Rubber strap...
I know I don't post much on this site, but the watch reporting is amazing and I thank you for this great article.
There has been a lot of talk about GO's rubber straps and wearing them on gold watches. Personally, I wear the rubber strap on my Senator Chronometer and I find it more versatile and comfortable than the leather strap coupled with the large deployent buckle with the sharp edges. The rubber also shows off more of the gold case than the leather as the leather is fitted to the case where the rubber is not.
Of course, I ordered the "regular" size strap and still had to drill a hole between the most tight and next hole. How big are the men in Germany anyway? I could have ordered a short strap and it would have fit my 6.75 inch wrist perfectly.

Unveiling of Glashütte Original Grande Cosmopolite Tourbillon in Singapore
Last month, Saxon watchmaker Glashütte Original presented the company's most sophisticated masterpiece - the Grande Cosmopolite Tourbillon in Singapore, after Basel and Hong Kong to a group of press-members at the Ion Sky. Some pieces of the Art & Technik...
Four years later...
I first heard of the development of this watch over four years ago. The ultimate travel-time watch. It's great to finally see some live photos of this piece. The mechanism is without a doubt an amazing piece. But the dial looks almost a little too stoic. ...
Pretty ultimate ...
for a mechanical watch. Six years to commercial this piece is actually very fast. Understand has a handful of interest in this town. Hope to see at least one here For the dial, I would like it to be enamel. The box, is indeed beautiful, will be nice if th...
I think GO will launch a version of this watch without the tourbillon
and thats the one I am waiting for :) watch out for next year Basel. best, Horo
Ah, that's what Beckett had in mind . . .
. . . when he wrote "Waiting for GOdot" ;-) . . .
Hard to put this one into words.
ASTOUNDING. That pretty much covers it. Thanks Kong!
Agree!
Pretty smart watch ... just wish have the interactive video to show the timezone transition. Thanks for viewing. Kong

fantastic coverage Kong.
i did managed to have it on the wrist, but was too afraid to drop it since we were all standing. I am waiting for the non tourby version :)- best, Horo ...
Spectacular coverage, Kong. Thank you. This watch . . .
. . . deserves no less than such an exhaustive effort. I first heard of this incredible complication four years ago. Either the timing for its release was not propitious, or there were technical issues to be ironed out. In any case, I'm glad it's finally ...

Even the quietest Purists . . .
. . . can speak volumes. Thanks for contributing your thoughts, E. I've never tried on one of Glashütte's rubber straps so I can't comment from comparative experience, but in my brief exposure to a Senator Chronometer, I didn't find the alligator strap an...
Senator Chronometer pics...
Art, thank you for your reply. Here are some pics of my Senator Chronometer (I hope this works)! :-) These are in no particular order and maybe a couple of dupes. Feel free to start a new thread with these if necessary. ...
Hmmm...
Thank you for some great pics. I really like one not pictured here, the Observer. This new complication is... really busy and the composition is all off kilter. I imagine it is superbly crafted as all GO's are.
Thanks!
I like the Observer too. If I walk past, will grab you some pics. Thanks for viewing. Kong
Great coverage of this event Kong
It a nice way to see how they evolved these last years. Thanks for the hard work. Cheers, Mark

here with my first Panomatic Lunar on the way as we speak. My two favourite brands to this point have been VC and JLC (in that order) but for me this is the best presentation of this type of watch I've seen - beautiful , even if I am a little unclear on t...
