Or, everything else should cost less. Here is my glashutte original panoreserve. I love it. I have known about GO for awhile but hadn’t really looked at it as an option. Last year I went to Watch Time NYC and they had a booth there.

First, quality was nuts. Seeing it person they’re so much nicer than what pics portray. Most impressive watches there for price I saw.

Second, everyone was so friendly and non judgmental. By comparison the guy at Breguet booth was such a pretentious douche bag it’s put me off the brand a bit.

Anyway, went and bought my own shortly after. I put a sickly mint strap that gets dirtier and more moody looking everyday, just the way I like. It’s manual wind and I like that I get to spend 15 seconds winding it everyday I wear it.

    These are stunning BUT I feel like the lack of precision would drive me absolutely insane.

    Honest question: how does it not annoy the everliving fuck out of you that you can’t tell what time it is between xx:23–xx:26 xx:34–xx:37 of every hour? It seems so counterintuitive to me that the watch is made with such precision yet you can’t simply tell what time it is when looking at it.

    I really love a lot of what GO is doing. I wish this design didn’t bug me so much.

      Indexes are all marked around dial, I’ve never had a hard time reading what time it is 🤷‍♂️

      Out of the box it is running less than -1/+1 in five positions, seems very accurate to me.

        P.S.

        accurate

        When I said “precision” above, I meant precision in reading the dial, not the movement! Obviously G.O. kicks ass all over most other makers technically.

      The printing is still there for the hour markers? Am I missing something on why you wouldn’t be able to tell the time when it gets to the bottom sub dial?

        Am I missing something

        Yes. It appears that the 15- and 45-second markers for the subdial are around where the 5- and 7-hours indexes (25- and 35-minute markers) would be, but they’re not. They’re somewhere around roughly 24 1/2 and 35 1/2 minutes and they completely obliterate the spacing of the minutes. It drives me batty when everything else about the watch is super precise.

        I think some of the hours markers are just burned out by the reflections which is why you can’t see them in that pic. They can be seen in the other pic posted.
