So outstanding Martin!!
Of course, I can just look at my own, but the time lapse video is super!!
Lately, we have had quite a renewed optimism for this watch. I had not posted on it in regularly until these past few months. But it has always been one of the best timepieces I have ever owned. I closely flirted with a platinum PanoRetrograph recently, but honestly would not wear that watch over this one (even if it is amazingly superb on its own).
For my tastes, this is the greatest Glashutte Original available. Now, if I could arrange a trade for the 13 piece edition platinum model with brushed caseband and desk chronometer, well...
Something special about the G.O. Senator Chronometer's movement
Turning around a Senator Chronometer you will immediately notice the large three quarter plate that is so typical for watches from Glashütte. But what really stands out here is the planetary gears that are coupled to the winding wheel on top of the main s...
Now you go to the next G.O. Boutique and order a Senator Chronometer.
And when I have counted from three to one you will wake up again Best regards, dear Alkiro, Martin
Martin and I do our best
to make sure you will get another Glashütte Original. We know you are weak so the best you can do is to visit a Glashütte Original Boutique so the terror will ends. LOL
No, no, never!
It is the watch that is calling for you, not us And of course a bottle..... Best , my dear friend, Martin
Thanks a lot, Jocke!
Yes, these gears make it a true G.O. It is that mix of real mechanics like these gears, the Protestant design, finish and the people that makes the brand for me. Best my friend, Martin
If I could there would be more than one
but I think this one would do just fine as only Cheers D ...
That is one very fine sample of a G.O. and a superb choice.
I did not know if you own any G.O. but if was sure that if, it would be something very nice Best, Martin
the barrel drives the plate anti clockwise ...
If I reassamble your words in the above order, then it made it for me easier to understand. At first reading the inner three wheels turn anti clockwise and clockwise for me . Great, great post that is fully understandable and very worth understanding: bra...
Indeed it easy to get confused with these planetary gears.
Indeed these little ones wander around the center to the left while each one is rotating to the right on its own stem. I hope I got it right this time. Some seven years back I posted something about these gears that turned out to be one possible mode of w...

It was indeed time to pull the Chronometer out of the dark and to celebrate it again.
A beautiful thing that your renewed fascination, Mar\'s new acquisition and the return of mine from service fell into the same time. Wore mine yesterday (I want to keep it special, never taking it to the office) and there it was again, that deep admiratio...
Knowledge is one matter, intelligence another . . .
. . . but wisdom - that's special. To understand that sharing the Chronometer with another stablemate may not redound to the benefit of both is truly the mark of a sage. Many thanks for the explanatory videos; I wasn't aware of them until just now. Amazed...
Thank you very much, Art.
Indeed you could not be aware of these videos. I did not finish them until yesterday and posted them for the first time Warmest regards, Martin
I had the idea for a while and had prepared the second one for a week or so.
But when you asked what made cal. 58 special I know that I would dig a little deeper to show you. Always a pleasure to have somebody ask Thank you for your kind words and best regards, Martin
Thank you, Tony!
Now that you got your Seventies Chrono, are you ready for something big? ) Best, Martin
