It's not often I have it on me, 1-2 times a month. The glass has small scratches but I will grind it. I wear usually Longines Master Collection. I would like to have a modern GO, but my wallet is too thin.
Regards

i know very little about the history of Glashutte other than WE bombed the factories in 1944 and then the Russians helped the East Germans form GUB. i've seen a lot of GUB watches from the 60's, but i've never seen one with Glashutte Original on the dial ...

Hi Graham! You are not the first to ask about this. I read the information about Glashütte and it said that in 1921 came the first named Glashütte Original. I have been in contact with Jean Neef who has a sait called Glasutte archives and he informed me t...

Hi Anders, Thanks for your interesting post about the inscription "Glashütte Original" on vintage GUB watches! Because that was news to us (our first impression was something like "dumb dial fake") , we tried to get a confirmation by an "official per...
