Product Description

Immersed in the rich heritage of watchmaking excellence, Glashütte Original unveils a distinguished collection of premium mechanical observation timepieces. Among them, the extraordinary Senator Observer 1911 series stands out, paying homage to the legacies of Julius Assmann and Roald Amundsen. The inaugural piece, crafted in limited white gold, was a prelude to the grand reveal at Baselworld in 2012. Following this, a stainless steel variant graced the stage with a refined silver-grained dial, epitomizing elegance and precision. Renowned for their expertise in observation watches, Julius Assmann's Glashütte establishment was revered for its meticulous artistry in handcrafting these horological marvels. These timepieces, celebrated for their unrivaled accuracy and durability even in the harshest climates, became essential tools for navigators, aviators, and trailblazers like Roald Amundsen, who entrusted multiple observation watches on his historic South Pole expedition. Amundsen’s fascination with a supremely accurate pocket watch from the renowned Glashütte watchmaker Julius Assmann in 1910 led to its acquisition at the German Naval Institute in Hamburg. A year later, equipped with this precision instrument, Amundsen and his team achieved an unprecedented feat by conquering the geographic South Pole. Available in various configurations, including calfskin or alligator straps with different buckle or clasp options, each reference in this remarkable collection embodies the epitome of craftsmanship and functionality, reflecting Glashütte Original's unwavering commitment to horological excellence.
