A modern classic: the PanoGraph from Glashütte Original.

I had the opportunity to borrow this PanoGraph for a couple of days for some photography.

The PanoGraph is a chronograph and it has a special way to show the timing of the chronograph.
The chronograph’s remarkable 30-minute totalizer represents the original design in a contemporary look with a supremely elegant set of three cumulative ten-minute scales with three separate pointers.
Two chronograph pushers at 4 and 2 o’clock are labelled in black, START-STOP and FLY-BACK, respectively, the latter indicating the chronograph reset mechanism, the former the standard chronograph timing operations.

Presented in a red gold case with rose gold hour indexes and hands and rose gold stop/seconds hand on the main dial and a rose gold subsidiary seconds hand.

The PanoGraph takes advantage of a larger case (diameter 40.0 mm) and expansive dial to represent the Pano line’s characteristic asymmetric visuals in a distinctly modern and contemporary manner.

Movement calibre 61-03, designed and hand-crafted in the Glashütte Original manufactory. The manually wound column wheel chronograph is outfitted with a classic switching wheel that operates the various chronograph functions, including start, stop, reset and a satisfying flyback mechanism allowing one to reset the chronograph without first having to stop it: all functions are accessible through the two chronograph pushers on the right side of the case. Easily visible through the sapphire crystal case back are the characteristic features and finishings of Glashütte Original movements, including the traditional three-quarter plate with Glashütte ribbing, screw-mounted gold chatons, screw balance, and swan-neck fine adjustment.

The PanoGraph looks nice even in soft light.

It is a beautiful watch and I think it has cool way to measure time for the chronograph.
Here's a small explanation of how it works.

GO is a "strange" manufacturer

Sometimes they go into such detail and effort to make a complication work, like the Kalenderwoche. But sometimes they make things only for the sheer beauty of it, like this one. I do not see this as an über-accurate chrono, which it is not, but an über be... 

Beautiful watch, BUT,

someone is using the wrong kind of fishing rod, it should be fly rod!

The fishing guy is just a little fishy. :-))))))))))))

I'm pretty sure he bought his catch at the market.

Thanks for sharing!

Great pics and watch. Ghronograph function is also useful while fishing either to measure how long it takes when getting the first fish or how many pound you are able to get in a certain time.

Absolutely amasing...

Fantastic pictures! I think this is the GO with most wuaw factor. The price though is a bit out of reach, but when I see pictures of the watch I always try to think of a way to find the funds

Nice!

Congrats to this beautiful GO! I have only seen the black dialed version in platinum so I think your watch is a little bit unusual. Thanks for posting Tony

Thanks, it does look good indeed,

Pity not mine though, pics from a well known site. Interesting that looks like nobody knows the history of this black date iteration.
