Glashutte Original Sport Evolution Perpetual Calendar

Luxois | 04.13.08 | 04:55 PM

Saxon manufactory Glashutte Original is now introducing a truly successful version of the Sport Evolution line to the market in the shape of the newest model in this successful series. The Sport Evolution Perpetual Calendar skillfully joins two worlds to become one: thus, the robust timekeeper meets the traditional horological complication, combining modern technical innovation with design. This combination of apparent opposites within the Sport Evolution line lends the watch an exceptionally dynamic appearance, as well as a set of interesting functions.

One look at the sporty timekeeper is enough to see that it is all about the unstoppable aspect of time. The striking Sport Evolution Perpetual Calendar announces its ambitions in a monumental case characterized by dynamic robustness 42.5 mm in diameter and 14.6 mm in height.

The appearance of the black galvanized dial is striking in its clean structure. Thus, the day of the week and the month are displayed in two small windows located at 10 and 2 o'clock respectively. The leap year is modestly displayed in a round window underneath the company's logo at 12 o'clock.

Glashutte Original's generously designed panorama date clearly stands out from the black background at 4 o'clock, while the current moon phase is illustrated by a silver-colored moon disk.

The course of the individual months is shown by polished silver hour markers. The markers inlaid with SuperLumiNova, a luminous substance, located at the 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock positions guarantee improved legibility, and the centrally positioned sweep hands provide information on the hour and minute, the visuals of which are strengthened by luminous substance.

The sweep seconds hand with its red tip gently glides across the minute scale, which shows the precise course of time in five-second intervals and bright red counters.

Twenty-four city names printed on the black bezel symbolically represent the various time zones of our planet. They also offer an especially practical extra for any frequent traveler: the function of a world time watch.

Whether Berlin, New York, or Rio de Janeiro, a simple flick of the wrist makes sure that the differences between the individual time zones are no longer a problem. Once the rotating bezel is manually put to the correct position - illustrating the current destination at the position of the hour hand - the difference between home time and the current local time can be clearly read.

The two city rings on the bezel show whether the current local time is ahead of home time (outer ring) or behind (inner ring).

The heart of the Sport Evolution Perpetual Calendar is automatic manufacture Caliber 39-57, which guarantees an absolutely precise rate.

A concave sapphire crystal case back is shaped to fit the wrist of the wearer. Furthermore, it allows a view of characteristic movement elements such as the swan-neck fine adjustment, the skeletonized rotor, and three-quarter plate, and all of this at a water-resistance of 10 ATM.

this flawlessly crafted four-link metal bracelet fits the wrist circumference of its wearer perfectly. Adjusting the individual length of the bracelet using the patented, innovative closing and adjusting mechanism designed just for Glashutte Original is easy:

The integrated double G logo functions as both the clasp's button and the activator for the fine adjustment mechanism, which can be adjusted a total of eight millimeters in eight steps, making it supremely comfortable.

The elements are screwed to one another with no room for interplay between them so that they are much more stable than links joined by pins.

The double security mechanism with two buttons on either side hinders an accidental opening of the clasp.

The dynamic, multifaceted design of this watch is continued in the red seam of the stepped Trieste strap.

This striking timepiece is also available on a rubber strap or a specially designed stainless steel bracelet.
