Glashütte Original Senator Excellence Perpetual Calendar

This time I have the chance to take a little closer look to the Perpetual Calendar in the Senator Excellence line.

The dial is varnished silver-grainé.

This is a full size dresswatch with it's 42mm case diameter made in 18 ct red gold.

The dial have it all, romans, stick markers and arabic numerals.

This caliber 36 as the base movement is the top of the line with the perpetual calendar, center second, panorama date, day & month window, leap year indicator & moon phase

This is one of the easiest perpetual calendar to set with the push buttons at the side.

The blued hands give the white dial a great touch.

The caliber 36 three quarter plate is loaded with the "5 gear in a row" that looks awesome and makes it easily recognizable.

The caliber 36 still have 100 hours power reserve with only one barrel that is impressive with all those complications.

The rotor still have the 21 ct weight that make it spin and wind the watch in both directions.

The balance wheel in caliber 36 have 4 adjustment screws and the traditional swan neck to secure a precise timekeeping.

Nice and clean with the Glashütte ribbings.

Slightly harder editing to highlight the effects at the movement. 

Some mixed pictures.

A syudy in blue.

And of course a wristshot.

A huge thanks to The Glashütte Original Team which makes me happy to get acquainted with their unique creations.
