"Only a watch can summarise so much style, attitude to life and self-image in just a few square centimetres. Every glance at it is a place of self-assurance: Who am I, what do I like?"
- MeisterSinger founder and managing director Manfred Brassler
The art of watchmaking for friends of the extraordinary
A MeisterSinger single-hand watch is a high-precision mechanical measuring instrument and works just as accurately as any mechanical two- or three-hand watch.
Calculated over a day with its 86,400 seconds, a MeisterSinger has a precision value of 99.99%.
Without compromise, MeisterSinger only uses Swiss movements that are specially modified for the single-hand mechanism.
On a volume of two €2 coins placed one on top of the other, 130 movement parts, some of them tiny, interlock.
Year after year, MeisterSinger attracts attention with astonishing technical solutions and complications. These include movements developed in-house and modular developments such as the hour strike and the large central moon phase.
MeisterSinger is the expert in mechanical single-handed technology and a world leader in its field.
"There was something calming about adopting a timekeeping method reminiscent of the 16th century, when timekeeping was so inaccurate that a minute hand would have served little to no purpose, and time itself was not managed like today, but enjoyed."
"With an elegant, slowly gliding 12-hour display and an ethos that emphasizes living in the moment rather than tracking every last second, MeisterSinger’s distinctive designs hearken back to the medieval birth of mechanical watchmaking."
"The brand’s identity is strong and consistent in a way that few other watchmakers’ are, with their single-hand designs holding a monopoly over that specific niche."
"And whenever MeisterSinger feels the urge to let loose a little, it has a certain knack for adding complexity in a highly original way too."
"It's always impressive to see the variety of models that can be created when you concentrate on one-hand watches like MeisterSinger does."
"At MeisterSinger, it can't be down to a fear of the complicated or problems with precision. The brand uses precise mechanical movements from Sellita, which are converted for use with just one hand."
"This movement, which is by no means commonplace, is not only a delight for technology fans, but also for people with an eye for detail."
