Glashütte Original SeaQ Chronograph

Glashütte Original SeaQ Chronograph

If you want a luxury watch that can swim, sprint, and look sharp at dinner, the SeaQ Chronograph is that rare multi-hyphenate. It sits confidently within Glashütte Original sports watch portfolio as the diver’s chronograph, pairing real tool credentials with the brand’s refined German watchmaking touch. Think crisp edges, rich finishing, and a dial that rewards a second look.

The identity is pure SeaQ, just dialed up. A 43.2 mm stainless steel case brings presence without shouting. The unidirectional rotating bezel uses a ceramic insert for durability, the sapphire crystal keeps things clear, and the screw-down crown and screw-down pushers reinforce purpose. You get 300 meters, 30 bar, of water resistance and ISO 6425 alignment, so this is not a poolside prop. Legibility is big here, with luminescent markings and Super-LumiNova that pop on a galvanic blue dial with a sunray finish. It is a dive watch at heart, a chronograph when you want it, and a daily driver when you need it.

Inside the case, why it matters

GO powers the model with the in-house Calibre 37-23, an automatic movement focused on precision and clean operation. A column wheel handles engagement, the flyback function lets you reset and restart timing on the fly, and a silicon balance spring adds modern stability. The spec sheet reads like a flex, 70-hour power reserve, 5 Hz frequency, 36,000 vph. Translation, it is built to track time with authority while giving you real autonomy on the wrist.

Design options and straps

The SeaQ Chronograph leans into a cohesive aesthetic across the collection, anchored by that galvanic blue dial and luminous layout. Case work stays in stainless steel for a balanced mix of rugged and refined. You can tune the vibe with a stainless steel bracelet, a rubber strap, or a synthetic fabric strap, each changing the mood from boardroom to breakwater. The bracelet feels the most elevated, the fabric strap reads sportiest, and the rubber hits a confident middle ground.

Positioning and what drives price

Within GO’s sports lineup, the SeaQ Chronograph sits above the three-hand SeaQ thanks to the in-house chronograph architecture, ceramic bezel insert, and the overall complexity of finishing. Pricing typically scales with the chosen attachment, the stainless steel bracelet carries a premium over rubber or synthetic fabric, and limited color executions tend to draw strong interest among collectors. If you want a diver’s chronograph that feels considered rather than crowded, this is the SeaQ to know.
