Glashütte Original PanoMaticInverse

The moon has been shaping mankind, our culture, and our thirst for knowledge since time immemorial. Even in ancient times, great thinkers would look to the heavens for answers about the cycles on earth. This curiosity planted the seed for modern-day astronomy and its close relation, horology – the science of measuring time. The pioneers in their field were always driven by the same ambition: To understand the mysterious forces that set our universe in motion. The new PanoLunarInverse, limited to just 200 pieces, seeks to give an answer to this big question on a small scale: An intricately crafted night sky in miniature provides the backdrop for a spectacular moon phase display, while the inverse design of the movement reveals the inner workings of the watch.

Curiosity and ingenuity have always been the driving force behind progress. It is as true for the scholars of old as it is for the creative minds in the Glashütte Original workshops today. The moon phase display occupies a special place in the traditions of the German watch manufactory. In their latest creation, the brand’s designers and engineers have completely reinterpreted this classic complication by placing it in the heart of an avant-garde timepiece that lends it a mystical aura.
