How to set the Tangomat GMT and Z��rich Weltzeit For the testing of its new xi caliber, NOMOS Glash��tte has constructed several watch variants that will compete against each other. Thus, the purchaser of one of these test models will possess a watch that will (possibly) never be made in this way again. The xi calibre (named after xi, the fourteenth letter of the Greek alphabet) is an automatic movement. In order for the world time feature to function properly, you first have to set it, in other words, you have to synchronize it with your home location. To do this, take the watch in your left hand, with the dial facing you and the winding crown pointing to the right. With your right hand, touch the push-piece situated at 2 o'clock and apply a little pressure. The city ring on the dial will then rotate counterclockwise. Each press of the push-piece will move the city ring one position further. At the same time, the hour hand moves one hour ahead. If your home is in Germany (whether in Munich, Cologne, or Wuppertal, it makes no difference) keep pressing until "Berlin" is indicated on the Z��rich Weltzeit or until "BER" and "+1" respectively is indicated on the Tangomat GMT. This could vary slightly depending on which test watch variant you have. With the enclosed adjusting pin, press the small corrector at 8 o'clock. Now, only the hour hand will move��set it to the hour that is indicated on the small time disc (home time). Only at this point do you finally pull out the crown and set the exact time (i.e. hour, minute, second). Doing so will not only move the watch hands, but also the home time disc. The world time feature is synchronized! Now your watch knows where your home is. From now on, you can find out the time anywhere in the world with the help of this little push-piece above the crown. The watch will tell you what time it is, no matter where it is. The time at your current location is indicated on the watch's main dial, while your home time is shown on the smaller display situated by the 3. If you have done everything correctly (which you surely have!), you can finally forget about counting off the time difference on your fingers once and for all.

Elite “Made in Germany” watch brand Glash��tte Original gives us a sneak peak of what is to come at Baselworld 2011 (March 2011).? Unfortunately it is not a “new” model — but I’ll still take it ? The Glashutte Senator Diary made its world debut at Baselworld last year, and the watch seems to have been well received by Glash��tte enthusiasts.? Thus is makes sense this year to see Glash��tte presenting the Senator Diary in a new, white gold version with a charcoal grey dial and matching grey Nubuk leather strap.? This new color scheme looks great.? The technical accomplishment of this watch is its mechanical alarm function that can be set up to 30 days in advance. Practical?? Maybe.? Horologically impressive? Definitely (the diary appointment module alone consists of 340 components).? The price of this new Senator Diary will likely be in the $15,000-$20,000 range, which is about par for the course a brand as prestigious as Glash��tte.|||
