Product Description

Steeped in the rich heritage of precision watchmaking, Glashütte Original proudly presents its exclusive collection of premium mechanical observation timepieces. Among them is the distinguished Senator Observer 1911, a limited edition masterpiece crafted in white gold as a tribute to Julius Assmann and Roald Amundsen. Unveiled ahead of Baselworld in 2012, this exceptional watch was later joined by a stainless steel variant at the prestigious fair, boasting a refined silver-grained dial. Julius Assmann, renowned for his expertise in creating exquisite observation watches, established a legacy of fine craftsmanship in Glashütte. These meticulously handcrafted timepieces, known for their unparalleled accuracy and durability even in the harshest conditions, became indispensable tools for navigation officers, aviators, and intrepid explorers like Roald Amundsen. Fascinated by a precise pocket watch from Julius Assmann, Amundsen acquired it in 1910 from the German Naval Institute in Hamburg. This acquisition would prove invaluable during his historic expedition to the South Pole, where he relied on the watch's unwavering precision. Each variant of the Senator Observer 1911, distinguished by its unique reference number, offers a blend of sophistication and functionality. Whether adorned with a calfskin strap or an elegant alligator strap, secured with a pin buckle or a folding clasp, or featuring a stainless steel bracelet, these timepieces exemplify the pinnacle of watchmaking excellence.
