the window hour counter as you can start the chrono at one of the 12 o clocks and pretty much have a dual time indication.

Kudos to GO for including 2 straps. This should be SOP at this price level.

Indeed a thicc boi

Wearing mine right now and it’s at the upper limit of what works on my 8.25” wrist.

Be careful it looks your spring bar is coming out!

milgaussSD43 3 August 2025 06:05 AM

lol good eye!
It was loose, just pushed back in !

If there’s one weaker “link” in this piece it’s the pin and tube system in the bracelet attachment bar that I don’t love. Makes swapping bracelet to strap not as easy as I’d like

Agree that including the two straps is great, but unfortunately it is not a quick change system. Would have been awesome if they incorporated that. Especially with a white dial. The strap choices would have been limitless.

I would definitely not mind having one in my collection.

1William 3 August 2025 10:49 PM

Nice green dial.

It looks like they changed the system on this watch. Here are some pics from another forum.

Not quite a quick change, but it looks like it might be easier to switch out the bracelet on this model?

I’m seriously considering switching out my green for this model

milgaussSD43 4 August 2025 03:06 PM

Oh that does look like a quick detach. Maybe just pop off w a fingernail or delrin/plastic blade? Def may be an improvement over what I have.

FeelingTheBlues 4 August 2025 11:40 PM

Not a fan of the case myself, can’t say I love the dial layout either.

I suppose it’s a matter of tastes.

milgaussSD43 9 August 2025 01:07 AM

Confirmed by GO today - the new bracelet is NOT a quick release, so tools are needed to swap from bracelet to rubber, just as w the current design. Also the clasp is a bit updated but functions the same way.

Yeah, I didn’t think it was quick change, but I was hoping it would be easier than before and it looks like it will be.
Tools I can live with, but the friction pin system basically made it so I needed to go to a watchmaker to switch.
I’m hoping this will be an improvement in that regard.
