Ok, fans - confession time: who's thinking . . .
. . . of acquiring one of the many standout G O introductions from Basel? Not that you need any prompting, but here are some of the more intriguing candidates, starting with the Senator Sixties Square Chronograph . . .
. . . the Meißen Tourbillon . . .
. . . ceramic Senator perpetual calendar . . .
. . . and Senator Chronometer:
I've heard from a few Chronometer fans . . . anyone else pondering one of these, or any other, offerings? Cordially, Art

Chronometer
Art, I think the Senator Chronometer is just a marvelous offering. Hits all the right buttons for me: design heritage, dial layout, movement quality, technological innovation and performance.... My feelings? "Absolutely love and want to own"? - Sure! "Thi...
Chronometer too, please
Hi Tom, I feel like you in all aspects. I might add, that I find it more and more difficult to justify further watch acqusitions as the number of my watches has already exceeded the limits of practical wearing opportunities by far. So the threshold is ris...
That ceramic Senator Perpetual is looking...
pretty good to me. I am not sure just where to put it on my list. tempusfugit
Well, it might be right up your alley, considering your . . .
. . . well-established affection for black dial G O perpetuals that I happen to share ;-) . . . cordially, Art
Senator Sixties still is of high interest to me...
...but in the voluptuous round case. Still -- the square Sixties is very attractive! GO had such a good showing this year! Cheers! Daos
Shaped cases aren't for everyone, I suppose, Daos, but . . .
. . . try one on, anyways; unlike many designs from G O, this one has a presence that immediately catches the eye, even though it's true to form in detail with the usual clarity and purposefulness their designs are imbued with . . . cordially, Art
A fellow Purist introduced me to the "Wishlist" folder...
A folder on the hard drive specifically for watches that one would certainly acquire when able. Watches within reach, and not just the ones that would be nice to own, but pieces that you see as lasting for a long time in the collection. The WG Senator Chr...
Sixities Square Chrono
I have been waiting to see the 60's Chrono. It's the one watch that captivated me from Basel. I really like the distinctive cushion case design. I am only hoping it will fit and be comfortable on my wrist. The Chronometer is a distant second. While I tend...
Ah, two more votes for the Sixties Square . . .
. . . which has a remarkable presence on the wrist . . . . . . thanks to it's cushion-case design that is at once square without a hint of edginess . . ....
lusting for a WG Senator Chronometer also ...
.... waiting to see one in the metal to see whether it is too big for me. Otherwise, hits all the right notes for me ... Best Andreas
In that case, here's a photo of the rose gold version draped . . .
. . . over my slender wrist: I have to admit that my fascination for the watch would allow me to overcome any reservations regarding it's size . . . cordially, Art...
great one
really....i would get this one and the meissen tourbillon...which is probably one of the most beautiful ever...
I see great improvement in GO
Especially, the case, GO has really made effort to improve it. From the pieces that I saw recently, they are miles different from the pieces offered to me some years ago. GO is definitely in my list now. Regards Ling
Unfortunately ...
Senator perpetual calendar and Senator Chronometer look both too big on my wrist :-( Have seen both in the metal and they are very nice. Oliver
Having a break
I am taking a time out from getting new watches as I already had my share this year (one is in the box and another one will be delivered sometime near the end of the year). On the list for the future is a Reverso and (something slightly different) a Sattl...
Sixties, and Chronometer are my 2 absolute fav G.O pieces,
This Year. A very nice and difficult to resist Retro Look... But I'm still struggling with the platinum rattrapante...Should I stay or should I go, as Joe Strummer used to sing... Best, Nicolas
Well, Art...Just wondering
On what kind of GO I should GO... Best, my friend. Nicolas
Well, you already have the Navigator . . .
. . . and a very special one at that, so I would suggest trying on something completely different . . . . . . to get a taste for what G O does best: simple, austere designs with gorgeous hand-winding movements, all at a very reasonable price . . . devilis...
Both....
the chronometer and the ceramic are gorgeous.... I would like to see them in metal first Cheers
