The first of the two to join the family was the weekly calendar, as it was already almost impossible to find (already having another perpetual GO, the PC Senator could wait...): after seeing the purity of the lines and the beautiful dial, the step to perpetual was practically mandatory...
The years go by, and the joy of admiring these German creations increases more and more, especially the pleasure of continuing to read the writings without the need for glasses!
Have a nice week,

In my journey of getting to know the Glashütte Original brand, from the early 2000s, these two models are among those that intrigued me the most, one due to its absolute unusualness and particularly complex movement (the weekly calendar), the other for th...
Beautiful calendar week
Except that in my industry we don't reckon time in this way so I find it hard to justify enjoying one Plus this is a manufacture service only calibre so that also weighs the scales against it Maybe one day...
I want to be a brother with any of these
To me it's surprising that calendar week didn't become more popular and even more surprising that GO took it out of production after such a short time. The unique movement must have been both difficult and expensive to produce and then not used in any mod...
The Kalenderwoche is a quintessential German or European business watch.

or the Keyzer Söze of watches. Not much people have seen it, only heard about it. 😂😂😂
I will say
Here in Sweden, there are professional groups that work with weekly planning, e.g. the construction industry, the automotive industry, etc. But these professional groups would never use such a watch.
I remember
reading an article in which GO's technical director explained how the Week calendar was sold at a "low" price because, when it was presented, a price was also communicated, but all the technical aspects had not yet been resolved. Aspects that greatly incr...
The Kalenderwoche .... that is an important GO, for GO collectors.
It is beautiful, a nice "anual calender" watch and technically unmatched. I don't own a GO, because I want this one to be the one GO I own.
