Glashütte Original

Not the first GO I've wanted, but this PML is the first I've bought

 

Its grey (ruthenium? anthracite?) dial and substantial nubuck alligator strap give this watch a full, mature feel. Given my current frame of mind, I'd go as far as to say 'age appropriate.'


Watches of distinction are sometimes described as head-turners. Not here, hopefully. The nice thing about this one is that it can pass unnoticed when it's not hiding under the cuff. A purely private pleasure... so satisfying...

That it comes in at one quarter of the price of its illustrious predecessor is a bit of a thrill too. I've always been a value collector focused on getting the most out of my money and, in this regard, this is a bonkers good watch.

p.s. Apologies for the random acts of cat fur and dust. I'm moving house and it's a building site beyond this photo.
