Glashütte Original

Thinking = Danger.

I am starting to think too many times in the same watch and that is dangerous, specially for my wallet.

Jokes apart...........the GO Sport Evolution Perpetual SS on SS bracelet is knocking on my door.

What do you think about it? I really love the Sport Evolution collection, the face of quality can be seen in every detail.(IMHO).
I felt in love with the "regular" SE (the Panoramadatum) many years ago and that love has been growing little by little during those years. The SS bracelet is very well built, the fine adjustment is a pleasure to use and a very useful solution specially for the seasons change and weight changes.
I've been about to buy it several times but, in the never-ending search for the "perfect" ( it depends on the moment? day? year? mood?) watch, I needed more. In this case, more information. So I changed my mind and started thinking in the main character of my post. A sport watch is SS with SS bracelet with a look I really like, not big not small (42,5mm), with a perpetual calendar, including moon phase indicator. Discrete, elegant, useful.
But, there is a but. There is one issue that dislike me, the cities on the bezel.

It looks too busy, doesn't it?

What about a bezel change?

Would love to hear your opinions, suggestions, advices, thoughts, etc

Thanks.

The answer to the bezel is

The Senator Ceramic, Ewiger or Navigator Perpetual. I am torn between the Ewiger Perpetual in SS or the Navigator. I do not like the red hand on the Navigator or lack of Lume at the quarter markers of the current edition Ewiger. So, it becomes which one d...

Better not change it

Hi Vte, I remember the topic of the Cities on the bezel having come up half a year ago. You can find my thoughts about it in this post. Short version is: I would not exchange the bezel because there is no sensible alternative. A Diver's bezel (Panorama Da...

It's a matter of taste, but . . .

g . . . as Martin rightly points out, the inclusion of cities is the most consonant choice possible. If I were a frequent traveler, this would be the first watch on my list . . . cordially, Art...

Please would someone explain how the timezones: Berlin/Samoa, Cairo/Hawaii, Woscow/Anchorage, Dubai/L. Angeles, Karachi/Denver are lined up on the bezel this way - which is completely insane! amerix

sorry because I mistyped

Woscow for Moskau, and could not edit it out thanks to Mac Safari and your Programmer. But hot Cairo on the same longitude as cold Anchorage - is frankly driving me nuts! As for latitude, completely OK - but what is going on here? amerix

The locations on the bezel are ~ 180º apart, Amery . . .

. . . it's an 'either-or' rather than an 'and' proposition . . . cordially, Art

thanks very much, Art for the correction

Often I have to deal with things that are in phase ot out of phase, or a slightly out of phase - music and sound-mixing - by ear. So a 160 degree phase-shift is a great embarassment to me! Now I can start to really like your watch, without knowing how the...

Completely off topic: phase inversion in reproduced sound . . .

. . . is a matter of sensitivity to me, also. All my vinyl albums are marked for phase, and I find it easy to tell the difference so long as the playback system is designed to minimize phase distortion . . . cordially, Art

OT here is on target!

And thanks very much, Art, for explaining the positioning of the cities on the bezel of the WT.s. Of course I meant 180 and not 160 degrees. I am typing half blind, with no chance to edit out mistakes on my or the watchprosite system; the problem is know....

Analog rules! And I'll take tubes over solid state, too . . .

. . . isn't it funny how the passion for both music and watches seems to be evident in so many of us? Cordially, Art

Ditto. Finely tuned sensibilities, Art. :-) [nt]
