On one side I am referring to\u00a0<strong>Frederique Constant<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>Alpina<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Ateliers de Monaco<\/strong>\u00a0being acquired by the giant\u00a0<strong>Citizen<\/strong>, an acquisition that makes the presence of the Japanese manufacturer on European soil even stronger and that also adds to its portfolio the already existing brands\u00a0<strong>Angelus<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Arnold<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>&amp;<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Son<\/strong>\u00a0managed through\u00a0<strong>La<\/strong>\u2013<strong>Joux<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Perret<\/strong>, on the other side I am putting the spotlight on the new<strong>\u00a0caliber<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>36<\/strong>\u00a0by\u00a0<strong>Glash\u00fctte Original<\/strong>, the choice of this marketing name appears (willingly?) odd since it is ideally associated to a caliber produced by one of the manufacturer\u2019s major competitors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 9\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_9.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_9\">Four main pillars have marked the development of the new <strong>caliber 36 <\/strong>housed inside the new <strong>Senator Excellence<\/strong>; <strong>extreme stability<\/strong>, <strong>long autonomy<\/strong>, \u00a0<strong>high<\/strong>\u2013<strong>range<\/strong> <strong>precision<\/strong> and <strong>aesthetic<\/strong> <strong>style<\/strong>. <strong>Glash\u00fctte<\/strong> have paid particular attention to the crafting of their new movement by reducing the number of its parts and by coming up with an extremely compact automatic caliber. From an aesthetic point of view the caliber is very smooth also thanks to its overly skeletonized bi-directional winding rotor that totally eliminates the need for a detent click winding system. A <strong>bayonet<\/strong> system that resembles that of optical elements fixing in cameras allows the housing of the movement within the case of the <strong>Glash\u00fctte Original Senator Excellence<\/strong> and makes it extremely shock-resistant while also making it totally maintenance-friendly when servicing operations are required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 6\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_6.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_6\">The <strong>silicon<\/strong>\u2013<strong>made<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>hairspring <\/strong>has eventually reached the workshops of <strong>Glash\u00fctte<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Original<\/strong> too, the internal migration between the different brands pertaining to the same group is thus continuing and it is no surprise at all that there are still so many differences across them when it comes to applying such technology. It is not a matter of technological maturity but the main point is that the silicon technology is available inside the group but every brand adopts it and then adapts it according to its specific developmental plans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_4.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_4\"><strong>Glash\u00fctte Original<\/strong> is one of the most traditional brands of the group, in my opinion it is even more traditional than <strong>Breguet<\/strong>, and before organically inserting this technology in their products they have probably waited for the full development of a new caliber (or possibly even for the development of a family of new calibers.) The <strong>silicon<\/strong>\u2013<strong>made<\/strong> <strong>hairspring<\/strong> is not affected by either <strong>magnetic fields<\/strong> or <strong>temperature<\/strong> <strong>variations<\/strong> and it sports a strongly isochronous oscillation amplitude.\u00a0The <strong>caliber 36<\/strong> has also been tested in <strong>six different positions<\/strong> versus the<strong> 5 ones<\/strong> required by <strong>COSC<\/strong>, this is a customization of the Swiss testing procedures whose parameters are, however, still quite far from what is required to obtain the <strong>Master Chronomete<\/strong>r certification, the internal benchmark on the market.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_2.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_2\">The <strong>Glash\u00fctte Original Senator Excellence<\/strong> tells us a story of tradition; its <strong>caliber 36<\/strong> puts together the very best of existing applied technologies with the quintessence of traditional watch-making, like, for instance, the <strong>100<\/strong>\u2013<strong>hour<\/strong>\u2013<strong>power<\/strong> <strong>reserve<\/strong> that is linked to the <strong>4Hz<\/strong>\u2013<strong>frequency<\/strong> of the balance wheel (when duration meets precision.) In order to achieve this phenomenal result, <strong>Glash\u00fctte<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Original<\/strong> have used a <strong>single barrel<\/strong>, they have stretched the length of the spring and maximized the number of windings around the shaft\u00a0of the barrel whose dimensions, if compared to a standard one, have been reduced.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 8\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_8.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_8\">From an aesthetic point of view <strong>Glash\u00fctte<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Original<\/strong> calibers are among the most prestigious ones, their finishing and attention to details is quite unique and despite the fact that the <strong>caliber 36<\/strong> is a time-only caliber it has been crafted with a specific objective in mind; to provide the owner of a <strong>Glash\u00fctte Original Senator Excellence<\/strong> with the utmost pleasure and feeling of satisfaction. The<strong> three-quarter main-plate<\/strong>, the stainless steel and gold rotor with the logo on full view, the <strong>ribbon<\/strong>\u2013<strong>pattern<\/strong> decoration and the <strong>gear train of the manual winding system<\/strong> contribute to create a rich and satisfying ensemble where quality is the top priority and perfectly counterbalances the style of quite an \u201c<em>understated<\/em>\u201d dial.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 10\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_10.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_10\">The dial is an anthem to German simplicity\u00a0where Roman numbers have been placed at <strong>6 o\u2019clock<\/strong> and at <strong>12 o\u2019clock<\/strong>. The numbers are extremely thin, they have been crafted using a laser cutting technique followed by a <strong>galvanization<\/strong> process and they are coupled with the same-colour minutes. The <strong>minutes<\/strong> present on the yellow gold version of this timepiece are <strong>red<\/strong> and they create quite a fascinating mix with the colour of the case and the blue \u201c<em>Poire<\/em>\u201d hands.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Glashutte Original Senator Excellence Horbiter 7\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_7.jpg\" style=\"width:100%\" title=\"Glashutte_Original_Senator_Excellence_Horbiter_7\"><strong>Glash\u00fctte<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Original<\/strong> have also released a third version of this timepiece that reminds us of their famous observation watches and of some of their collections from ten years ago, the third version sports a stainless steel case, Arabic numbers and white \u201c<em>chemin de fe<\/em>r\u201d minute ring, a combination that is, however, not as visually successful as the other two versions. The case of the <strong>Glash\u00fctte Original Senator Excellence<\/strong> measures <strong>40mm<\/strong> by <strong>10mm<\/strong> and this classic three-hands is one of the most satisfying, refined, technologically advanced and original timepieces in its category currently available on the market. This could be the perfect topic of conversation to tackle if you are one of those haute-horlogerie connoisseurs that meet in an old town-centre caf\u00e9 and bring along a velvet pouch bag containing their very own classic timepiece.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">\n<\/p><div style=\"min-height: 10px;
