The satin-finished stainless steel Benu Power Reserve features a deep blue dial. The stainless steel hands are filled with white HiCeram resin, ensuring excellent visibility on the dial. The HiCeram resin contains UV-resistant ingredients, firmly adhering to the stainless steel base. The filled HiCeram resin is carefully hand-polished to the same thickness as the stainless steel components, resulting in beautiful, easy-to-read hands unique to Moritz Grossmann.

Manual winding (cal. 100.2). 26 jewels. 18,000 vph. Power reserve approximately 42 hours. Stainless steel (diameter 41mm, thickness 11.65mm). Limited to 12 pieces of each color worldwide. 320 million yen (excluding tax).

 The Benu Power Reserve's black dial, like the blue one, is crafted from solid silver and is paired with a black-coated stainless steel case, creating a new combination. The white indexes provide a striking contrast and are clearly legible.

 The unique power reserve indicator is a testament to impeccable craftsmanship and finish. The two-coloured bar indicator is controlled by a differential gear. This differential gear drives a two-coloured semicircular disc in the centre of the calibre, which in turn displays the remaining power reserve in a bar-shaped display frame located directly below the logo. When fully wound, the display is solid white, and as the mainspring unwinds, the colours increase.

 The Caliber 100.2 was developed based on the Caliber 100.1. The incorporation of a differential gear allows the remaining power reserve to be displayed. The sapphire crystal case back allows the viewer to see the movement's beautiful finish, which perfectly embodies the brand's philosophy of 'Schönstes deutsches Handwerk' - the finest German craftsmanship. The Caliber 100.2 is equipped with a cantilevered balance cock with precision adjustment screws, an optimized in-house balance wheel, and a separately removable Grossmann manual winding mechanism with pusher.

The crown and the button at 4 o'clock are made by Moritz Grossmann and feature a manual winding mechanism with pusher.

The second hand stops when you pull out the crown, and starts moving when you press the pusher below the crown.

 Grossmann's pusher-type manual winding mechanism achieves extremely accurate time setting by eliminating two common trouble-causing factors. One is to prevent dust and other foreign objects from entering the mechanism when the crown is pulled out to adjust the time, and the other is to prevent the time from being accidentally shifted when the crown is pushed back in. When the crown is pulled out, the watch switches to time-setting mode and the second hand instantly stops. The crown returns to its original position due to the force of a spring, but you can still turn the crown to set the time. When the pusher located below the crown is pushed back in, the watch starts running again and switches back to manual winding mode.
