The watches also share the in-house automatic chronograph Caliber 37-24, which offers flyback functionality, the oversized Panorama Date, and a silicon balance spring. Beating away at 28,800 VpH, the caliber provides a contemporary 70 hours of power reserve. The most glaring departure from the current Senator Chronograph Panorama Date is the removal of the 12-hour totalizer at 12 o’clock, which offers more space for Glashütte Original’s logo and for the power reserve previously hidden in the small-seconds subdial. Movement finishing, as with all of Glashütte Original’s watches, remains detailed and attractive, with Glashütte striping and contrasting blued screws. A slightly modified rotor design, with even more skeletonization, completes the look through the exhibition caseback.
Both the new Senator Chronograph and Senator Chronograph Navigator are priced at $17,100 on a steel bracelet, while versions on a textile or alligator leather strap are priced at $16,100.
