Glashütte Original pays homage to its heritage by crafting a distinguished series of top-tier mechanical observation timepieces. The Senator Observer 1911 collection, unveiled in a limited edition white gold variant to honor the legacy of Julius Assmann and Roald Amundsen, made its debut ahead of Baselworld in 2012. Subsequently, a stainless steel iteration with a refined silver-grained dial was showcased at the prestigious fair later that same year. Renowned for their exceptional quality, Julius Assmann's observation watches, meticulously handcrafted by the esteemed Glashütte firm, were revered for their precision and dependability, especially in challenging weather conditions. These timepieces became essential tools for navigation officers, pilots, and intrepid explorers like Roald Amundsen, who carried multiple observation watches on his historic journey to the South Pole. Amundsen's admiration for a meticulously crafted pocket watch from Julius Assmann led to its acquisition in 1910 at the German Naval Institute in Hamburg, a year before his groundbreaking expedition to the South Pole. Each variant in the collection is meticulously designed, with options ranging from calfskin or alligator straps to stainless steel bracelets, ensuring a blend of elegance and functionality.
