The coin has the 2 sides>>>>>
This is valid even Glashütte Original PanoMaticLunar too. The first model is a bit smaller and sportier, the current a bit bigger
and more elegant. I have the luck that will not have to choose because both are in my box. The new wins for the day but the old will always have it's place in my collection.

I prefer the new one and agree it's the more elegant. Very nice to have both. It's a nice photo too Jocke. Cheers

Tough choice, although I prefer the hands on the older edition " no lume " would look
perfect to me on the new edition :) |

Beautiful side bye side shot.
I like the newer style better. However, I think the old style had a more balanced dial layout. On the new one, the date seems to be a bit too close to the hour/minute dial. I never noted that before, but now that I see them side by side... |

Both are keepers, but if I had to choose, I'd go for the newer model primarily due to the larger diameter.

great pic! I prefer the dial of the newer version, but the case proportions of the older version. That'd be a perfect combo.

Great side-by-side pic- I would happily wear either but tend to lean toward the new model.

I prefer the older model, the contrast of the decorated dial border makes the dial "pop" a little more.
Does the moon really look more reflective on the newer model, or is the difference just due to lighting and reflections? |

Very nice. I lean slightly towards the older one for proportions.
