MeisterSinger Monograph, 43 mm

Monograph, 43 mm - The world’s first single-handed watch with a timing function! In 1821, the first chronograph changed the way me measure time. In 2007, MeisterSinger changed the chronograph: The Monograph is the first single-handed watch with a timing function. As usual, the central hand measures time in 5-minute increments. The three timing hands, the central second-hand, the smaller 30-minute-hand, and the 12-hour-hand, move across subtly colored contrasting dials.

“The clock, not the steam engine, is central to the Industrial Revolution”, wrote American historian Lewis Mumford in his history of culture in 1934. Indeed the clock has utterly altered our way of life. Precise measurement of time is a matter of course for us nowadays, even if that is not always perceived in a positive sense. Measurement of time affects our daily lives in countless ways. It is the adverse aspects of this development that MeisterSinger watches seek to counteract. They convey a sense of peace amid the bustle of the modern age.

MeisterSinger Unomatik 45 mm

The first series of MeisterSinger single-handed watches with automatic mechanism expresses a unique aesthetic. These watches convey their character as a measuring instrument to its ultimate limit. The precise markings evoke millimetre accuracy, as does the power reserve indication. The large dial is of convincing clarity, the 45-mm casing is even chunkier than other MeisterSinger watches. This marriage of consistent directness and pure emotion combine to fashion a remarkable look.

MeisterSinger ED205

MeisterSinger has used a Glashütte Feintaster from 1890 as the template for an antique-style watch that retains the full vigour of the past.

With silver galvanised and hand-engraved dial, the watches exemplify the time-honoured techniques of the watchmakers of those days, concentrating as they did fully upon the functioning of their handiwork.
