MeisterSinger has unveiled the "Edition Unitas 1Z Blue" as the second model in its 25th-anniversary celebration series. Following its predecessor, this model also features a Unitas movement and, for the first time in the brand's history, a dial made with colored enamel. In honor of the 25th anniversary, only 25 pieces will be sold worldwide.
The brand's first ever colored enamel dial
MeisterSinger, a German brand renowned for its single-hand watches, is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. To commemorate this milestone, the "Edition Unitas 1Z Blue" has been unveiled as an anniversary model.
Manual winding (ETA/Unitas Cal.6497). 17 jewels. 21,600 vibrations/hour. Power reserve approximately 46 hours. Stainless steel case (40mm diameter). 5 ATM water resistance. Limited edition of 25 pieces worldwide. 1,430,000 yen (tax included).
This model is a new variation of the "Edition Unitas 1Z," inspired by the brand's first enamel dial model. The highlight is the cool light blue enamel dial. This is the first time in the brand's history that MeisterSinger has used colored enamel, giving it a more modern feel compared to its predecessor.
This dial is made by applying finely ground enamel powder to a copper base and repeatedly firing it at a high temperature of approximately 800°C. The skill of a craftsman proficient in this technique is essential, and the finished dial has a unique, smooth texture and excellent resistance to aging.
The movement, continuing from its predecessor, is the Cal. 6497, also known as Unitas. The case housing it is designed to accommodate the large diameter of the Unitas movement, while keeping the overall size to a more conventional 40mm in diameter. The case back is also transparent and opens wide, allowing a view of the powerful 21,600 vibrations per hour beating of the balance wheel.
