Glashütte Original celebrates its rich heritage by crafting a series of exquisite high-end mechanical observation timepieces. Among these is the distinguished Senator Observer 1911, a limited edition masterpiece in white gold paying homage to the legacies of Julius Assmann and Roald Amundsen. Unveiled before Baselworld in 2012, this exceptional watch was later joined by a stainless steel variant at the renowned fair, boasting a refined silver-grained dial. Julius Assmann, a renowned artisan in the realm of observation watches, established a legacy of crafting meticulously handcrafted timepieces in Glashütte. Renowned for their precision and reliability, Assmann's observation watches became essential tools for navigation officers, pilots, and intrepid explorers like Roald Amundsen, who relied on them during his historic journey to the South Pole. In 1910, Amundsen was captivated by a remarkably accurate pocket watch created by Julius Assmann, which he acquired at the German Naval Institute in Hamburg. This acquisition proved invaluable as Amundsen and his team became the first humans to conquer the geographic South Pole a year later. Each variant of the Senator Observer 1911, distinguished by unique reference numbers, offers a distinct style and functionality to cater to discerning tastes. From calfskin straps with pin buckles to stainless steel bracelets and alligator straps with folding clasps, these timepieces exemplify the precision and craftsmanship synonymous with Glashütte Original.
