Glashütte Original: A response from Glashutte

Just in case anyone was curious - I wrote to Glashutte regarding the 53 weeks on the Senator Calendar Week (thanks Massimiliano ) and received this response: "The calendar year normally counts 52 weeks, just from time to time 53 calendar weeks. In most cases, each year starting or ending with a Thur

Glashütte Original: Thanks

Thanks for your help. I posted my question on their site and look forward to the response. As far as the Senator Week, I love it. Understated, elegant and it comes with an interesting narrative. It's almost been getting as much wrist time as my Sport Evo. -John

Glashütte Original: thanks

Thank you for looking into this - I got to the Glashutte website, registered, but couldn't figure out how to post. I do really love the watch.

Glashütte Original: Date change not at midnight

Wondering if you could share some knowledge. I have a sport evo that changes dates at about 12:02 am and a senator calendar week that changes over at approximately 11:56 pm and begins transitioning between the two dates at about 11:52. First, is this typical of mechanical watches? Of glashutte? Is t

Glashütte Original: Love mine

I love my Sports Evo. Love the look, love the finish, love that it makes Rolex owners jealous. The bracelet is wonderful - the micro adjustments make it very comfortable. It is, however, very heavy. At first, I wasn't fond of the heft but now I'm very used to it. Just got a senator week and when I w
