Ultimate divewatches. Comparing the Glashütte Original SeaQ, SeaQ PanoramaDate & SeaQ Chronograph.

[@HarrisonElmore]

That intro! The music the shots. Brilliant

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thx mate ... i take pride in those so thanks for noticing

[@paullister5560]

Thank you - great video. I own the 39.5 in blue - I had originally wanted the green or black dial but when I saw the blue in the dealer I changed my mind - the sunburst and distortion effects are simply stunning. The only things holding back my purchase were lack of caseback (now fixed), and the power reserve - in the end love for the watch overcame the PR reservation. subscribed!

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Lovely mate. Great they did an open caseback now right !? Thanks for watching.

[@wh1chw4tch]

Dang that blue is incredible! Nice vid Tom

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Yip. Amazing dials. Thanks Michael

[@Whattimeisit-s8r]

GO has just released a sapphire caseback for all collectors of the SeaQ, new and existing

[@BowlOfSalmon]

finally right ! the listened :)

[@astorbeijer9424]

Yes, a Sea-Q no-date would be awesome ❤

[@BowlOfSalmon]

so you enjoyed that mockup ? :)

[@vl507]

I’ve been eagerly waiting for this video and it didn’t disappoint, thanks. We have similar wrist size so I’m surprised the panaramic date works so well. It still looks a bit thick on the wrist roll but wears very well for the stated dimensions.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

it's not thin by any means, but just very comfortable .. i'd honestly wouldn't know if i would choose one tomorrow..... slight edge to the 39 for my wrist ... thanks for watching, and waiting !

[@MCWristWatches]

Terrifc video, Tom! My favorite one has to be the Panorama Date, it's so recognizable!

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Thanks Mirko

[@ericmoss8344]

Great review! I owned the SeaQ 39.5mm Green dial for a while... but sold it as it was just a tad small for my 8.25" wrist. I'd love to try on the panorama date, but wish they could slim the case down to ~ 13.5-14mm. They are great watches however!! Also one of the best most comfortable bracelets I've ever worn!

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thanks man. yeah I think everybody needs to decide what works best for his or her wrist in terms of "feeling it" ...

[@ummar02]

All the watches are very beautiful and I like them all. Everything about them appears balanced. The orange strap is exceptionally impressive. The blue face is very appealing to everyone. Personally, I liked the chronograph watch the most. I don't know why, but it seemed the most balanced among them all to me. Everyone has their own preferences. Please keep making videos; your videos are very motivational and inspiring. ♥️😍🥰

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thank you very much mate.. The chrono sure impressed me ... it does feel like the bigger watch but everyone able to rock stuff like the big breitlings ... well .. i'd rather be seen with these

[@coreym425]

So much to like here and while the SeaQ Pano is definitely more impressive in several ways, I am very happy with my choice on the smaller SeaQ + the PanoLunar....but man, I'd like to add that SeaQ chronograph too. Getting the blue dial would really round out my GO collection too.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

great taste ;) that is pretty close to the ideal 2 watch collection....... if I didn't know you had 999 more ;) thx for watching corey

[@seppukusushi2848]

@@BowlOfSalmon 43mm is also a little out of my comfort zone. I have a 17 1/2 inch wrist. Would a Panorama Date work for me?

[@darylwardsnyder4406]

Great review. I bought the SeaQ Panorama date in Blue on the Bracelet. I debated between the panorama date and the entry level model. But three features, that you mentioned, tipped the scale in favor of the Panorama Date. Exhibition case back, 100 hour power reserve and silicon hair spring. The bracelet is fantastic, but decided to add the khaki color twill strap on deployant buckle, and this is what I wear most of the time. Might try the orange strap in summer 2025.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

awesome choice , wear it in good health

[@dultanur]

This may be your best video yet Tom! Great work my man. The watches are insanely cool, and as you said I always thought the panorama date would be too big on me. I need to try one on, but this may be my attainable grail…

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Thanks for the kind works mate. Hope you get them grails !

[@watch_girl_life]

Another top notch review Tom. Your passion for the brand definitely shines though.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thanks Patricia ... yeah no hiding it really .. only a matter of time I guess ;)

[@watch_girl_life]

@@BowlOfSalmon that’s a bit formal 😂

[@tomleuntjens]

@@watch_girl_life haha ... it sounded wrong when i typed it too :)

[@MarioGhillani]

Last year I have bought the pano date in blue with bracelet. It is gorgeous

[@BowlOfSalmon]

congrats !

[@maritimuse9127]

Great video, as always. I am a big fan of GO and I am very much considering swapping my Seamaster for a SeaQ. The green bezel and black dial version mock-up you showed would be a definite purchase for me. Personally I would go with the SeaQ and then purchase a pano-date like you suggested. Love the video and I look forward to the next one. Maybe one on the Sixties chronograph from GO?

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thanks for the support as always.... the GO might be a step up in price over tthe seamster but would be my pick between the two.....; the chronograph wasn't coming over but I did expect some senator watcheS.. not sure if I'll do a full review on YT tho

[@VectorSearch]

If they made a no date I would immediately buy it! I’m thinking of getting the smaller seaQ or NTTD. I like that the NTTD has no date but the looks of the SeaQ matches my aesthetic more 🤔

[@BowlOfSalmon]

never go for a one watch collection ;)

[@VectorSearch]

LOL I have a BP FF, 14060M, SD4K. Am just looking for a new diver that’s not too expensive and not a Rolex, that I can take on vacations this summer!

[@carlomiguelsy1595]

Looking forward to more long form videos from the channel. Well done

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thx man... some back catalogue available to stream already ;)

[@KLucero22]

I’ve always thought the dial layout of the SeaQ 39 is very reminiscent of the Vacheron Constantin FiftySix, especially if you compare both in blue. Would be a cohesive two-watch collection

[@BowlOfSalmon]

stunning watch you mention there

[@Kbo513]

I’m glad someone noticed this. I have the Fifty Six and have a hard time committing to the SeaQ since I already have that same dial look.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

@@Kbo513 can you show me what exact reference you are talking about ? maybe I'm missing something but these are very different watches no ?

[@Kbo513]

@@BowlOfSalmon the GO doesn’t have the FiftySix sector design, but they both have the numerals and hour indices design. Hence why I opted out of the GO, since my VC and GO would look too similar.

[@RobMyself]

The 39 version all the way. Still that watch is beautiful.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Now with display caseback option 😜

[@RobMyself]

@BowlOfSalmon Yes, I saw that yesterday. They're making it very difficult not to get one!

[@sasukeam-ih2pt]

Amazing amazing brand. I wish they would do a Panoinverse or actually any Panomatic in a smaller 37 - 38mm version.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

a smaller panoreserve anything would be insane indeed... lange within budget ..... thanks for watching

[@chia-mingyang5804]

The first version of PanoReserve and PanomaticLunar are 38mm.

[@sasukeam-ih2pt]

@@chia-mingyang5804 YE, I meant in the current catalogue

[@vl507]

Got about four years until my next big purchase. Hopefully a exhibition caseback no date version will come out for the smaller seaq by then 😄

[@BowlOfSalmon]

That would be cool!

[@Whattimeisit-s8r]

The sapphire case back is now available, for existing and new collectors

[@wheelsandwatches]

Love these. Moving away from PCL was a good move. I don’t believe they have quick change straps which is stupid when you offer so many options. Also, love the blue bit so think it’s too pricey. I’ll own a sea q eventually.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

pricey .. yes .. overpriced ... idk.. these feel more artisanal and worth it somehow ? also .. not everone has one ... but I see just the name of the crown allows for the high price .... but what is the best watch ...

[@wheelsandwatches]

@@BowlOfSalmon I much prefer these to a sub but the movement need an improvement, also do they guarantee an accuracy? I prefer the clasp and brushed side case over the sub. Finally I’d love a black dial and white markers model.

[@richardwilson3364]

The thickness on the chronograph gives the impression GO arent even trying to be serious

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Quite the opposite, It’s a very serious watch. Automatic with a great power reserve and water resistance. They are not trying to make this the thinner smaller most wearable chrono no. There is an audience for these

[@vincentschneuwly9783]

Is it possible to operate the chronograph function underwater? As on the Sinn EZM 13 for exemple

[@BowlOfSalmon]

I did not have the b*lls for trying that on a loan watch ;) and I honestly dont know

[@Z-S-H]

That chrono is gorgeous but glashutte is out of my price range I'll just admire from afar 😂

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Best part about watches are the ones we dream of

[@jishnuraju9285]

Bro whats your wrist size?

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Literally shared that info on the first wrist shot.

[@jishnuraju9285]

​@@BowlOfSalmoni havent saw

[@tioo5265]

I really like this line, however GO will not be seeing any of my money until these hunks get shrunk. T)

[@BowlOfSalmon]

The 39 is pretty darn impressive

[@Kbo513]

My issues with the SeaQ besides someone already mentioning it already - it has the same dial look as my VC FiftySix, but that bezel action leaves a lot to be desired. I would rate it the same - satisfactory. The Seamaster slides too much in my opinion. The GO is grindy and tough feeling. The Submariner is still the most tactile and satisfying bezel action to me, but my Zenith Defy Extreme has been a pretty good 2nd best.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

thanks for the feedback ... About the bezel: its not tight, it locks into place, there is no play and it won't accidently knock around . so its a good bezel ... it just feels different ... grindy covers that description too for sure. I see how the VC also has numerals .. but I don't feel that these are similar watches or something ....

[@MsFleshgear]

Die Lynette ist mit 3 Ceramickugeln gelagert . Das ist einzigartig, langlebige und knackig beim drehen . Einfach perfekt .

[@ads-porewealth96]

I just cant get onboard with the hands. They look stupid …. A child drew that arrow. Otherwise, so nice! Great vid bro xx

[@BowlOfSalmon]

it all makes a GO diver a GO diver , brings personality.... plenty of others around if this isn't your thing really ... I'm glad to see diversity in everything , and yes, I also would love to draw my own watch based on 50 other divers sometime

[@TheArkwhaler]

I see what you mean but the arrow on the minute hand is really easy to see, day or night, and helpful with aging eyes.

[@StagguhLee]

Unfortunately, G.O. seem to have a reputation for excessive service costs and long times.

[@BowlOfSalmon]

Personal experience? I’ve no idea or experience on this so I can’t really comment either … just what I had in front of me what really impressive

[@TheArkwhaler]

Maybe depends on the market. The U.S.A. service center does decent turnaround I have heard.

[@marlowkaplan3584]

21 mm lugs. That's annoying

[@BowlOfSalmon]

can't remember :) i've built an arsenal of straps by now .. nothing that can't be overcome...

[@DigitalPRCourses]

No way lug to lug on panorama date is 47.5 unless they recently made them smaller . It’s 51.5…

[@BowlOfSalmon]

can't recheck for you i'm afraid... really didn't feel like it was as long as the top of my wrist.. there is a reason it wears smaller and that is because of that.

[@tvo6453]

I have never been a fan of big arabic numerals on the dial. Glashutte needs to make a version without them

[@vl507]

I’m a fan of the lumed Arabic numerals

[@BowlOfSalmon]

i can see why this can be an aquired taste... i just feel there are so many dive watches out there already that don't have these .. so luckily plenty of choice for everyone... thanks for watching

[@Griffin1994]

Absolutely not. It’s just different from lume plots or batons like every other dive watch. Either like it or not. Can always buy another submariner, BB58, seamaster, or any homage

[@SpaceG95]

They are phenomenal and well executed indexes that stand out from the typical

[@ollik8192]

I love the numerals, but I would have to try these to get over the size of the watches.
