The original MeisterSinger: №01 with hand-wound movement.
The №01 displays all the design details that characterize the entire MeisterSinger collection to this day: The functional typography with its continuous double-digit hour numerals from 01 to 12, the circumferential line structure, and the fine, needle-shaped hour hand. A watch cannot be designed more clearly, simply, and discreetly than that. The №01 has remained a highly popular model in MeisterSinger’s signature ivory look to this day.
The 43 mm diameter stainless steel case together with the domed sapphire glass protect the watch and make it water-resistant up to 5 bar. The closed case back is engraved with a pattern consisting entirely of fermatas, the MeisterSinger hallmark.
The №01 is powered by a Swiss Sellita SW210 hand-wound movement, which is specially modified for MeisterSinger’s single-hand watches. The hand-wound watch is made for people who appreciate the ritual of winding their watch once a day and are aware of how precious time is. Fully wound, the watch has a power reserve of 42 hours.
The №01 is the original MeisterSinger with which it all began. The watch has long since become an icon of time measurement and proves that good things never go out of fashion. The №01 has won both the Red Dot Design Award and the iF Design Award for its overall design concept.
Reading a Single-hand Watch
Each line in the outer circle of MeisterSinger’s single-hand watches stands for exactly 5 minutes. The hand is therefore both an hour hand and a minute hand. For example, if the hand points to the fifth stroke after ten, the time is 10:25.
The line hierarchy typical of MeisterSinger single-hand watches additionally divides the time display into half and quarter hours, thus making it easier to read off the time accurately.
