To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the distinctive Belisar Chronograph case design, UNION GLASHÜTTE presents a limited edition that impresses with its exceptional design and striking color scheme. The new Belisar Chronograph Limited Edition Speedster 2025 is inspired by a rare Italian rally road car from the 1980s – an automotive original that embodies performance, style, and technical innovation.
The 1980s are considered the golden age of the Italian automotive industry: numerous high-performance versions of rally cars participated in international competitions and shaped the roadscape with distinctive cockpits that, for the first time, combined digital elements with classic analog displays. This very cockpit served as the design template for the dial and rubber strap of the new Speedster edition.
The combination of matte blue-gray and vibrant yellow gives the watch a modern, sporty, yet elegant look. The color choice is deliberately unconventional – it represents dynamism and individuality. Yellow Arabic numerals, a central crosshair, and the tachymeter scale underscore the model’s racing character. The hands are finished in PVD black, creating a striking contrast. Instead of traditional numbering, the dial displays second intervals – a subtle nod to the watch’s stylistic inspiration.
The gray-blue, textured rubber strap echoes the dial color and its texture is reminiscent of Italian dashboard surfaces. The model is complemented by an interchangeable leather strap, offering the wearer additional styling options.
For the first time, UNION GLASHÜTTE is not using a German vehicle as the inspiration for its Speedster series, but rather an iconic Italian design – a bold move that is sure to set collectors‘ hearts racing. The watch is strictly limited worldwide and comes in an exclusive limited edition box with an interchangeable strap.
This timepiece is not only visually stunning, but also boasts top-of-the-line technology: The UNG-27.S1 movement with silicon balance spring offers a 65-hour power reserve. Excellent legibility and the combination of matte and polished elements make the Belisar Chronograph Limited Edition Speedster 2025 a true collector’s item.
