Glashütte Original Original SeaQ Panorama Date 43mm Mens Watch
Ref. 1-36-13-03-90-33
Sits in Glashütte Original’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Glashütte Original watches we list, which start at £6,300.
Price range £6,300 to £34,700 across 33 Glashütte Original watches in stock.The SeaQ's diver credentials are genuine — 300 metres rated, unidirectional ceramic bezel, rubber strap with a folding clasp in 18-carat red gold — but the movement inside belongs to a different conversation entirely. Calibre 36-13 is a full manufactory automatic built in Glashütte, carrying the three-quarter plate and swan-neck spring regulator that define the house's watchmaking identity, an anti-magnetic silicon hairspring, and a 100-hour power reserve from a single barrel. Fitting that calibre into a dive watch is an unusual decision, and an honest one: the skeletonised rotor with its 21-carat gold oscillation weight is visible through the caseback whether the watch has just surfaced or is sitting at a dinner table. At 43.2mm across and 15.65mm deep, it wears with real presence and sits proud of the wrist rather than against it — not unusual for a rated diver, but the solid red gold case and the sunray-finished black galvanic dial pull it a long way from the tool-watch tradition it nominally inhabits. The case sides are vertically satin-brushed, the contours polished, and that combination against the deep black ceramic bezel inlay reads as considered rather than accidental. The 51.5mm lug-to-lug span means smaller wrists will find it long; on the right arm, the structured rubber strap keeps it planted without the formality the case might otherwise demand.

Learn more about Glashütte Original
Glashütte Original is the direct corporate descendant of the East German state watchmaking industry. When the Soviet administration expropriated Glashütte's private manufacturers after the Second World War — A. Lange & Söhne among them — it consolidated them into a single enterprise, VEB Glashütter Uhrenbetriebe, which produced watches for the Eastern Bloc for four decades.
After reunification the enterprise was privatised, and in 1994 it took the name Glashütte Original. It therefore inherits both the archives and the tooling of the pre-war houses and the industrial capacity built under the GDR.
That inheritance shows in vertical integration unusual even at the high end. The company makes its own movements, and its own dials, through the Pforzheim dial manufactory it acquired in 2006 — a capability most houses buy in.
The house signatures are German: three-quarter plates, duplex swan-neck fine adjustment, hand-engraved balance cocks, and skeletonised rotors in double-G form. The Panorama Date, a large date display where both discs sit on one plane so no dividing line interrupts the numerals, is its most distinctive complication and a deliberate improvement on the standard big-date module.
The Senator, Sixties, and Seventies collections cover classical and retro-industrial ground respectively. Swatch Group acquired the company in 2000.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 300m it is rated for swimming, snorkelling and recreational diving.
Will the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Does it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
What size strap does it take?
21mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 51.5mm, which suits wrists from roughly 17.5cm (7 inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.

Who are Goldsmiths?
