Thoughts on the new Glaschutte Original 60's?
Curious what y'all think. I love that grey dial. And the tangerine.

I will say>>>>
I think we that grew up with these is probably not the right target group, some of us get enough shivers.
But I think the idea with these is quite ok, it needed somebody who sticks his jowl out and not only produces mainstream watches. I am absolutely convinced that there are people that like these watches, but it is not my cup of tea.

I prefer the 70's models, much nicer IMHO, these are nice but strange in comparison with the 70's

I can't say that I love them but after getting my Spezichron with green dial I do understand where they are coming from. Actually that green would be a fun watch to own...

I don't like the case shape, and I'm guessing its a modular chronograph resulting in a thick case as well. Not to speak of the insane dials.

Love the colours, but the rest is just dreadful looking. Don’t know why they just didn’t do the regular round case in this style, to match with the same colourful dials they did on the standard 60s model. |

I have similar thoughts as Jocke, it is probably a bit too much for me personally but I really appreciate what GO are doing with this.
If it sings to you, go for it! |

The blue looks ok, but most of the rest look like they fell into a lava lamp. But if people like them, please buy them. Call me a curmudgeon, but I like black and white faces.

I think they're cool looking...although I would never buy or wear one.

I am not fond of that styling but a very conversation piece

I like the watch. I would love to find one in the second hand market. The red is the one for me.

Love the vibrant/cool colors but the model is not the type I gravitate to aesthetically. No doubt it will be a hit with some/many though and that's nice . . . .

A big miss for me but certainly trying to differentiate themselves from their neighbor in Glashutte with this one.

For some reason I get the feeling they will look amazing in the steel.
