Dial
This Panthero Jumping Hour model features a sunburst finish. Its center is not placed — as is usually the case — in the middle of the dial, but precisely where the elevated minute hand originates. As a result, the play of light follows the logic of the display itself: the sunburst radiates outward from this off-center point all the way to the edge of the dial. The effect emphasizes the Panthero’s distinctive geometry and reinforces its unique visual identity. The blue version combines the sunburst dial with a silver-toned minute track, minute hand, and sun wheel. The composition feels pure and harmonious, subtly hinting at the precision within.
Case
It is framed by a new, slim 40.5 mm stainless steel case, whose narrow bezel makes the dial appear almost frameless. From the front, it becomes clear: the case rim is extremely slim, acting only as the stage curtain for the magnificent architecture of the dial. The case also reveals a strikingly individual character in the refined finishing of its side flanks and in the exclusive, spiral-shaped crown. The interplay of polished and brushed surfaces creates a particularly harmonious overall impression. The Panthero Jumping is water-resistant to 5 bar and features a domed sapphire crystal over the dial.
Movement
Inside, the specially developed MS-JH-01 calibre, based on the Sellita SW300, powers the watch with a sophisticated jumping-hour module. The intricate workings of the movement are revealed to the eye through the exhibition glass back. The rotor’s silhouette is inspired by the outline of three interlocking fermatas. The logo and the central ring encircling the rotor bearing are designed in sophisticated anthracite. The rotor provides the watch with a power reserve of 47 hours.
Features
As the “hero” of the MeisterSinger collection, the Panthero Jumping Hour represents the pinnacle of discerning standards, showcases exquisite craftsmanship, and claims a new flagship position within the brand’s universe. The new Panthero Jumping Hour is a thoroughly new and innovative creation, from its distinctive case and sophisticated movement through to its outstanding overall design. By developing a new jumping hour, MeisterSinger once again showcases its spirit of technical innovation and delivers yet another compelling example of outstanding, harmonious design. With the new sunburst dial variations, the MeisterSinger Panthero Jumping Hour once again demonstrates its versatility. They highlight that this timepiece is not only a new complication within the brand’s portfolio, but a fully independent design concept — and an invitation to read and experience time in a calm, unhurried way.
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.
