MeisterSinger presents the first three watches in its new Bronze Line

Bronze for unique individuals

MeisterSinger watches show the time with one single hand – their owners don’t allow them- selves to be rushed. The display principle is inspired by that of early tower clocks, the design features purely functional typography and the consistent use of double digits to indicate the hours is reminiscent of historical instruments. With the new Bronze Line, MeisterSinger un- derscores the instrumental character of its timepieces with three watches, each with its own unique character, in a case made of this traditional material.

Valuable instruments

Robust and weatherproof, bronze was for a long time the ideal casing for scientific instru- ments and devices, whether in seafaring or in the field of medicine. And as metals from vari- ous regions have been melted together to make bronze, it also stands for interaction, long journeys, and possibly worldly sophistication. However, despite its high resilience, time tends to leave its mark on bronze surfaces. The fact that a bronze case is not only capable of reliably protecting a watch over a long period, but also reveals its age, was another reason for MeisterSinger to craft three of its most successful models in bronze. The choice of the color of the dial is quite striking. The historical case material, the numerals and the hand in “Old Radium”, and the instrument-like red tip of the hand provide a contrast to the deep blue sunburst finish of the dial. Hence, even when the bronze gradually ages, the watch will never look like a museum piece, but simply show the history and tell the stories of its owner.

Three different versions

Just as the stainless steel versions of the three MeisterSinger models differ from one an- other, they also have their own unique character when encased in bronze:

The No.03 is a MeisterSinger classic model with its understated appearance and the unadorned clarity of its dial, and has already won prestigious design awards. Despite its im- posing 43-millimeter diameter, it is a timepiece of simple elegance – but also a genuine eye- catcher in the bronze version. The reverse side of the watch features a sixfold screwed steel back with a glass exhibition window that provides an excellent view of the Swiss auto- matic movement. The No.03 in bronze comes with a hand-sewn calfskin watchstrap in dark brown and a bronze buckle. The single-hand watch will be available from April.

The Metris is a young, robust companion for any time and any place – for the office or the beach. Perhaps this particular model of the Bronze Line is more likely to pick up a few small scars on the case and a patina from outdoor use – after all, it is water-resistant up to 20 bar. The contrast between these signs of ageing and the sunburst blue dial are therefore all the more interesting. The multifaceted structure of the case and the opulent blue dial make the Metris an eye-catcher in any situation, even if the gala calls instead of the wilderness. The bronze case of the Metris has a diameter of 38 millimeters and a sixfold screwed stain- less steel back. The watch is powered by a Swiss automatic movement. The Metris in bronze comes with a dark brown calfskin watchstrap and a bronze buckle and goes on sale in April.
