Interesting covering, Marcus.
The Watch which interested me the most is the PanoMaticInverse...As I love the manual version, and much prefer it to the automatic, which I find less harmonious, dialside.
One question: I lastly paid a lot of interest in the " high end " chronographs segment from G.O.
If I got it right, the only Panograph available is in Rose Gold?
You who are our secret squirrel, do you know if it will be available in white metal, and most specifically, in stainless steel?
Best,
Nicolas

Don't bet on it ...
As rumours went, the production of the Panograph movement was discontinued several years ago. While it might be possible to re-initiate the production, I would rather suspect the pieces we see now are equipped with movements still on the shelves. There mi...
Thanks for your answer.
I am so interested that I think it will be my next G.O... I will wait till one or two years, then will decide in consequence... Thank you! Best, Nicolas.
Great Report! Quick thoughts...
Thank you for the informative report! The Calibre 37 appears to be a well-engineered chrono movement, very much in line with what I would expect from Glashutte. Based on MSRPs published elsewhere, the (movement's) level of finish is about right for the Se...
Not sandblasted ...
I just wanted to correct this misunderstanding: The silver coat of the platinum Senator dial is hand-rubbed onto the base material. This sounds easier than it is. IN fact, hand-rubbing is one of the oldest silver- or gold-coating procedures known, and nor...
Thanks for clearing it up!
The silver grained finish can be appreciated in a number of Glashutte watches, some of which feature beautiful movement finishing too. Like the Senator Chronometer. I suppose the market will determine if the MSRP is "fair".
Thanks for the great review, ...
Regarding the new chronograph calibre 37, I think that it uses an oscillating pinion and not a vertical clutch as described. At least not for the chronograph seconds. By the way, the oscillating pinion is a great technical solution and people too easily s...
Thanks for the great review/clutch seems to be an oscillating pinion

You are completely right!
The power transfer to the chronograph mechanism is done by means of an oscillating pinion, not a vertical clutch: I will correct my report. Marcus ...
Glashuette Original handwind chronograph pusher feel
Marcus, How does the pinion mechanism cause the stop/reset pusher action to be a harder feel than start action? Regards, MTF
This is what I keep asking myself, too ...
The ubiquitous ETA/Valjoux 7750 has such an oscillating pinion system as well, and here the pusher feel is different: rougher for START, soft for STOP. Marcus
