GLASHÜTTE ORIGINAL SeaQ REED GREEN

Dive into the great outdoors this Spring with GO’s handsome new SeaQ variant which is delivered in a lovely seasonal green tone – reed green to be precise.

I say keep it on topic, folks; why not seaweed green or sea algae; then again. Of course, kelp green that would have been perfect only GO want you to grab one of their new SeaQ Reed Greens and head into the reeds; 

well at least the countryside which is why the watch is casually perched on some sort of hiking boot in the lifestyle shot. This doesn’t explain the out-of-focus wrist-shot, though – hay fever and taken in mid sneeze? I digress; you came here to find out so much more about the new SeaQ Reed Green. 

The watch which will be initially launched in N. America and later made available Worldwide this May is based on the 39.5mm in diameter model and is in Stainless with a polished and satin-brushed finish. And despite all of its trail walking, hiking and reed wading (picnicking?) aspirations, it like any SeaQ has undergone a slew of rigorous tests in order to be certificated as a professional diver’s watch. Which it has done in compliance with DIN 8306 and ISO 6425 standards for diver’s watches and so meets both German and international standards of quality.

Water-resistant to 200 meters and powered by GO’s 39-11 automatic manufacture movement, the watch boasts a Reed Green ceramic bezel inlay as well as dial. 

It also comes as most SeaQs do with a choice of rubber, textile or steel strap/bracelet options.

MSRP in the US is from 9’000USD (rubber) or 10’200USD (steel; however I think it looks absolutely perfect (a bit small if we’re honest) but still very nice on the textile strap. 

But what do you think?

  1. The numbers on the dial are too Big and furthermore unnecessary on a diver watch. In my mind the dial is missed
