Thanks!
Btw, I know we buy watches not as investments, but because
we like them. I got lucky a couple of times, through no brilliance
of my own. Having said that, I think the platinum panolunarinverse
is going to turn out very well in that department down the road.
Very special piece for the brand!
Senator Chronometer
I am overwhelmingly happy with this acquisition, this watch is too good. This is my first Glashutte Original, but ordered two more on the spot after trying this one on. ...
Thank you very much!
These are Pano inverse lunar in Platinum and SeaQ big date 2-tone with grey dial on the grey sinthetic strap
I’ve owned
Older generation PanoLunar and 39.5 mm SeaQ in green, superb as expected and the textile strap on SeaQ really is top notch. GO does a great job! We look forward to seeing more pics soon! 👍🏻
This is on my radar.
Love this piece! Deciding about this or the red gold, leaning towards this. Saw the white gold with the grey dial the other day. Then saw a YouTube video which said that one is actually 44mm because the bezel is wider than the body of the case. What size ...
Yes, I chose this model in part
because of its small case size, so we have been thinking in the same direction My wrist size is 17.5 cm and the watch feels perfect on my wrist!
Thanks!

Beautiful pickup!
I love the aesthetic and this dial. Reminds me, does this include a zero reset mechanism?
Thank you so much!
Yes, it has zero reset for the seconds and also it recets thr minute hand to the nearest minute when you pull out the crown and then you can move the minute hand in 1-minute increments for precise timesetting.
A great piece! My special praise was written about it here...
On this page, I wrote about how this watch has been extremely special for 15 years... www.watchprosite.com
Thank you very much, dear Patrick!
Yes, when I wanted to start my GO journey with the right piece it was hard to beat the Senator Chronometer!
Indeed!
I'm so surprised that these other high end brands haven't followed after GO at all. I can understand this - since the average consumer isn't looking for planetary gears that allow torque to be consistent to the mechanism during the few moments you're wind...
Tourque control?
Dear Patrick, did I get you right? Are you saying that that the purpose of the planetary gears in cal. 58 is to consistently deliver tourque to the movement while the watch is being wound? Do you happen to have any further information available that would...
Hi Martin...
My understanding, which may not be perfect... Is that when you wind a normal watch, you're interrupting the flow of torque to the rest of the movement. This inconsistency in torque does cause a slight inaccuracy. This is usually not a big issue since we o...
Hi Patrick,
sounds like this might be one of the technical topics that were common on WPS once and have become a little rare over time. I am not yet convinced that winding the main spring in a classic barrel interrupts rhe dlow of torque towards the movement. While w...
There is definitely a change in the torque on the movement when winding.
Sure, there is no complete loss nor complete interruption in power, but the power is not the same consistency during winding. I don't own the GO watch in question, but if we had a timegrapher, you should be able to see a reduction in amplitude (degrees of...
Got responses from Glashütte
I have sent two questions to Mr. Köppe, Head of the Service Department at G.O. and a master of watchmaking himself, which he kindly responded to. The first one is about the purpose of the planetary gear inthe Senator Chronometer and the second about the d...
Depends :-)
Of course I have asked it due to our discussion that arose from the gear set. But I did not explicitly put it into this context because I did not wand to imply anything in the question.
Thanks for chiming in Nico :)
Yes, the Cosmopolite is a very tempting offering, agree fully.
Got the chance to take a picture in the manufactory last fall
Here you go Best, mon ami, Martin ...
And now you are proceeding to the real heavy weights :-)
Got to see the Chronometer Tourbillon in the manufactory last year. It is really impressive and much beautiful beyond the pictures I had seen before. Yet I think is it something completely different from the Chronometer. Once you have owned both for a whi...
