Glashütt Citizen of the world

Some watches live up to their name. The Senator Cosmopolite Bleu Nuit from the German manufacture based in Glashütte is a 44mm steel timepiece powered by a manufacture self-winding caliber. A nugget of technical sophistication, it features a unique complication that, rather than displaying 24hours on its dial, shows the 35 time zones currently in force by means of an original mechanism operated via a crown and two windows at 8 o’clock. This complication, infinitely more advanced than any other on the market, is uniquely visible to those discerning enough to spot feats in watchmaking and appreciate the many intricacies of a time-keeping marvel.
