Oh, the thrill of a breakthrough! After three years of meticulous work, Glashütte has finally unveiled the Senator Big Date Moon Phase, equipped with some serious watchmaking magic. Let me walk you through why this watch deserves all the wrist space it can get!

First off, let’s talk about the true moon phase feature. Unlike other versions where the left button is just a decorative piece, this one actually adjusts the moon phase, just like the original. How many times have you seen a watch feature pretend to do something?! Not this time, folks!

Then we have the true big date functionality. No more squinting! Adjusted with the right button, it offers a delightful synchronous double jump (a mouthful, but it means it works smoothly). Other watches make you use the crown and present a tiny, misaligned date display. Not cool.

The dial has undergone numerous tweaks to achieve a pearlescent white effect that dazzles under sunlight. I mean, who wouldn’t want a bit of stardust on their wrist?

The balance wheel is perfectly positioned at 6 o’clock, matching the original. It’s a tiny detail, sure, but as they say, the devil is in the details, right?

Let’s geek out over the movement! Glashütte started with the 9015 movement as the base, achieving a stable and reliable engine under the hood. Trust me, it’s like having the power of a luxury car in watch form.

Finally, the thickness of 11.4mm is spot-on with the original. Other versions often balloon over 12.5mm, making them look a bit chunky. Not this sleek beauty!

Glashütte is all about quality, and this watch is a testament to their dedication. For all my fellow horology enthusiasts, this is a piece you have to see to believe!
