Glashütte Original SeaQ Review: • One of the Most Underr...
In this video, I'll take a detailed look at the PanoMaticLunar from Glashütte Original, a watch that is often compared to its (much) more expensive German relative in the ALS Lange 1. While there are certainly some similarities, I think the GO stands on its own, especially when you take a look at the incredibly well-finished caliber lurking within.

Brands like this need to be featured more on RUclips. I am sick that every other watch videos out there is in regard to Rolex.
Teddy, your pronounciation of German brand names is very much on point. Congrats!
Just one exception which you get wrong:
"Glashütte" is a compound word: "Glas" plus "Hütte". Therefore, there is a split between s and h.
It is NOT pronounced "Gla-sh-ütte" as you do. But "Glas-hütte". With an "s" as in english "glass". And not like an "sh" as in english "flash".
(The meaning of the name is quite simple and obvious: "glass hut".
The villagers were producing glass centuries before they began producing watches. Hence the name.).
Tnx mate!
This triggered me a bit too. I'd say if you can pronounce it "Glass Hoote" (like Hooters w/o the rs pronounced) would make it on point.
Hi, is there a more Germanic way to pronounce "Original" as well? I've heard it both the way Teddy is saying it, as well as with G like in "big."
@@MrTimsfilms original more like the g in big in german - yes indeed (not "orishinal"). and the a is more pronounced ("originaal")
Correct!
I ended up picking up the green dial version and it really is one of the most spectacular dials I’ve ever seen in person!
Well done. Beautiful watch. 👍
I love the green one really much! But I went to blancpain fifty fathoms in the end cause it's my dream.
@@csfynabranch4496 Amazing choice! Congrats!!
It's insane!
Beautiful choice. Are you still happy with this purchase? Thinking hard about purchasinga preowned green right now.
One of the most underrated brands of watches in the world.
100% this watch has to be up there as one of my grail watches. Super high level of ingenuity, finishing, and heritage but it’s in the realm of possibility one day, not quite today but one day
Don't sleep on GO guys! These aren't Lange knock offs just hold one in your hand and see for yourselves!
@@lukedemello2077 would love to get my hands on one for my own channel: so far I just just admired from a far. Never heard anything bad from someone who had seen one in person
I've owned 4 GOs in my life. Just great watches at fair price points for what you get. Wearing a SeaQ with a beautiful blue dial as I type this.
Teddy, this will be one of your best videos you’ve ever produced. I really appreciate the level of development that goes into the quality of your videos. And without a doubt this is a high horology classic. Keep up the great work!
Glashütte Original is my favorite German brand, the finish on their movement is spectacular, the coplanar big date is beautiful and very difficult to do. Glashütte Original SeaQ Panorama Date offers an open back leaving in the dust other divers watches that don’t show their movement and the ones that do don’t compare to the Glashütte Original details! Excellent video as always, keep the good work my friend!
Great to see more Glashutte Original content and excellent review of such an underrated watchmaker and model. I have recently ordered one and am waiting for the white dial with steel bracelet version , can’t wait to get my hands on it. Keep up the good work!
I absolutely love this watch. And your video showcases it perfectly. Such a beautiful work of art at a very reasonable price.
This is one of the only watches I have been looking at since day 1 of becoming an enthusiast. Absolutely love it, and I'm glad you made a video on it! Looks even better with the grey dial imo
Glad to see you review this one and agree I've said ever since I first saw it in person and was blown away nothing can touch it for the price. I had it on at my local jeweler and had a similar experience as you did in your office with every employee coming over to look at it and ooh and aah. I recommend people consider getting it on bracelet and ordering strap separate it gives two very different and equally stunning looks the bracelet is so well done.
Stunning piece. On my bucket list 4 sure! Thx Teddy - great content!!
What a pleasant surprise! Did not expect you to get on this watch! Definitely top 3 in my personal favorite watch list. Your video makes this watch look fantastic! Editing is spot on. The take is a bit different from how watchfinder usually does it as well, so its nice to see the variety. I have commented on your videos before saying that you mostly mention hyper popular brands such as Rolex and Tudor when you go into price range beyond 3K when you make recommendations, so this particular featured review is very awesome for a change.
Also, would love to see you extend your scope to talk more about watches around the 10K mark beyond Zenith CM sport. There are a lot of interested dress pieces at that range.
Thanks for featuring this great watch! My personal favorite is the Senator Excellence Panorama Date Moon Phase with the blue dial. The deep blue with the silver accents are fantastic!
Own exactly this model. LOVE IT!!!! Totally ROCKS guys. Great detail review Teddy.
How much did you buy it for?
@@mayankchoudhary1852 3yrs back for SG$9,000 used.
Wow great that’s a great deal, I’m considering buying this watch.
This is my grail watch! I fell in love with it the moment I saw it and I do like the dial more than the Lange. If I ever come into some money this is my choice! Thanks so much for highlighting this work of art Teddy!!
I just discovered this same GO model with a black dial, and it is absolutely stunning!
GO has always been underrated but great value for those who decide to purchase one. Great video Teddy! :)
Well put. G.O. is a terrific brand that gives you 95% of the finish and quality you expect from an ALS. But only 95%…
The movement finishing here is phenomenal. It really shines with this piece and gives most brands a run for the money even those costing much more.
And you don’t have to pay anywhere near 95% of the price of an ALS.
I own the blue dial of this exact model
Great review! And thanks to you, I just bought this watch in the blue dial. It's amazing!
I have been a big fan of GO for a while. I was first taken by the PanoMatic line. Now I am obsessed with the 70's models.
What a Beauty 😍
Love this watch, love GO! I had the PanoMaticInverse which was a more exotic version of this piece and definitely sets itself apart from Lange. You should do a review on that one at some point in the future!
Man great video, these affordable alternatives really speak volumes into Teddy’s knowledge of horology and the message he sends to watch enthusiasts that you should get the most bang for your buck and that collecting starts from the heart.
Glad you finally reviewed this piece. I picked up a green dial for my 30th earlier this year :D
Finally someone talk about glassuthe original! Beautiful finishing.
Teddy great great video !
Beautiful timepiece, and one that does not insult me by approximating Lance’s design. This piece brings the best of German watchmaking to many more enthusiasts via its price point. Thank you, Teddy, for this presentation. Well done!
The PML is an attainable grail for sure! Gorgeous piece. I won't hesitate for a nano second if GO would offer a more classic case size (37 or 36 mm diameter and thickness around 10 mm)
I had this watch for a few months. I really liked it, but found it a bit cumbersome and thick on my wrist. I also found the clasp to be uncomfortable and had difficulty getting a good fit. The thickness was finally the reason why I sold it, but you are correct, the movement finishing is magnificent. I had the grey dial and it really didn't shimmer as much as I had hoped. I hope these comments are helpful to folks thinking about this timepiece.
What size is your wrist?
Agreed it’s just too thick
It’s a beautiful watch, the detail on the movement is amazing. Love it.
Wearing the blue faced Panomaticlunar right now, and I couldn’t be happier (got it back in August of this year). The white dial is just stunning but I love the uniqueness the blue brings to the table
The opening shots always look so beautiful. Like the intro in a movie!
The blue dial GO Panomaticlunar is my favorite (affordable) dress watch. I like it way more then the Lange 1, because I hate Roman numbers on a watch.
Great review Teddy
Thanks for this video - I've watched it umpteen times which helped me so much in making my decision to buy one last weekend. Stunning timepiece to simply call it a watch would be insulting.
Your intro video is becoming very polished, well done!
Gorgeous watch. Love your videos!
I have the same Panomatic and it punches well above its weight as you rightly point out. Good video.
I love this watch. Bought it a little over a month ago and really enjoy wearing it. It is absolutely great value for money. The quality is superb.
Love this watch. I’ve seen the green dial reviewed but this dial is amazing. Love it
Love it. I treated myself this year and bought this in blue. It's distinctive and wears very well.
I own a GO SeaQ and I love it! Even without an open case back. Love the understated appeal, the stealth wealth proposition.
What many people don’t think about when comparing it to the A Lange is that you can actually get this watch. While yes they do look very similar most people will never be able to get the Lange whether it’s due to cost or availability. For those who want the look plus an amazing movement it’s the best choice while still being attainable. You aren’t getting some Amazon knock off, you are getting a truly high horology piece.
I have this watch and it is simply stunning. Fantastic review.
The movement is impressive and it communicated valuable efforts and excellent craftsmanship to me, considering getting one in platinum case.
You look sleek on the suit and can be the next bond on GO. Awesome video. Thanks
Teddy, thanks for a great review and all your other knowledgeable yet accessible content - as a newcomer to luxury watches, I've found your channel an excellent resource. Since this review suggests the GO might be strong competition for Jaeger-LeCoultre in the - dare I say - "haute horlogerie gateway" segment, It would be fascinating to see a comparative review of similarly positioned and priced GO and JLC models - for example, the GO Senator Excellence 1-36-01-01-02-30 and JLC Master Control Date 4018420. Or even of the watch you reviewed in this video with the JLC Master Control Calendar 4148420, although they are of course aesthetically very different.
I absolutely agree with your comments! I can't take the caliber of this watch out of my mind since I tried it on my wrist! I'm just thinking of buying it. I personally prefer the blue dial version.
Picked this up with the new green dial and absolutely love it, and I’ve owned Lange on several occasions. I wear primarily high-end sports watches and couldn’t justify $50- $70K on a dress watch, hence the Pateks & Lange’s had to go. This reference is the answer, as well as JLC. I do hold an F.P. Journe CS in Rose, but I’m a friend of the LA boutique and must own a Journe at all times. Great video as it’s how I feel about the piece 100%. By the way, the JLC 20mm x 18mm fit this piece & deployant perfectly and those are always available in many colors 🐊
Hey Teddy, I saw a great video of the factory...truly impressive!
Nearly bought one in 2016, for the Nomos Orion 38 datum - still on my radar - great watch
Bought the yellow gold - green dial - green strap version yesterday. Love it!!
I really love this model, and GO in general. A bit too thick for my taste at 12.7mm, and my choice would therefore be the PanoReserve at 11.7mm, even if it doesn't have the micro-rotor movement and just a manual winding one.
Just a few weeks ago when starting to look for a new ordinary watch I stumbled upon your channel. I have already bought a few Seikos since then but thanks to you I have luxuary pieces like this GO on my watch list I wouldn‘t even have considered just days ago. And just this week I pulled the trigger on a vintage Cartier Tank Paris from the 60s. FOR MY WIFE! Thanks for ruining my bank account! ;)
Good strategy :)
Really great video, Teddy! I would also love to see a video, and your take, on the Frederique Constant Moonphase watches. I really love this type of complication, and this brand has some models that I could save up for 😅
This was great. I have a a Senator, and while that is not at this level, I’m happy to see profiles of this type. More content/ videos of lines like Zenith, JLC, Panerai, IWC, & ML would be well received IMHO.
I have enjoyed my GO seventies for a number of years, solid craftsmanship and a seriously good looking watch, might add a second GO in the near future.
I am so happy to have a GLASHÜTTE-ORIGINAL PANOMATIC RESERVE in Stainless steel
Excellent review of the next watch I am considering buying. It would have been perfect showing the blue and the grey dials as alternatives.
I saw the green one live last week, it is the prettiest green watch I have seen. Ever.
One of my favorite brands. I’m so tired of this model being called a “poor mans’ Lange”. Thanks for not calling it that Teddy. I think some sort of border around the date window would be fabulous, but of course that would resemble the ALS even more. I love that haven’t abandoned brands for which you aren’t always an AD. You are a class act.
It's a homage. The lange 1 is too original to call the GO a unique watch.
The moon should be where the date is, the semi circle facing the dial edge.
The date should be where the moon is.
2 Balance clocks are nice but neither look as good as the Lange 1 engraving.
It's too thick and a little big for the style.
The lange movement is something else and the dial has perfect balance.
You're not a poor man owning this but you're better off with something more original. JLC ultra thin moon or step up to a lower Lange.
You're best off with something
@@Jay-xr3sb lol... a homage 🤦🏼♂️
This is so stupid
@@tobias8357 I know right, why not be a little more original. A bit like zenith with a too close to the daytona.
They bit have a history but you need to have an awareness of what is out there and how it will be precieved, unless you want to be the lower cost option.
Unless
@@tobias8357 honeslty waiting for the right styled and sized GO. They aren't there yet.
@@Jay-xr3sb I think you misunderstood me.. I ment that ot was stupid to say that GO lunamatic is a homage... sure it reminds one of the Lange 1 but its just like saying the omega seamaster is a homage to rolex submariner because its black and has a 120 click bezel... GO and A.lange is the two top germen brands in that segment with la ge being the clear number one, but of course there will be watches reminding you of others.. I personally don't think it is a homage, but a great alternative to the lange 1 and perhaps the best choice for an entry into high horology and time pieces a step above omega, tudor, breitling and Rolex.
And just so we are on the same page, you di know rhat if it wasn't for zenith.. the rolex daytona wouldn't be a thing today right??
I watched Teddy's review (as well as quite a few others) when researching this timepiece. I finally made the leap and received my GO PanoMaticLunar yesterday. All I can say is "wow," I am 100% pleased with the purchase. While Teddy's videography and production values are top-notch, none of the online reviews and pictures really do it full justice - it is simply incredible - as Teddy points out in the vid, the fit and finish for a piece at this price point (even considering it is steel vs. precious metal) is 2nd to none (IMO). I would say to anyone who is remotely considering adding this watch to their collection, go ahead and take the plunge, you will not regret it!
did you buy GREEN dial - RED GOLD with green strap GO?
Would you say it looks too big on a 6.25 inch wrist?
Got new $16350
6.5 inches here, looks great !@@yusufbest4475
@varunparkash9007 - no, I have the same reference as in Teddy's review - white dial w/black alligator strap - it's a very good looking piece.
Thanks for this great Video Teddy. 🤗👍👍
Totally gorgeous watch. Still out of my price range, but just beautiful.
What a great, informative review. I love this brand, I love the Sea Q, I love the PanoMatic. I would buy a Sea Q over a Submariner any day of the week (assuming the budget were there) and I know that I will never own a Lange und Sohne, but the PanoMatic is reasonable enough that it can be an aspirational watch on a 5-10 year time horizon. Very cool, in depth review.
love this watch. at first I thought it too big and thick but having a second look, with lug to lug only being around 47mm, I think I can handle it. On my want list. Oh, love that the date wheels are on the same plane. Something I wish Lange would do.
Thanks for highlighting the GO brand and the brief history of Glashutte in the watch industry. I am wondering about the design of why does GO and A. Lange make the watch face a subset of the dial? Is it German styling or is there a specific reason it does not fill out the complete dial area?
The Glashutte Senator Diary is my favorite GO watch. Real mechanical alarm sound for an obtainable price.
Have been waiting thast one for a long long time 😇
Love it! Love it! Love it! Saw a green dial version recently that would be pick of colours.
Awesomeness, I had the pleasure of visiting them in Glashutte. Along with Lange they are exceptional. I have a Nomos another great German watch.
Gorgeous watch...reminds me of a true gentlemen's dress watch. I have been considering the Longines Heritage 1940, but after seeing this watch, I think I should continue to save my pennies until I can pull the trigger on this beauty....great video and review...
Just bought the green dial version on the back of your review. No regrets, absolutely love it.
Not a big fan of gold usually but on this watch it's a must in my opinion. Anyway, great piece as always by Glashutte, which is indubitably a phenomenal brand for many reason (caliber, finishing, overall quality, price /value ratio). Thanks for this nice video.
You’ve brought out the GO fans in the comments. Count me among them!
I am in LOVE with this watch, gotta have it, thanks Teddy!
Although I'm a huge Rolex Submariner fan , owning a few different subs , I purchased a SeaQ 43mm, about 4 yrs ago. I ended up selling that watch and proceeded to kick myself in the ass for doing so . I just picked up another SeaQ about 3 months ago. This time I bought the 39mm. Really love that watch ..Glashutte Original makes some of the nicest , high horology watches around . Great video Teddy.
Preach - I've had 3 SeaQs. I had a black dial 39.5mm and 43mm. The Panorama date was just a bit too large. I guess I always wanted the blue dial so I traded them both away and now have a 39.5mm blue dial. Fit is perfect- dial is stunning.
@@yankeesandgiants1886 congrats bro !!! They truly are an awesome watch !!!!
Looks amazing!
I own a Senator Panorama Date and a SeaQ. Both are outstanding watches, punching far above their weight category (I mean price category). Definitely JLC/Moser level of quality at a slightly lower price. Definitely a great option for the watch enthusiasts.
I think the title of this video says it perfectly: sooo much more than an ALS alternative!
Love the Heinens product placement
It is pronounced ‘Glaass-Huteh-Origuinaal’. And this brand deserves this great review.
THE Perfection 😍
thanks Teddy
beautiful watch.... I am not into dress watch but this one is amazing....
I'm planning on gifting myself one for my retirement! The white dial one! Can't wait...only 5 months away!
These are going to skyrocket in value. All it takes is one rapper to start wearing one.
The old east german GUBs are pretty damn spectacular too, up with Raketa, Vostok, and Pobeda in terms of eastern bloc watchmaking.
Never did anything as complicated as Poljot did though.
What a beauty❤️❤️❤️
What an exquisite watch!
This has been a long under appreciated brand. Great video.
I’ve loved this brand, and this watch (especially the manual power reserve version) for years. I mean decades! And suddenly just NOW recently there are many reviews of this specific watch.
Many reviews recently??? Where
@@juniorjr5328 this isn’t the only *recent* reviews. I just saw another one just a few days ago. For a not very well known brand, having more than one reviews in a few days is shocking!
@@jiajianhou426 ….? Which brand isn’t well know under the major watch conglomerate
A beautiful piece indeed. A bit thick but considering the complications it’s understandable.
High hand quality and finishing. Could be interested in but the price just stopped me there. 😬
Stunning watch and at that price, very compelling
Great review
Golden ratio. Sounds so much better than simply phi. Irrational as there is no difference, pun intended. I also went with the green dial. Awesome. Thanks for the video on this model.
What are your thoughts on the Nomos Lambda? I know most variants are over 10k. But I think it might be an interesting watch to mention in the context of this video. Just interested to see what you think and what the audience thinks.
It would be great if you would mention what watch you're wearing in the beginning of each video. It makes for some great extra content, as we get to see the watch on the hand from a more "normal" perspective. Thanks
Teddy the goat delivers again. Lad could you do a list of radio controlled watches?
I so want this watch in green o wow it just looks so beautiful
I bought this watch a year ago. I was a little concerned as all the marketing images show a silver / white face colour when in fact it is closer to a champagne hue.
Overall it is a beautiful piece and my favourite in my collection.

A brief comparison with the manual movement of the Panoreserve would have been nice
