Glashütte Original: 70x105mm

I ordered 70 x 105mm, and it fits perfectly. Maybe a little too perfectly, as it is short enough I snipped off the second keep, as it didn't do anything. I would consider going a bit larger, but the advantage to 70x105 was that it was a standard size, and so did not have a surcharge for custom measu

Glashütte Original: Not a bad idea...

FWIW, I have been wearing just it over the holidays. I set it against an atomic clock 12/24, and I just checked its time this evening. To my eye it looks perfect, but at the very least is can't be off more by more than a fraction of a second in > 4 days. So it is certainly keeping fantastic time.

Glashütte Original: No, not yet.

No, I hadn't done it yet. I ran out of time before the holidays, and figured I would follow up after the New Year. I contacted them once about strap dimensions though, and they were very helpful. I'll see about giving them a call.

Glashütte Original: Swatch

I contacted Swatch, and mentioned both details. They didn't actually respond about the sluggish pusher change, but they did about 12:01 and also confirmed that 12:01 is normal.

I left a message with Swatch and am still waiting to hear back. I also talked to the store where I purchased it. The latter has been happy to help, even though its outside the 12 month warranty they normally offer; but before I decide a course regarding servicing, I wanted to be sure about the issue

Can anyone confirm that when changing naturally (eg, just running) the date changes at 12:00 vs 12:01?

Glashütte Original: 12:01

I just watched it change naturally, and the date flipped precisely at 12:01. Something definitely a bit fishy going on. It wasn't sluggish though, it snapped instantly.

Yes, it seems to jump instantly as I manually turn the hands past midnight. As to whether it was always instant with the pusher, no, it never has been, but I bought it used. It was, however, still pretty snappy; but slow enough you could see the disc turn, while in the hand-setting case it is practi

Glashütte Original: Senator Chronometer: Sluggish Date Change via Pusher

I was setting the date on my GO Senator Chronometer today with the pusher, and it did something rather odd. When I pressed the pusher, it would move the date about half way after release, then slowly, taking a second or more, finally snap the rest of the way to the next date. I hadn't worn the watch
