MeisterSinger presents pioneering one-hand watch with ceramic dial

With the "24H Enamel" edition, limited to 25 pieces, the Münster-based brand celebrates its philosophy of a relaxed approach to time on a shimmering ceramic dial with a historical feel.

Instead of circling the dial twice a day, the blued needle hand here completes only a single rotation within 24 hours. The entire day is thus presented to the viewer at a glance – as a continuous flow. The single-hand watch also features a compass function.

25 unique pieces with a historical face

To produce the ceramic dial, several firing processes at approximately 800 degrees Celsius are required. It is coated several times with the finest enamel dust, fired in special kilns, and slowly cooled to achieve a flawless finish.

The back also needs to be machined to avoid tension and stabilize the dial. Cleanliness and freedom from dust are crucial for the quality of the final product. All of this results in a great deal of work and almost even more waste. Only a portion of the painstakingly crafted dials are considered for the final production of the watch. This means that each one is truly unique.

The dial design follows the historic "365" style, characterized by elegant decorative lettering and finely drawn typography. The uniquely designed hour hand is carefully heat-blued.

Inside the 40-millimeter stainless steel case, the Swiss automatic caliber Sellita SW330 works, visible through the six-screwed glass case back.

Groundbreaking MasterSinger

The "24H Enamel" edition can also serve as a compass – in daylight. The four cardinal directions E for east, S for south, W for west, and N for north are printed at 6, 12, 18, and midnight.

If you position the clock horizontally, i.e., parallel to the ground, with the hand pointing toward the sun, the printed cardinal directions reliably point north, south, east, and west. This timepiece thus offers orientation in a variety of ways.
