Glashutte Original Senator Chronograph watch

The Glashutte Original Senator Chronograph watch is a luxury timepiece that exudes enduring quality. Classically designed, and crafted with Old World attention to detail, the Senator Chronograph watch will please connoisseurs thanks not only to these intangible qualities, but also due to its refined Manufacture movement, a creation of this acclaimed German watchmaking house.

At 40 mm, the case of this Glashutte Original watch will please modern sensibilities, yet it does not overstep the boundaries of timeless attractiveness. Crafted from stainless steel or 18K rose gold, every facet of this stately case is given a brilliant polish which exudes a powerful sense of luxury and solidity. It is an ideal combination for the beautifully crafted dials, which are available in plain satin-finished versions, or models which show off an elaborat guilloche pattern. Svelte, and pleasingly long sword shaped hands encircle the dial, complimenting the faceted baton hour markers; luminous elements ensure that the time is easily legible even in darkness.

Naturally, a sapphire crystal is fitted; extremely hard and nearly impervious to scratches, this crystal is gently domed and elegantly merges with the profile of the bezel. A fine strap made from finely tanned Louisiana alligator completes this appealing Glashutte Original timepiece, which connects securely to its owners wrist via a folding clasp made from stainless steel or 18K gold.

The Glashutte Original Senator Chronograph watch is animated by the acclaimed Glashutte Original Caliber 39 movement. This self-winding movement, which has built an enviable reputation for reliability, features a balance wheel which oscillates back and forth 28,800 times each hour, and has a power reserve of approximately 40-hours when fully wound. Visible through the sapphire crystal back, this movement pleases the eye with carefully rendered decorative detail. The three-quarter plate displays traditional Glashutte ribbing which catches the light, as well as distinctive winding wheels which bear a beautiful double-sunburst pattern. The central rotor, relieved to show the distinctive double-G Glashutte symbol, also features a massive 21K gold segment, which contributes mass for efficient winding. The chronograph function, offers a 30-minute and 6-hour totalizer, in addition to continuously running subsidiary seconds. Thanks to the balance wheel frequency, the chronograph can accurately time independent intervals of time with 1/8 second precision.
