Quick TakeThis Sixties 1-39-52-04-02-04 isn't just another pretty face – it's a throwback with serious horological muscle. It’s the kind of watch that whispers "I know my stuff" without having to shout. With its sleek stainless steel case and that killer black dial, it's like the strong, silent type of the watch world. It’s got that vintage vibe nailed down, but open it up and you’ve got the Calibre 39-52 ticking away with the precision of a metronome. The sapphire crystal is your window into this miniature world of gears and springs, all working in perfect harmony. And let’s not forget the Louisiana Alligator strap – because even a watch this cool needs a touch of class. The automatic movement, the meticulous detail, the old-school charm – it all adds up to a wrist companion that’s as smart as it is stylish. This timepiece has got character, the soul of a classic with the guts of a modern marvel.

DescriptionThis Glashütte Original Sixties model, reference 1-39-52-04-02-04, presents a study in understated elegance and precision engineering. Encased in stainless steel, the watch's housing measures 39.00 mm in diameter and 9.40 mm in height, offering a sleek yet substantial presence on the wrist. The case accommodates a domed, galvanized black dial, which is meticulously finished with a fine matte texture. Milled markers complement printed scales, while luminous dots on the hour markers ensure readability under various lighting conditions. The dial is protected by a sapphire crystal, known for its scratch resistance and clarity. Powered by the in-house Calibre 39-52, this automatic movement is a testament to Glashütte Original's commitment to horological excellence. With a power reserve of 40 hours, plus or minus 5%, and operating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, equivalent to 4 Hz, the movement ensures reliable timekeeping. Its construction features a Glashütte three-quarter plate adorned with a stripe finish, a detail visible through the exhibition case back. The movement's swan-neck fine adjustment mechanism allows for precise regulation, while beveled edges and polished steel parts underscore the meticulous craftsmanship. The rotor, skeletonized with the brand's double-G symbol, incorporates a 21-carat gold oscillation weight, enhancing winding efficiency.

Functionality is streamlined to hours, minutes, and seconds, rendered with precision and displayed through centrally mounted hands. The watch's aesthetic is completed by a black Louisiana Alligator strap, measuring 19 mm in width at the end links and tapering to a clasp. This strap, with dimensions of 75 x 115 mm, provides a comfortable and secure fit. The watch is water-resistant up to 3 bar, making it suitable for everyday wear, though not intended for submersion or high-impact water activities. The careful selection of materials, combined with the sophisticated design and engineering of the Calibre 39-52, results in a timepiece that is both visually appealing and mechanically robust. This model exemplifies Glashütte Original's dedication to producing watches that embody both traditional craftsmanship and modern watchmaking technology.
