The time-only Senator Aventurine models are part of Glashütte Original’s Atelier commissions, with each watch assembled entirely by a single watchmaker.
The dials are made of aventurine glass, with metallic particles suspended within to create sparkle and shift with light, and the back of each disc is coated in black lacquer for depth.
Both watches utilize aventurine glass dials, known for their characteristic sparkle from suspended metallic particles, with each dial possessing a unique pattern.
Aventurine glass originated with Murano glassmakers in the 17th century, with metal oxides forming the glistening particles responsible for its sparkle.
The dials lack indices, and time is indicated by elegantly curved, solid gold, pear-shaped hands – white gold for the platinum model and red gold for the red gold model.
The watches feature curved, pear-shaped solid gold hands (white gold on platinum, red gold on red gold) and the brand's logo inscription.
