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.

Literally not the minute markers I mentioned though, right?

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.
