Glashütte Original

Great photos!

 

The cleaner, more spacious dial matches well with the rose gold case. The luminous hands are a great addition to the piece compared to its predecessor. Finally, the slightly tweaked counter scale should be a bit easier to read, especially when the elapsed time reading falls between 20 and 30 min. Without being able to make an apples-to-apples comparison (steel-to-steel), I could say conclusively whether I prefer it to the previous version.


So why is the new Panograph under appreciated? A white metal case would broaden its appeal further, but the price is still an issue. The original version, available in steel, was relatively accessible, allowing it to develop a passionate cult following. I don't think even a steel version could hit that sweet spot (price-wise), but I am sure it would be highly desirable. Especially to collectors who owned (or own) the previous version.
