[ Glashütte Original ]

The Glashütte Original PanoInverse XL was introduced at Basel 2008. It uses a manufacture Caliber 66 hand wound movement. The hand-engraved duplex swan-neck bridge is visually impressive. Although what is even more impressive, is the large balance wheel that oscillates below the bridge 28,800 times per hour.

The case is made in a polished 18k white gold (shown) or 18k rose gold. The time is displayed by two gold on black off-centered subdials. A blued-steel hand at one o'clock indicates the amount of power reserved in the mainspring. Blued-steel screws and gold jeweled settings around the dial, give this watch a nice finishing touch.

The new Glashütte Original Pano Tourbillon XL is 42mm in diameter, which is wider than the orginal model. The Pano Tourbillon XL features a flying tourbillon in the upper half of the dial, which is silver. The lower half of the dial features hour and minute dials and has a black galvanized background. By splitting and contrasting the dial Glashütte has created a very unique and appealing timepiece.

Glashutte Original introduced the Senator Rattrapante with the manual wound inhouse caliber 99 at Baselworld this past week. The watch features a platinum case that is 42 mm in diameter and a split-second chrono function. I agree with Fratellowatches, I love the red hand.
