Hand engraved double swan necks. 21k gold outside rotor. Sun burst gear near rotor pivot that has some horological significances that excapes me. Only nit pick is the moon is small and need good lighting to see

·

I'm all about GO. I don't have a Pano. I have a Senator and I love it.

I voted JLC but would be happy to acquire either of these.

·

I Vote JLC, after you get that , you can lust after an a lange & sohne 🤣

·

I hate off-center dials. Not dislike, hate.

·

Cartier Tank Louis (large) in gold.

·

So I picked the GO. I’ve handled and tried on both. Love both. The finishing on the dial of the JLC is flawless but visually the GO has it in all other areas, obviously it also has the complications. Some would say the GO isn’t a dress watch because the dial is so.busy. I say hogwash. But the biggest reason here for me is that the JLC shouldn’t be an over $10k watch. Just a couple years ago it had an msrp around $7-7500i

Panomatik will probably be my next purchase I live that thing!

·

Had this through lockdown. Never got dressed up wear it still loved it with shorts and tee shirt. Just the joy of flipping it over was worth the price 😍 traded it in and just know I’m not going to be able to get another but I’ve enjoyed the watches it paid for.

I don't know why this isn't mentioned more. I see one and I think, "nope, not today Satan," and just move on.

·

I bought a Duoface however I wear it more in smart casual situations vs dress. So if we are looking at unique dress watch maybe GO? I chose JLC !

·

I love the GO, bit it's dimensions never said "dress watch" to me.

·

Neither one has any appeal to me. To be honest, I'm not sure I've ever seen a watch over about $8,000 that held any appeal.

I'll take another Omega Planet Ocean & another Aqua Terra for that price (or close to)

·

For myself, I just prefer symmetry when choosing a dress watch.

·

I love the GO (and the Lange 1), but I'd pick the JLC. My problem with the GO is that the case is a bit inelegant and slab-sided, revealing every millimeter of the watch's thickness. If you've got larger, rounder wrists, that might not matter -- you can go ahead and enjoy the great dial and movement -- but for me, a person with somewhat slim, oval wrists, it just doesn't sit right. Not that I don't have, wear, and love thicker watches, but, imo, the proportions here don't match the style.

Plus, the JLC is gorgeous, timeless, yet not remotely dull.

O.K. the Glashutte Original has some appeal. I would wear it with pride, but I still can't see me spending $10,000 on it.

I chose the GO PanoLunar as this purchase when I got a promotion.

Then 8 months later I picked up the blue dial Reverso Tribute duo.
