    Hmm, kann sich jetzt wohl auch darüber streiten, ob's so die feine englische Art ist, hier, kommentarlos, einfach einen Link zu seinem eigenen Blog zu posten... Schöne Uhr aber definitiv!


    Hi Monty.


    I am writing in English for my German is unfortunately much worse than my English. I apologize so much if I broke some rules when I posted my link.


    But at the same time, I want to explain that there is no blog I have it's a website with photos. The reason I post a link is that in some forum platforms,
    if the members use the qoute function and then I have posted a lot of pictures, they will be displayed once again, which means I have to scroll unnecessarily.
    I would also like to clarify that my website is a hobby project and thus not commercial or generates any income for me. My goal is only to share my impressions and pictures with you, which I hope you think is okay. Will you please tell how you want it in the future, because this is the type of post I usually make, text and pictures.


    Best regards
    Jocke

    my good friend Tony's last incomming watch. So I have to made a few quick ones.



    It's a great choice of mixed colors on this watch.





    It's not bad in the dark either.



    After a few visits at Baselworld I got my eyes wide open for a company named Glashütte Original
    this was in 2005. We was invited to the company and they treat us as the stars we are, so we feel
    at home from day one. Just two regular guys that love watches are not accustomed to this attention,
    rather used to hearing: Is it genuine?



    When I saw the Sport Evolution on Trieste strap for the first time so did I know now is it just a matter of
    time. So some time after we hit 2006 was it a fact, my first Glashütte Original is here just like I want it.
    Caliber 39 it's a great entry movement that can be configured in a lot of different options.







    As it use to be so after the Sport Evolution have landed I start looking for next one, The PanoMaticLunar
    is a watch that don't looks like a regular watch. The off center dial, small secondhand, panoramadate &
    moonphase can cause eyes to be torn. And if that is not enough so can you always turn it around and rest
    your eyes on the caliber 90 with a micro rotor and duplex swan necks. This is art my friends.







    After I have enjoy my Glashütte Original watches for some time so will the caliber 100 gets my attention
    and I looking around for one of those but just in the middle of all, I stumbled upon a Senator Chronograph
    and then the caliber 100 dreams awaiting a little bit because this one have a caliber 39. Now I begin to
    realize that this is an addiction that can not be cured but with my dear wifes support so we must try to
    learn to live with this disease.







    I get no support from the Glashütte Original company so at next Baselworld did I realize how bad they can
    be when they completely ignored, they put a PanoInverse in stainless steel in my hand with a smile on their
    lips. My first thought where did they hear when I said earlier at the release of the gold PanoInverse that
    I had bought it if it was stainless steel. Then when they made a stealth version, all of my resistance was
    destroyed. So when it landed in Sweden, I stood outside the AD with the credit card in my hand and shouting,
    it's mine, it's mine and of course it was.







    Before I retrieve from the previous release, of course, they update the PanoMaticLunar with a better balance
    at the dial and with a thinner bezel it gets a very sophisticated impression. Furthermore, the size of the hands
    is increased and filled with Super Luminova which icing the cake. So it's going to take a while when you're as
    weak as I can not resist the temptations of this rank. Of course it ends with one of those too.







    When I thought I saw everything, of course, Glashütte original should continue its brilliant show how to break down
    a watchoholic to the smallest elements. Well then, we have to show how we update our Senator Observer down in our dial
    manufacturer in Pforzheim with an artistic touch with our cans filled up with Super Luminova. The black matte dial with
    all those Super Luminova is to die for. And to ensure that one of these watches lands in Sweden, we obviously see that
    there is a caliber 100 on the other side of the dial. Yes you understand where it ends, where we are right now.









    Luckily, it's almost a year to the next Baselworld so I get some peace, so it will be a visit next year again with a bumpy
    heart when I enter your booth. For one thing, it is for sure that this journey will never ends. So with mixed feelings, I
    have to say thank you for everything Glashütte Original. You are undoubtedly my favorite watch manufacturer and we have had
    a unique relationship over the years, which I really appreciate. So this is my first 10 years with Glashütte Original so now
    lets focus on the next ten years.



    My warmest regards.

    I got my first modern Glashutte Original after a visit to their booth at Baselworld in 2006.



    My first Glashütte Original became a first-generation Sport Evolution with one line of red text and the white background of the panorama date window.





    Then it did not take long before I realized that the Caliber 90 attracted me enormously. And when I get that feeling so I know that it is only matter of time
    before it becomes a fact. What attracted me most was then a PanoMatciLunar which then took place in my collection.



    In order to achieve a sportier look so I equipped it with a steel bracelet.





    The Caliber 90





    The next question I asked myself was: I have no Glashütte Original chronograph so what was better suited than that when setting its sights on a timeless one.



    Also this one with a steel bracelet.





    A few years later, so put Glashütte Original new ideas into my head again at Baselworld when they present a PanoInverse made of steel that I can not resist.
    Yes, you see where we are going, I guess.



    Suddenly I have become a stealth watch with duplex balance at the "dial" side.





    Furthermore this company continues to elude me and move on in my bones when they take a watch and refines it further and serve the new PanoMaticLunar slammed on
    me yet again on the treacherous place popularly known as Baselworld. This is not a fair game in progress, as I can of course not recover from the shock before the
    next one comes. Of course, so ended such with me, also with the steel bracelet.





    Then history repeats itself again when Glashütte Original is the idea of updating The Senator Observer with exactly what it lacked, Luminova. This dial is probably
    among the most classy that I own, I can look at it for hours.





    This must be seen in the dark.





    The question I ask myself now is: How will this end?
