Glashütte Original Senator Chronograph Panorama Date: Finally, the Saxon brand has added a fully integrated automatic chronograph caliber to its collection. The entirely new, in-house-developed movement, Caliber 37-01, can be produced for a reasonable price, so the models equipped with it can be sold at fair prices. The prices start at $31,500. for the watch in a rose-gold case. The movement is used in GO’s Seventies Chronograph, which is sold at a lower price point, but I much prefer the Senator.

I enjoy looking at the pretty photos of expensive watches in Watch Time. I mean who doesn’t. But this magazine is more fantasy than reality. Some part of me also abhors these emails I signed up for…because I am tired of seeing watches consistently >$10,000. I mean, I make a decent living, but who has the discretionary to buy these watches? Seriously “watch insiders” can you pick some watches that aren’t $270,000.

Well said, unfortunately it leads to losing interest because all I see is reviews and specs of things I will never have. Not to critizise just an opinion, but for me u$s 2000 is not affordable.
What the hell are you talking about? Who wants to see a review of Fiat Multipla? Or some other crappy totally ordinary car that you see thousands around every day?
The same goes for watches…if you want to admire citizens, casios and other crap, go elsewhere…world of watches is not obviously for you.
We are here to see beautiful and extraordinary timepieces and unfortunately for you (and thankfully for us), these are rare and expensive. And that is the point.
For the most part, I find these watches clunky, too busy and overwrought. Compare it to my original Omega Speedmaster, with its black face, simple white hands and subtle outer scale markings, these chronographs just look to be trying too hard. They may have technical features that far surpass the old Speedmaster, but aesthetically, they can’t compete.
The exception is the Glausutte, which is the only one I find elegant, clean and functional.
Great choices. All great watches.
Now, question to you; if you were to recommend one affordable non quartz chronograph watch; which one would you pick?

No Seiko Ananta?

I think Longines is always a good choice…their Master collection chronograph is a joy…
