A watch is not just a tool for telling time, it is a symbol of brand and craftsmanship. Among many luxury brands, why does Glashütte Original stand out in terms of design and craftsmanship? This article will give you an in-depth understanding of the unique features of this “Senator Excellent Big Date and Moon Phase” watch, especially its substantial rose gold case and top-notch movement, which will definitely give you a new understanding of the choice of luxury watches!

Watch design details and craftsmanship

In the luxury market, watches are an important consumer product, and their design details and craftsmanship directly affect consumers’ purchasing decisions. Of course, famous watches put the brand first, and consumers will form a fixed understanding of certain brands of watches. However, in addition to the brand, consumers will also pay attention to the design and craftsmanship of the watch when purchasing a watch.

In order to control costs, some brands even use hollow gold cases directly. Although the appearance looks good, the watch is overall light and has no sense of weight at all when worn on the hand. Consumers may not be able to tell it when they buy it, but after using it for a period of time, especially those with a certain degree of recognition, they will notice the fishiness.

Glashütte’s original gold watches are made of very solid materials. Take the “Congressman Excellent Large Calendar and Moon Phase” watch as an example. Its shell is made of 18K rose gold and is very heavy. You can tell at a glance that it is not a hollow gold shell. Even if it is a gold watch, Glashütte Original will never cut corners. Even for the steel case model with the lowest public price, the materials and craftsmanship are very satisfactory.

From the dial to the movement, most of the processes are done by hand, which is very rare in this era of machine production. Handmade production not only ensures the consistency of the product, but also enhances the beauty and artistry of the product.

The “Member of Excellence Large Calendar Moon Phase” is very unique in its dial design. The upper left is a high-precision moon phase display, while the lower right is a large calendar display. The adjustment of the large calendar is very simple and can be done only through the crown, which also improves the aesthetics of the watch.

Although many consumers think that buying a watch is buying time, this is obviously not the psychology of all consumers. Some consumers value the value of the watch as a work of art more, while some consumers value the appreciation space of the watch.

Price/performance ratio of famous watches

The public price of Glashütte’s original “Congressman’s Excellent Large Calendar and Moon Phase” rose gold model is 171,500 yuan, while the public price of the steel case model is 88,500 yuan. Among many famous watch brands, this kind of pricing is quite rational, especially considering the top German movement this watch is equipped with.

The 36 automatic movement is considered one of the top movements in German watches. It not only has advanced technology, but also has exquisite decoration. The power reserve of the movement has reached 100 hours, which is already quite outstanding among similar products.

Moreover, Glashütte Original has also upgraded the movement, so that we can see many new design elements in appearance. These elements not only improve the beauty of the movement, but also enhance the stability and durability of the movement.

Some consumers may say that 88,500 yuan for a watch with a steel case is already very expensive, so why is it said to be cost-effective? Because when consumers buy gold watches, they no longer simply look at the price, but look at the actual gold content and cost-effectiveness.

Glashütte’s original “Member of Excellence Outsize Calendar and Moon Phase” uses 18K rose gold, but many brands of gold watches on the market can’t even reach 18K. Even gold-plated watches are only plated with 1 micron at most. Consumers will know it at a glance with a magnifying glass.

And no matter how good-looking a gold-plated watch is, its golden shell will eventually fall off as time goes by, revealing nothing but worthless stainless steel. Glashütte Original uses real gold to create wrist art for consumers. Even if there is room for appreciation in the future, even if it has collection value in the future, it still has a sense of weight when worn on the hand.

When consumers choose gold watches, in addition to paying attention to the brand, they are more concerned about the actual gold content and cost performance. The rational pricing of Glashütte’s original “Congressman’s Excellent Large Calendar and Moon Phase” is already considered the king of cost-effectiveness among famous watches.

Even though the price of gold has risen sharply now, the public price of a famous watch like the Rolex Daytona is only 420,000, and it is said that the actual gold content behind it is less than half a catty.

Conclusion

Glashütte’s original “Congressman’s Excellent Large Calendar and Moon Phase” shows extremely high standards in design, craftsmanship and cost-effectiveness. Its solid gold content and reasonable pricing give it a position that cannot be ignored among famous watches. Do you think such a watch is worth investing in?
