Reply With QuoteNice work - that's an awful lot of watch for 2.5k! Very pretty movement, too!
Picked this one up yesterday after a tip off from Andrew of this very forum that Leslie Davies in Brent Cross had some Glashuttes on sale (thanks mate, much appreciated). He was indeed right they had 6 Glashuttes on sale, for me this was the pick of the bunch. A Glashutte Original PanoMatic Lunar. When I saw it at first I was dissapointed it was clearly shop soiled... probably having been shipped round the country in an effort to sell it at full price. I initially walked away from the deal, but thinking on it a little more drew me back for a second look. I considered some of the watches I had walked away from and regretted, and couldnt think of one I had purchased that I had regretted. So I returned to Brent Cross to reconsider, the damage to the watch wasnt so bad and could be cleaned up, and the watch itself was beautiful. The movement the finest I has seen. I decided to go for it and got them to chuck in an extra strap as a replacement for the very large OEM gator that can with it and didnt fit my wrist. Once i got it home I gave it a quick clean up, now I am more than happy with it. Got a bargain price too, 50% off the old list price of £5K, £2.5K paid. A quick check on the list prices revealed current list for this model is 8650 euro, if anyone knows the correct UK list I would be interested to know.
Some pictures for you.
Nice work - that's an awful lot of watch for 2.5k! Very pretty movement, too!
Beautiful, just beautiful, may you wear it in health.

Gorgeous! I don't think you'll regret it, I know it's a wedge of money but what a lot of watch.
From the Catalogue I got 2 months ago this is listed with a Louisiana Alligator Strap and is £5,100. Whether prices have moved I'm not sure.
Thanks for the info... seems that the euro zone guys get a rough deal from GO...Originally Posted by Dazzler
Very tasty, love that movement!

Congrats! That is a work of art - very impressive.
You should get yourself the GO DVD in case you didn't already: http://www.glashuette-original.com/popu ... er=contact

That is a stunner - and a superb price.
An excellent buy.
That my friend is what I would call a right result. Well done. Great watch at a great price too.
I would say that was a very good buy! what a movement!
What a great deal - they dont come along very often and you have definately done the right thing to take advantage.
I'm not advocating it but i think that could go on sales corner and go for a small profit any time you want.
I am slightly biased as its my grail watch (to be precise its the XL version) but still love the movement.
enjoy!

I have no intention of selling it just yet. Its the first dress watch I have had that I like. It balances out my modest collection of sport watches nicely. They also had a pano XL half price from £6.5k to £3250, could be worth a shot for someone. REckon they might go a bit more off if pushed.
very nice , oozes (?) quality.. lot of watch for 2.5k , reckon you got yourself a bargain 8)
What sort of condition was the XL in?
Wow, great price on a gorgeous watch! Wear it in good health.
Cheers,
Jay
Great watch & great deal :)
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
That's a lovely watch. Semi-micro rotor as well. The rotor doesn't obscure the balance, which makes having a display back more interesting. :)
Best wishes,
Bob
Congrats to a great watch.
Wear it in good health.

That's a serious piece of kit Oliver, and at a stonking price. Hope you bond - it'll be great as a keeper for 'best'.
Cheers
very nice, a great purchase.

It feels sooooo much better to be wearing a bargain. An absolutely gorgeous watch too. Well done. :thumbright:

Every watch a story.
Very nice and love the movement, but aesthetically I'm still not convinced about the arrangement of 'small' dials on the face.
Sounds like a bargain though, enjoy.
Congrats too,you dont see such a piece too often.
thanks for sharing with(to) us!

I only saw it in the window, it looked fine nothing obviously wrong with it viewing from 12 inchesWhat sort of condition was the XL in?
Beautiful watch - I'd be in a quandary as to whether to wear it with the movement facing out, as it's almost more beautiful than the face!
Enjoy!
I love that watch!
well then....
after 2 days of clling the store; I finally got through and was told that the XL is in yellow gold, white face (not white as i had hoped for) and is £5000 not £3250
majorly dissapointed as i thought i was about to acquire my grail but its still a good buy for someone
when you do gie us a call eh! that's one of my grails and you got an absolutely stonking bargain! congratulations.
Really gorgeous watch!
Love that GO.
Wear it well.
Cheers,
Sebastian.
You not bored with this yet Oliver?? Happy to take it off your hands!! :D
That is a beauty!!! Wear in good health. 8)
Stunning piece - nothing flashy, it just says very quietly 'class'
Enjoy!
