Glashütte Original returns to a theme.
. . . first explored ten years ago with a limited edition platinum Senator perpetual calendar. A current version of the cal 100 Senator Perpetual has been rendered . . .
. . . in a deep shade of blue, and fitted to a steel case.
Also forthcoming, a Senator Panorama Date Moonphase . . .
. . . in the very same hue.
If they're even remotely as compelling in the metal as they are in these images, they'll be singularly successful. Available at Glashütte Original boutiques only, though; hopefully, there will be Stateside distribution through Tourbillon.

I don't have one at the moment . . .
. . . but there is a '14 rose gold Senator perpetual . . .
. . . with a black dial on my hard drive that can be shared for the sake of comparison.
Ceteris paribus, the blue edition cuts a very striking figure. Very, very compelling . . .

My assumption is they're identical . . .
. . . to the established models, which come in 40 mm cases.
Not too big, not too small . . . just right.

GO is on my radar now!
usually not a fan of any date window box, but this one has impeccable layout

There's practically nothing in the realm of perpetual design . . .
. . . nearly as succinct as Glashütte's vision, Ed.

The blue is just sublime!
Both really work but if pushed I'd have a preference for the perpetual. Very nice. Too bad there is no GO boutique here, but then Germany is not far
:D
About 3 hours by car. Munich is four, Dresden - with the nearest Boutique - six. But on the bright side a GO Boutique is coming to Vienna in 2016
Yes, I agree. Especially the Blue PC, which I find terribly beautiful. [nt]
No message body
Just beautiful
That blue is a very nice shade. I can see how it would not be good for the wallet if I saw it in the metal
The once upon a time unreachable perpetual calendar watches...
are now made more accessible by GO and MB, so glad to see more options nowadays.
Such a nice and high quality piece, this blue version is really enticing. I read blue is the new black and I'm missing a blue watch in my collection so which brand/model is now a headache.
Hope to see it available in US boutiques like you said, through Tourbillon.

I'm smitten too!
You've posted two very dangerous proposals, Art!!!
However, it's really a pity they're sold only via the official boutiques.

Surprisingly sweet
I don't recall off hand what GO changed... but whatever they changed, it has a composition and balance that 'suddenly' works. the color doesn't hurt! The hands are new, yes? Other than that and the color, it must be only 'tweeks'? Whatever happened here... it is all of a sudden a really beautiful dial. I am not a huge fan of the cal. 100, in the sense that it's kind of boring, while being very nice at the same time. Not exciting? very very nice watch!
I get your drift entirely . . .
. . . and largely agree. This iteration works amazingly well; there's a harmony between design, dimensions, and color that resonates at a very deep level.
