Thanks for your reply and to be honest ...
I am not surprised at all in the case of GO - "was pleased to receive a very detailed step by step description". Even when there was (slightly) more passion for collectors in the past at GO, they are getting more professional (every year) in their communication/information and this is not common these days.
By the way, have we already seen your watch here?

GO Senator Chronograph in platinum: The production of the dial
Hand silver plating by friction - A dial is the face of a watch and I will share some insights for better understanding of a very special one with lots of charm. For the first time I saw the new dial in Basel (2014) and it got my attention, as it showed s...
Excellent report!
When I bought my Sen Chronometer, I emailed GO with a question about the 'milling' process that produced that piece's dial, and was pleased to receive a very detailed step by step description of the process with pictures. Fascinating stuff indeed!

Great to see all the steps, Oliver! :)
Thank you for reminding us that to make a good dial is much more complicated and more steps involved than you might think! :) Great photo tutorial. Best Blomman
Thanks for your kind reply and yes ...
it is a kind of complication we forget about quite often - dials & cases. But we also have to say that quite a few brands don´t like to talk about, for several reasons ;-) Best, Oliver
I hope Glashutte Original reads my reply:
Oliver, your 2 posts on this Senator Chronograph in platinum make me want to buy this watch. The writing, photos, and information are that good. Thanks for these awesome reports!

. . . learned of them almost fourteen years ago, and still learning reasons why. Thank you, Oliver. As our mutual countryman said, God is in the details. Art
Only fourteen years?!
Still there have been quite a few changes at and with GO - good and bad. In some years it was almost impossible to track their novelties and changes. I dind´t like all the changes, but I really liked what I saw in Basel 2014 and also still have a serious ...
I've really learned to appreciate dial-making
this reports, others I have read, and the things I saw in the Grand Seiko workshops have convinced me that the creativity and attention to detail on DIALS and their HANDS can rival the amount of work put into MOVEMENTS. Do we appreciate them in the same w...
I agree with you and I think no ...
most people don´t appreciate it at the same level. Just one example: in-house movements are very important today, but who really cares about in-house dials, hands, cases and also we talk/discuss far less about the latter. Well, we could start to change th...
