Well done, db, and heartfelt congratulations on . . .
. . . being the first Purist to take the plunge with the Karree Panodate! I would like to say I'm right behind you in line, but unfortunately I have to wait until spring for purely financial reasons. We all look forward to your photos and initial impressions . . . cordially, Art
Second impressions of the new Karree Panodate . . .
. . . with the manual-winding cal 22 introduced this year at Basel . . . let's start with the photos, courtesy of Glashütte Original. The Karree Panodate in gold with a silver dial . . . . . . followed by the steel version . . . . . . both of which I've t...
I'm seriously infected ...
Thank-you, Art, for sharing these beautiful pics. I must admit, I am very attracted by the black dial. I haven't yet seen the new Karrees in the shop-windows here in Germany. So, I will have to visit my AD next Saturday and have a look. Unfortunately, one...
Karree Panodate
As we speak, I've opened negotiations to purchase of the 18K version of the Senator Karree. My other options are the Jaquet Droz Grande Heure Minute Email Ivoire (J017034202) or the GO Senator Panorama Date (18K - Cal 100). This will be the more "formal/b...

Its beautiful...
Dear Pals, I dropped by in the GO boutique in KL during lunch time yesterday. Having tried wearing the new karree and inspected the inner beauty of the movement, i find this piece speaks to me dearly. I, for one, would go for the white dial. To me, if you...
Thank you, Cal, for sharing your experience . . .
. . . which entirely matches mine. My first in-the-metal experience with the K P came less than a half-hour after gazing at a new L & S Saxonia, and we must have had precisely the same thoughts. There's precious little apparent difference in movement fini...
Initial Pics - More to Come
Here are a initial pics of the Senator Karree (with the new 22 Cal movement) I pick up tomorrow. Photos courtesy of my jeweler. Front first.... But the biggest first impression is focused on the presentation of the Cal 22 movement in the display back. Qui...
Congratulations...
DB, thanks for showing us the pics. Its really beautiful. Wear it in good health... As i type, i am still thrilled to see the back case of the watch, admiring every detail like the tiny blue screws etc... Art, i may probably have it by end of this year, h...
Well, it looks like I won't be the second Purist, either, . . .
. . . to own a K P! I can't spare the funds until next year, so perhaps by then we'll have a K P fan club with dozens of members. Which configuration appeals to you the most, Cal? Cordially, Art
