Watch Nerds. Glaschuttes Original?

Legit.

GO is made in the Glashütte region of Germany which arguably has a better reputation the Swiss Made in general. As with most Glashütte brands GO gives very good value for money.

They are probably best known for their asymmetrical Panomatic line. I have one of their Sixties Iconic Collection variations that came out in 2013 and the quality is above what is expected at the price point. The SeaQ line IMO is great because it is one of the more interesting "new" takes on the dive watch. The grande date (they call it a panorama date) tends to be a love it or hate it complication, I personally like them but date complications are one of the most divisive visual aspects in all of watchdom.

Expect 10-15% off at a brick and mortar 20-30% off at online retailers like Jomashop.

There are a TON of options for dive watches in that price range.


As for the specific watch you linked note that green was the new black in 2021 and is less on trend now but most people buy a watch without being influenced by colorway trends but green isn't the most flexible watch color but again most people don't match their watch to their clothes and just buy a dial color they like. It has a solid in-house movement that has 100 hours of power reserve. It is a bit of a chunk at over 43mm and around 15.5 mm thick, if that is too much watch they have a non-panorama date SeaQ that is around 40mm diameter and 12mm thick (similar to a Submariner).

I’d really like to own the 39.5mm Sea Q.

Very pretty.

I want this

They're good. What kills them for me is the awful font that they use for "PanoMaticLunar." It looks like a default Microsoft Word font

Yuck.

I have the GO pictured below: ref# 39-44-04-12-04 Senator Power Reserve Moon. I think the company puts out some fantastic watches. Part of Swatch Group since around the turn of the century. Similar to AL&S, but have more varied offerings. Very fine and very Teutonic watchmaking.

I sent this one in for servicing through DeBoulle in Dallas because the power reserve was stuck in the fully wound position and because it had not been serviced since around 2008 or so. Expecting it back soon.

I think the SeaQ is a great looking watch, but I would not be wanting to be in it at RRP. If you can pick one up around $7500, you would be pretty sound in it. I would def tell you to see what it looks like on your wrist. I think GO watches wear big in general. I think it is hard to justify any SS dive watch at that recommended retail price over a Sub, in my opinion.
