Glashütte Original

I've posted version of this review elsewhere on the web but since this the only active dedicated GO forum I've come across I thought I would share it here too. I will try to convey my thoughts and experiences with the watch and I hope you will enjoy the p...  

i love GOs and though this Panograph has eluded me and I've not been able to handle one in the metal, your experience with it and the great pictures speak volumes!

... if you come across one do let me know what you think of the chrono pushers. I just love how refined they are.

with superb photography. Fully agree on your judgments. Congrats to this marvel. CC

To be honest this watch is nothing short of amazing such cool unique complication Definitely among my most favorite G O of all time Sincerely Damjan

.... with very arresting pictures! Thanks!

Excellent review! What camera (and setup) did you use to photograph? I agree that the new dial is an improvement on the original version. I never felt the silver chapter rings never matched well with the rose gold case, making the old gold version less de... 

... these pictures were taken at different times over the course of the last year. Most of the regular pictures were taken with a Fuji XT1 and a Fuji 35/1.4 The photo of the watch in its box is an iPhone pic. Extreme closeups were taken with Fuji XT1 plus... 

"... Basically there were no technical changes made to the movement - we only have optimized the fine adjustment of the individual components and the design of push button as you have already mentioned. "

Thank you for making the inquiry. The Cal 61 remains impressive, even if the technical specifications (power reserve, timekeeping, etc) are pretty standard. The Panograph continues to be one of my favourite watches and it has held up well over the years.

I share your enthusiasm for this Watch even if I prefer the sophistication of the PanoRetroGraph. We tend to forget that G.O produced some very interesting Chronos. The two mentionned, and a veeery interesting Rattrapante. I am in the hunt for a steel Pan... 

... indeed they have made quite a few interesting chronographs. I didn't actually know about the GO Rattrapante until two weeks ago, it seems to have been entirely missed by the community at large at least as far as what I've encountered. And putting asid... 

The new Patek 5370P has to be mentionned, in the elusive gang of fine chronographs, too. Pfff, a killing theme! Best, Nicolas

What An Amazing Review! Thanks for every word. It's already late here, so I might have to read and enjoy it again. Will certainly do so. BR Kolosstt

... I thought you had declared war against me :P

I did it my way. :O ... ;))

. . . who owns one." Packard, 1901; and now, Glashütte Original, 2015. Exceptional review, tempo . . . thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Your comment regarding the tactile feedback of the pushers is shared, and I'd extend that observation to th... 

... I would also agree that the winding action is very smooth. Didn't think too much about it when I was writing although my personal preferences is towards watches with *slightly* more resistance in the action. I think the word Justice Potter was referri... 

. . . well played, tempo, well played ;-) . . .

The Pano design is surely a winning design for GO. The fact that it can incorporate an, unusual, chrono so easily is the prove. Not being a chrono man I feel this Panograph is the perfect symbiosis between a piece of jewellery and a chrono watch. Thank yo... 

.. is capable of winning over those who don't usually like chronograph dials. Apart from the larger size of the minutes counter, its proportions and layout are not very different from the PanoReserve or the Panomatic Lunar. Asymmetric but nicely balanced ... 

Obviously, tremendous photos and words to go with them. But what most impresses me is your passion for this watch - it is quite evident! And THAT is what it is all about. Very happy for you.

I'm always happy to share my enthusiasm about this watch with like minded folks!

particularly in the evaluation of the techncial and aesthetic merits of a vertical vs. a lateral (or horizontal) clutch mechanism. I enjoyed this review thoroughly - thanks for taking the time! Magnus
