Time goes by, now it's 10 years ago>>>

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?

Seriously Arnaud?

Jocke, I suspect you are not a fan of carrée cases but I think a 70s (either chrono or time-date) would look great in your GO collection. A Senator Excellence would probably work too!

Ok sorry guys, I knew about Jocke's love for german watches but never go to the Rolex section here, I saw the pics and wow that's a ton of watches indeed. Agree about a 70's, I think they look great.
