Do you ever see a watch and think no way

And then it just sticks with you? Sings to you?






This is all Jocke’s fault for replying to my other thread about the PanoReserve. I am now really quite taken with this piece. Everything about it sings to me after I all but ignored it.

Grey industrial look, great size, finishing is outstanding. What really floored me and we all know this, when you hack a movement the balance wheel stops. Except on most watches that is on the underside even if the watch has a display back.

On the PanoInverse I hacked the watch and the beautiful balance wheel just stopped. I knew it would but found it fascinating to see anyway

Really close to grabbing this one as I love all the interesting and unique things about a watch with the movement flipped upside down.

I’ll keep everyone posted

Congrats OP, that timepiece sings!

PS: Jocke needs to be banned! He 'made me' order a Laine for my wife. :)

That GO is awesome. My brother in law wanted a nice watch for medical graduation and he ended up choosing the regular non inverse blue dial. You try it out in person? The only thing that gets me is they are terrible to get a hold of, been trying to get info on sending one in to get serviced and they didn't respond after 5 attempts. Great watches though

I have looked at the PanoReserve many times and still like that one. I have had both on my wrist, I feel that the PanoInverse is more special and different.

Sorry to hear about the service, I have another Glashutte and love it, never had need of service.

Great watch, enjoy! I love GO.

That always happens to me - the watches (and women) that I initially can’t stand are the ones that I end up loving the most in the long term.

I really apologize for all the divorces I have created, but I only mean well when I want to be involved in you getting a decent watch.

Thanks Jocke amazing shots as always and this piece has really grabbed me like no other.

Jocke, was that the original strap it came with or is that someone else’s work? That strap is fantastic. I am looking at the current nubuck grey which is nice but I like your strap more.

That is the original grey nubuck I have on my watch.

My Muse thanks you Jocke, as about once every week or three she mentions how much she's looking forward to her lovely Laine timepiece to match my (upcoming) MB&F Willie Wonka.

BTW: The Torsti Laine is set to arrive a month or two before Willie, so as a good gentlemen ALWAYS says / does, "Ladies ALWAYS come first."

Thanks for the encouragement everyone, especially Jocke with those incredible images. My wife says to knock it off.

I am thrilled with this and will be doing a review once I am home and can get better images and spend time noting performance. This is a great addition to my ever changing collection. More changes to come as I pare down and sell even more but I like the direction I am heading and beginning to enjoy my watches more. Staying focused is serving me well and I have not regretted a single change.

Yes, the Reverso. I abhorred square or rectangle watches, then a sales associate urged me to try on a Reverso after trying on the MUT. Now I can't get the reverso out of my head, I should have bought it on the spot... but I didn't.

And yes, Jocke is an enabler. I really want a GO SeaQ thanks to his great photos.

Yes the SEAQ is great, if it were a GMT I would dump my BLNR in a heartbeat
