Glashütte Original

firstly, its taken 12 weeks because I made the mistake of believing a dealer when he said he had one in stock. he was lying and still hasn't got one in stock, so after going to my credit card company and getting the money back I went to a dealer who prove...  

You'll never tire of this one...it's mesmerizing on top of being beautiful - even to the extent of being hypnotic! It's so different from the standard offerings out there and also happens to be a very photogenic watch. A relative saying hi :-) ...  

thanks Richard, its looking superb on the wrist and is going to visit a purist for the long weekend tomorrow so wait for fridays wristscan. G

Prince Graham, (notice the promotion) This is what I call a regal birthday present. The twin swan neck regulators is something to glue our eyes ... forever. And the brand ... lovely. Congratulations! Cheers, Nilo

thanks Nilo, back to wearing 2 watches for a few days as the piccadilly is still on my wrist and keeping perfect time to the second. G

...  

thank you, my first Glashutte but not my first German watch. definately one i never thought i'd be able to own. G

G, I am going to have to make a trip overseas to see all the watches you have or will have purchased! I like all of them. This is a beautiful choice.

thanks Laurens, but you'll have to learn to be patient as my mum still says today :) best G

Great choice Congrats Yours D P.S. Nico will love this one as well as Art ;)

cheers Buddy, 2 more new pieces to come, but the Habring wont be here until 2015. another PSM in about 3 weeks. fingers are burning hot :) G

Great choice, great watch, it will be with you faithfully for a lifetime! And of course... Happy birthday! Best, massi

i would say thank you Mass, but as you were the dealer who claims 7-8 days delivery, but leaves people waiting over 11 weeks i'm afraid i cant. you may be a really nice person, but as a dealer, you give incorrect delivery time to customers in order to... 

Fortunately you got back the money and now you must only give your time and attention to the grey beauty on your wrist! Cheers, my friend! massi

yes, a really terrible buying experience. i dont normally name and shame but Virtuoso jewellers/watch dealers should be avoided at all costs.

Maybe there was a miscommunication here, but this exchange is pretty shocking. In any event, I'm glad that you finally got it on your wrist!

its a lovely watch to own and wear Mike, possibly my favourite German made watch. as for the way the thread went, sometimes you have to tell it like it is which can be unfortunate, but the matter is closed. best G

Congratulations and happy birthday graham. GO makes really nice and greatly finished watches. Cheers, Mark

this is my favourite of all GO's and it is beautiful. an enamel dialled Speake-marin Piccadilly on the other wrist is very close if not equal, but in a different way. i need to sell a few more of my vintage pieces and then target a perpetual calendar ... 

thanks Doc. i should have prepared in advance so the watch was here for my birthday back in august, but only ordered it on my birthday then got let down by dealer and had to find another from a superb dealer in Pennsylvania. even the xmas watch wont be he... 

thank you young man. i'm loving it equally as much as my speake-marin, but in different ways as they are totally different beasts. best G

Cup of tea! Best, and enjoy, my friend. Nicolas

. . . that Glashütte Original was your cup of tea, Graham. I'm floored, truly I am. I'm going to the vault to retrieve one of my Karrée perpetuals in your honor for this week's Wrist Scan. Normally, a steel version would get the call, but for you, it's go...  

thanks Art. the Panoinverse has always been one for me regardless of the brand. beautifully made and beautiful looking. i am saving now for a perpetual, but not sure which brand. i've always been a big UN fan, but there are a lot of good brands out th... 

I will be totally honest, apart from the Panoinverse and senator perpetual, no other GO really floats my boat, but tastes change so who knows…. Sent from Windows Mail From: www watchprosite Sent: ‎Thursday‎, ‎23‎ ‎October‎ ‎2014 ‎20‎:‎24 To: [Email addres... 

Happy birthday and huge congrats! Thanks for sharing the nice pics here with us :) Cheers robin

Congratulations for your Glashutte! I like the exposed balance wheel! Regards, Constantin

thank you. birthday was 3 months ago, but sometimes its good to wait. I love the exposed balance, the only thing I would say is that the engraved balance cock is slightly at odds with the modernist design of the rest of the watch. still love it though as ...
