MeisterSinger Celebrates 25 Years With Panthero Jumping Hour Watch Reimaginging Single-Hand Aesthetic

Famed for their distinctive single-handed watches, the German horological institution, MeisterSinger, breaks tradition with a new design for its 25th anniversary. Their offering is the Panthero Jumping Hour Watch, available in three configurations, including a notable 25-piece anniversary edition, boasting a beautifully guilloché dial. The watch retains the brand’s one-handed design tradition but marries it with a new aesthetic, offering an exciting addition to MeisterSinger’s catalog.

MeisterSinger’s speciality lies in its single centrally-mounted hand timepieces, enabling an estimation of the hour by rotating around the dial once every 12 hours. However, the Panthero Jumping Hour model absorbs influence from the brand’s Salthora Meta X collection, where hours are exhibited through an aperture in the dial, with a solitary hand tracking the concurrent minutes. To achieve a more sophisticated rendition of single-handed layout, the model situates a lone minute hand at the edge of the dial.

The Panthero Jumping Hour model is available in standard black and white dials, and a limited-edition anniversary version with a silver dial displaying a glistening spiral guilloché pattern, created via a traditional manually-operated machine. All watches feature separate colors for their minute tracks, hands, and running seconds indicators to foster contrast and visual intrigue. The watch range concludes with black, white or dark brown leather straps for the standard and limited-edition models respectively, becoming a fitting tribute to 25 years of the iconic MeisterSinger brand.
