Definitely the „regular“ one.
With its Ship Chronometer design.
One complaint I have with the Regulator version is that on a real Regulator dial the the seconds display is on the top end of the dial for a reason, but on most wrist watch Regulator dials it is on the bottom (also for a reason). But it feels like cutting the corner.
The other thing that disturbs me with the Senator Regulator is that the dial layout reminds me too much of the overall layout of a 7750 chronograph. A movement that is lightyears away from a G.O. Cal. 58.
The Chronometer was born inspired by and as an hommage to the Ships Chronometers built in Glashütte for many decades. The Regulator always felt like a spinoff inspired by Marketing. I heard that it was/is a commercial success. Something not to be ignored lightly. But the real thing is this: 
Some Glashutte Original which are dear to my heart, but not in my collection, not yet.
Senator Chronometer, for its manual winding movement and because it is a chronometer. The Cosmopolite in steel, for the original way its complication is displayed: The PanoGraph, but in white metal, or even better, the PanoRetroGraph, for its movement and...
GO shows a lot of originality
Besides those you mentioned, I was always intrigued by the PanoMaticCounter, but there must be few people who have a need for the complication and a large enough wrist. The Senator Diary is also interesting to me, but a near miss -- I put this in the cate...
So true, regarding the Diary!
I love the complication, but the design is among the least compelling from GO to my eye. I wish they'd consider a re-design with a more elegant and proportional dial. Lord knows, they have the capacity to do it.
Here's what I found floating around on the 'net:

Actually, I was mistaken - the photos above illustrate the SS version. My bad! (Corrected.)
The WG, which I prefer, has a gray (ruthenium?) dial. Photo credit: TheWatchBang In all cases, I'm bothered by the protruding large crowns and pushers, and by the layout of the alarm-setting indicators on the dial, though I can't articulate why. In this r...
Thanks for posting these - we apparently have similar tastes.
I went for the Cosmopolite, but the Senator Chronometer (rose gold) and the PanoInverse XL ruthenium dial have long tempted me. Funny, meanwhile, that you speak of originality. I happen to agree, but I keenly remember the day when the hue and cry was that...

Superb list.
The PanoRetroGraph is truly unique, but sadly doesn't get much recognition (and seems to be now largely forgotten). And the Senator Chronometer has lots of charm - not to mention its innovative reset and 'minute detent' functionality that is perfectly in ...
Yes, that is the WG version. Below is a picture of the platinum one.
I like the blued hands and the 'guilloche' in the central dial (not sure if stamped or engine-turned). The peripheral engraving around the dial is a bit much, though. The dial on the WG version is simpler but cleaner. ...
Definitely!
Panograph has a complex movement, but PanoRetroGraph makes it seem relatively simple in comparison. Based on pictures, the finishing also appears to be a little better overall in PanoRetroGraph (e.g. the way the bridges are cut to create a few sharper edg...
Interesting point about the dial color as well.
I had only ever seen white/silver dial PanoRetroGraphs, but apparently the RG version was offered with a black dial as well. Don't know whether a black-dialed variant in WG or platinum exists.
Ahhh, the movement of the PanoRetroGraph is the reason for that I never seriously considered the a PanoGraph
The huge difference on the price tag was never huge enough to make me forget about the PanoRetrograph. Second best sonetimes is not good enough
My sentiment exactly.
PanoGraph is a great watch on its own with more functionality than most peers (fly-back chrono with the retrograde minute counter, plus the G.O. big date). But ah, the knowledge that PanoRetroGraph exists...
That it does. And if we were to take this a step further, I think the Cal 60 in PanoRetroGraph stands its ground in most any comparison,
including against G.O.'s more illustrious neighbor. In terms of technical quality and finishing of the movement, that is.
39.4mm case diameter, 19mm lug width
No wonder that it appears a bit chunky. The massive horological content needs to go somewhere. It could certainly have more elegant proportions if it had a 41 or 42mm case. It seems that in the 90ies G.O. still stuck to the „small is cool“ approach. But I...
I did not say that watches cannot be elegant.
The Senator Chronometer e.g. has very nich proportions. But I would say many Glashütte watches follow a more sober approach to design. Some call it „Teutonic“which maybe goes a little too far. But there is an interesting thought that I once read somewhere...
The top 2 are my favorite here!
I am going back and forth for my next major watch purchase.. GO PanoMatic Lunar- Blue or Silver dial VC Overseas 4500V- Blue or silver dial TT DSA- Euro or US-- This is a for sure but have to wait I think to find the right one.. Full set.. Quite a price d...
All lovely options
Go is amazing in a sense it has close to 10 models that are very different from each other and look amazing. Honestly I cant say that of many other brands which are 1 or 2 models brands. GO rocks
