MEISTERSINGER
MEISTERSINGER IS “ MEISTERSINGULAR ”
MeisterSinger watches are notable for their display of time using a single hand . Longer than a typical hour hand , it reaches to the perimeter of the dial allowing a quick reference of the time with an unusual chapter ring showing five-minute hash marks as opposed to the more typical one and five-minute marks .
According to the brand ’ s press release , their Unomat is the most robust execution of this singular design . Rated water resistant to 30ATM and bolstered with a screw-down crown protected by steel “ shoulders ”, the Unomat is a mechanical dress watch that can take on the field as well as a night on the town .
These two new variants in blue and green contrast the white indices and double-digit numerals . Super-LumiNova graces the singular hand as well as the numerals for easy night reading .
Inside the 43mm stainless steel case beats a Selitta SW400 shielded against magnetism by soft iron where even the brass dial is mated with soft iron to fully ensconce the movement in a protective anti-magnetic cage . Retail price is $ 2,395
