foverstaGlashütte Original nicely brings an end to this year with the presentation of the Senator Tourbillon Edition Alfred Helwig. It is therefore not a brand new watch but a declination of an existing model. I really like the first version, dating from the year 2013. The Senator Tourbillon stages two complications perfectly mastered by the manufacture from Saxony: the flying tourbillon which occupies the lower area of ​​the dial and the large date, housed in the upper zone...">Story

Jocke - Bad SantaAfter a few visits at Baselworld I got my eyes wide open for a company named Glashütte Original this was in 2005. We was invited to the company and they treat us as the stars we are so we feel at home from day one. Just two regular guys that love watches are not accustomed to this attention, rather used to hearing: Is it genuine? When I saw the Sport Evolution on Trieste strap for the first time so did I know now is it just a matter of time. So some time after we hit 2006 was it a fact, my first Glashütte .....">Story

Jocke - Bad SantaI guess I've been bad this year, there was nothing from the Santa. So I have to do something about it and get myself at least something that I appreciate. So I went for a hunt in Stockholm and stop by at my friend Roger's Watch Shop. He tell me, just look around and see if you find something that you like...">Story

KMIIIn 1996 Union Uhrenfabrik GmbH has been founded to form an entry level brand to Glashütte Original, with a collection of watches based either around the same cases as GO with ETA based movements, or alternatively with GO related movements with lower levels of decoration. In their heyday prior to 2008 they have produced some interesting watches, all the way up to tourbillons and perpetual calendars. In March 2008 the new range has been presented, which exclusively relied on ETA based movements and consequently ... ...">Story

stromerAs you may remember from this or this heads up there is currently a special exhibition going on at the German Watch Musuem: Glashütte on Board . It is about the recent 130 years of building Marine Chronometers in Glashütte. Marine Chronometers attract me in a special way and so I had a good excuse to go again to the little town that is so dear to me. They have set a nice atmosphere for the exhibition...">Story

Ornatus-Mundi'Time' - that is another important common denominator uniting both watchmaking and music. It is just only consequent that watch manufacturer Glashütte Original awards the 13th Glashütte Original MusicFestivalAward to Andris Nelsons , conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra (and from 2017 on much closer to the manufacture, as Kapellmeister of the Gewandhaus Orchestra Leipzig ). GO's own communication on the award is found here . During the Dresden Music Festival 2016 , under the motto of 'Time for Music' .....">Story

watchestoloveGot this watch a while back, but I'll share some photos here now. Personally I think Glashutte Original makes watches of exceptional value, given the meticulous dial work and movement decoration. The movement finish is not quite Lange level, but very close nonetheless. The best part is GO makes these beauties in stainless steel, which makes them much more accessible to 'normal' folks...">Story

tempocalypseI realise I hadn't contributed any pictures here in some months! I thought I would post some pictures of the Panograph I've taken over this time. I used the focus stacking method of combining several pictures to achieve this deep focus view of the entire Panograph caliber. You can see the full unscaled image here too: The Saxon style of movement decoration with blued screws and chatons make for quite colourful movements. But the beauty of the Panograph shows even in black and white...">Story
