glashütte original<br />
ferdinand adolph lange, master watchmaker to the Saxon court, founded the first watch manufac-<br />
tory in Glashütte, Germany in 1845 at a time when the local economy was in desperate need of a<br />
new industry. His bold initiative attracted some of the finest watchmakers of the time, and Glashütte<br />
original produced world premiere complications and noteworthy designs, and that commitment<br />
to mechanical watchmaking at the highest level has remained pure.<br />
ColleCtion HigHligHt<br />
only a timepiece whose precision is rigorously tested by an authorized institute can claim the distinction of being a chronometer. Glashütte original’s<br />
Senator chronometer underwent such testing and is the brand’s first timepiece with an official confirmation in the form of a certificate. The manual<br />
winding caliber 58-01, which powers the Senator chronometer, was re-designed to make the precise synchronization of the minute and seconds hands<br />
possible, while the design of the watch is reminiscent of a classic pocket chronometer with a silver dial that holds the subsidiary seconds and power<br />
reserve displays. The 42mm case is available in either rose gold or white gold with a black louisiana alligator skin strap ($26,900).<br />
