its a fantastic watch.
funny story how I got mine. I am familiar with the Sixties, but only thought it was available with the panoramic date widow and a rather large 42mm (I guess?) case, so I dismissed it. but last week I saw a picture of it floating on Instagram without a date window, and at 39mm with this beautiful blue face. It was an instant buy, went to the A.D. the next day and got it on the spot. I guess its not a spontaneous call after all, it met all my criteria ( three hands, time only, less than 40mm, and in-house made).
My first thread- G.O. Sixties
Hello all, My name is Ali, and I am from Kuwait. I have been a long time reader of this website, but never mad a contribution before. I have always been fascinated by the mechanical wonder of the horology world. I am new to this, started collecting watche...
Hello Ali, firstly, welcome to The Purist Forum....
In my opinion the Best Horological Forum made by the Best and Nicest People. What a great watch your are showing, amazingly, just this last Saturday, I tried one on and exactly the same as the one you are wearing, the details are fantastic. The shape of t...
Dreaming
I try not to think about Art's Karrees, except when I am daydreaming that over lunch one day Art says, "You don't have a Karree? Here take one of mine. "
"One man's dream . . .
. . . is another man's nightmare." :-) Well, at least Steve is only dreaming about one of my Karrees! That leaves three for me . . .
Three left! Not bad..well perhaps not quite:)....
as a gentleman needs one for each season;) is this greed? or just exquisite taste? Cheers Francois, from Down Under
The Four Seasons just for you and Steve, François . . .
. . . as told by Karrees . . . ...
Thank you
Thank you for your kind words Francois, it is indeed a nice watch, you should get one. I think Glashutte brand is undervalued in this world, which is a good thing for us watch lovers :)
Welcome to PuristSPro and thanks for coming out of the lurking woods!
Your GO looks fabulous on your wrist. Wear it in the best of health! Cheers, Anthony

..your exceptional watch here..it is beautiful and looks great on you :) GO is one of the few brands I love EVERY SINGLE model from that I have seen :) warm regards, Asad p.s. please share a picture of all your collection, even if it is here..GO forum has...
alright
Here you go. The SevenFriday looks odd there. But hey, I'm 26 and still allowed to have huge watches:p ...
thank you sir!
you have a wonderful and very tasteful collection..it would have been quiet a loss not seeing it together....each one of your pieces appears to be selected after deliberation and personal interest...variety is the spice of life, so it is wonderful diverso...
Ah, there's one more we have in common - a . . .
. . . 44 GS also resides in my collection. Quite similar to the Sixties, at least on paper . . .
The elusive watch
aaah the GS44. my current favorite watch. not available in my region, I bought it used from an English man, after 3 months of search. my current obsession is the Grand Seiko, possibly the best dials in business, and they are truly for the purist. the GS o...
Great first post ...
... and both, your watch and your pictures are worthy to celebrate this "first"! The "Sixties" is a story of success for GO, and a very unique watch. Your version is the cleanest one, with its striking blue dial nearly flashy, but only "nearly". Thanks fo...
Welcome, Ali! . . .
. . . glad you joined in with your one Glashütte, which happens to be one of my favorites in the current collection. For those who haven't seen it in person, the latest Sixties is well worth the trip to an authorized dealer even if you're not actively sho...

Elegance and simplicity . . .
. . . are more difficult to implement than one might imagine. I count on G O getting it right far more often than not; in this case, they nailed it perfectly. Art
Excellent Choice!
I love the blue dial. I've had the opportunity to try on both the date and non-date models. I wouldn't mind having either one in my collection. Both watches are simple and versatile. You can wear it with a suit or with jeans. Enjoy! Dave
Ali, congratulations for this very nice watch, which is a Classic, too.
Looking forward to reading more from you! Best, Nicolas.
