Owner review: Glashütte Original Senator
When I bought my first good wristwatch back in 2004 – a PAM111, one of the brands that was on the top of my list was Glashütte Original. The favourite was the Panoreserve, but it was twice the price of the Panerai and more of a dress watch than a daily wearer. I wasn’t ready…

Owner review: Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar
What first attracted me to the Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar was the movement – cal. 90-02. It is possibly the most well balanced automatic movement I’ve ever seen.

Our paths crossed on an Edinburgh…

Owner Review: Glashütte Original Panoreserve
Many would say that the best watches that come out of Glashütte are A. Lange & Söhne. I will not disagree, but on the other hand, I will argue that Glashütte Original make some watches of almost the same quality and finish. The main difference is that GO make their models in steel where ALS…
