Compliments for my optician, Nicolas
..as I have to wear glasses!
BTW, is your Senator Navigator still available - Icould not find it on the GO website?
There are the PC, the chronograph, a panorama date versions only. The pure automatic has a very different dial design, yours - IMO - is way more effective.
BTW, what is the use of the pusher at 8 o´clock?
Best regards,

G O photo contest! Three winners will be selected . . .
. . . from entries posted until December 31st, and each winner will receive a copy of . . . . . . courtesy of Our Man in Glashütte. The rules are simple: the photo must be of a Glashütte Original watch. Other than that, anything goes. Start posting in thi...
What about....
.... a consolation prize for the person who spends more time than the 3 prize winners combined but still produces the worst photo? I like my chances for that one.
my only GO ...
... but on my wrist every weekend since it came back from service with its new glass back: Best Andreas...
That's an interesting remark, Andreas . . .
. . . I thought that the sapphire back exchange period ended last year. Did you ask G O to switch the back recently? Cordially, Art
that is correct ...
... got it exchanged last December, but as I wrote it has been my regular weekend watch since! Best Andreas
Sorry, crabman - ya gotta tough it out and hope that . . .
. . . the judge sees merit in your submission. I'm reminded of President Reagan's story about the boy and the pony ;-) . . . cordially, Art
Senator Week
Thanks for the nice gesture - Art & GO. My attempt with my favourite GO - the Senator Week, I am attracted by its clean and understated dial: Goh...
Why not?
Here's the latest - a very sporty everyday watch. And one of the most technologically advanced pieces made in Glashütte, the 2005 Watch of the Year:...
Wonderful, Ray! One little favor, if I may . . .
. . . please drop one of the four photos from consideration, and let me know which by private e-mail. I really hadn't considered the possibility of multiple entries, so I've just added a second rule limiting the contribution to three photos. Thanks much, ...
I do like to be one of the winners ......
Please accept my participation with these pictures...
Nice photos...
I like that box of chocolates! Also like the Faber Castell pencil set; wished I had the ebony wood as I have the brown wood.
Among my favorite for pencils...
I'm an avid Montblanc Fountain Pen lover. So my loyalty does unfortunately lie with Montblanc. The Graaf vonFaber-Castell fountain pens have rather firm nibs compared to Montblanc's soft nibs. I am a big fan of Graaf vonFaber-Castell pencils, I would love...
The pen of the year
2009, from Graf von Faber-Castell is a masterpiece. Had it for 6 weeks now and I like it better and better. The next in line will be a Tibaldi for Bentley fountain pen and perhaps a MB Ingrid Bergman for the wife With your passion for MB – you should chec...
Veering away from watches to pens is quite alright, Jarle . . .
. . . as for myself, I do appreciate fountain pens, but fortunately for my pocketbook and my sanity, I'm entirely satisfied with my modest Sailor . . . cordially, Art
Nice pictures
Hi Jarle/Leica As a former Leica Collector (had to sell my collection when I purchased my first house, had serial No 1158.. which I should never have sold) do I really like your pictures. For me you are the winner BR Hans
Thanks hans_jorgen1968
You are to kind J but I really appreciate your nice comment Btw - I do like Leica Cameras & lenses a lot – but I’m a bit sorry that my new M9 has to go back to Solms for focus issues. Just want to use it during the holiday before sending it back Happy hol...
Leica rules
Hi Jarle I had also a focus problem on a M4 and a M6. Mainly when using the 50mm/1,4 Summilux lens. Arh I miss my Leicas. I am actually trying to find a srew mount Leica 1 or the fixed with a Elmar. Anyway. Merry Christmas to you and you BR Hans
Hmmm . . . it never occurred to me that anyone would post . . .
. . . so many. Silly me - I should've known the enthusiasm of our forum members! Please select your three favorites, Jarle, and let me know which they are by private e-mail; I'll pass your final selections to our judge. Amazed in a very pleasant way, Art
I don't mind the over-enthusiasm ...
All photos are much appreciated by me. Very nice. Andrew
GOrgeous shot, Nicolas!
The colors, the composition, the watch and the "GO" letters which "accidentally" appear on one of the roof tiles - you would be my favorite so far, but I assume, you would be easily get a copy on your own, wouldn´t you? Whatsoever - a magnificent photo! a...
What's better than a GO Roof for a GO Watch? :)))
Eagle eye, my friend. Thanks for the nice words, my friend. Best, Nicolas

Well, anaesdoc
Mine was a LE of 100 pieces for Rimowa, so it is normal you don't find it in the G.O catalogue. The pusher is used to reset the seond hand to zero. Best, my friend. Nicolas
You´re faster than a lightning, Nicolas!
Thanks for your explanation at that speed. I wonder why a suitcase manufacturer has LE done and how he sells it. (Do you get one if you buy 10 suitcases or more?) Again, congrats on this lovely watch of yours! anaesdoc
No, anaesdoc, the suitcase was given to me, with the watch.
As it is part of the packaging on this special GO Senator Navigator. Here are two pics ( Courtesy G.O ) : Best, Nicolas...
Excellent idea, Patrick..I'll just have to wait till 3006,
But it is not a problem for Vlad Dracul, as Eternity is his Kingdom... Best, Vlad.
I have no merit, as the light does it all. Thanks!
Your pics are much more interesting, IMO. Best, Nicolas
NEWS FLASH! Our Purists Photography and Camera Equipment moderator . . .
. . . Kelvin Tan has agreed to judge our contest. Please visit his Photography forum for a glimpse at his abilities with a lens: www.network54.com Thanks very much, Kelvin - much appreciated! Collegially, Art
Rule #2: please limit yourself to three photos . . .
. . . enthusiasm is wonderful, but please, let's make the contest manageable for our Judge ;-) . . . cordially, Art
A dilettante´s attempt
Now there is even a professional photographer on board to judge the contest... Nevertheless, does "dilettare" not mean "to play"? So here´s my playing: At least he is giving my a gentle, forgiving smile. Best regards and thanks for setting up this contest...
Mine is too far off...
but it doesn't hurt to share a GO photo with fellow aficionado!!...
This is a special edition, isn't it? . . .
. . . my guess is that this is one of fifty made for Sincere circa 2004 . . . cordially, Art
Senator Chronometer
I have long been an admirer of Glashütte Original watches. As a movement junky, who wouldn’t be impressed with German engineering prowess and the brand’s history? The planetary gears provide just the right degree of visual interest in the three-quarter pl...
I wouldn't dream of influencing our esteemed Judge . . .
. . . but that's a winner in my book! Cordially, Art
Thanks …
Thanks Art, I need to get a few more pixels in my printer, or perhaps one of those fancy ‘printers’ that builds up a three-dimensional copy of the object. Actually I sized the printed watch at exactly 42mm. How does it look on my wrist? ItR...
Until I opened my email yesterday I assumed I would not have an entry.
Since we are allowed 3 shots I will only burn one here. Purist friends, I did not even remove the watch from the pillow before snapping this shot to share here on the good Dr. No's fabulous forum. In fact, I am rather rushed at the moment and will not eve...
Wow ...
Huge congratulations and thanks for sharing the emotion of the arrival. So much horological depth in this piece. Simple on the surface, but very useful functions and wonderful engineering. Look forward to seeing more. Andrew
It is a beauty.....
I love the blued hands, the layout of the dial, and the functionality the watch possesses. It is truly a remarkable piece, arguably one of GO's best to date. Wear it in good health! Dave
Remember Alexander Korda's "The Third Man" from 1949? . . .
. . . well, Michael, you're the G O forum's Third Man of December '09! And you've been playing coy with us for the last few weeks, you rascal . . . for that, you have been sentenced to posting a photo of the Senator Chronometer at least once a month until...
Thanks Nico, Andrew, David, and Art. Truth is
I have not been coy at all! Yes, I want wanted this piece and committed to my AD from the beginning. I was originally told October, then November. Then the official rollout in which only "select" ADs would have the watch, and I would have to wait until Ja...
What is important is that YOU finally got yours, in time!
Can't wait for your pics, Michael! Enjoy it as it deserves. Very Best, my dear friend. Nicolas

Perfect backdrop, Fernando . . .
. . . too bad I'm not the judge - you'd get extra points from me!
Look what Santa brought....
Two vinitage Glashütte Glashütte Original 17 rubis, age around 1960 Glashütte Spezmatik cal 75, 26 rubis, age 1978. Happy new year! [URL=http://forumbilder.se] [/URL] [URL=http://forumbilder.se] [/URL]...
Ok, I start with this one..........
then I will see if I can come up with some more before the deadline....
Thank You, Art
It is indeed a great piece. That ceramic case is amazing and better yet, the tang buckle is also made with ceramic!

My entry, part of the credit goes to my daughter for the
black and white appearance of a vintage Glashutte marine chronometer clock. Thanks for watching and wishing you all a Happy Year of 2010! Zhiming...
That's a truly brilliant composition, Zhiming . . .
. . . and for those that aren't aware, the b & w background is a vintage Glashütte marine chronometer that G O offered in years past. I'm so glad that Kelvin accepted the responsibility of judging the contest as there are so many outstanding photos. Happy...
Powerful images as always, Jocke . . .
. . . good luck to you, my friend ;-) . . . cordially, Art
My single try
I will try something completely different. This was a quick shot that I took with the VGA camera of my cell phone directly after opening my eyes in a hotel room. It had been a great night of dining and dancing. (Please do not ask about the little bear as ...
Adorable! Let's see if this tickles Kelvin's fancy . . .
. . . as much as it does mine. The juxtaposition of a teddy bear and a tool watch should clash, but you made it work . . . most impressive. Warmest regards, Art
I decided to go with something a little different.
I promised Art i would try my hand at this so here is my contribution such as it is.......
