Moritz Grossmann
Benu Heritage Art in Time Edition MG-003628

The ART IN TIME edition is a rare luxurious dressed watch just launched for fans of cool steel cases. The BENU series marks the beginning of a new era for the Moritz Grossmann brand. It embodies the DNA of the Glashütte manufacture: schönstes deutsches Handwerk. The purple “aubergine” dial is one of the hallmarks of sublime artisanship that is appreciated by connoisseurs of guilloché and praised for its unique look. The sublime face made by Benzinger features discreet hours markers. 

Through an ample, non-reflective sapphire-crystal display back, the calibre 100.1 movement reveals itself to aficionados of fine timekeeping instruments as a fusion of the arts. Subtly proportioned components in untreated German silver with different types of finissage constitute the individual levels. As was the case in Glashütte pocket chronometers, the movement consists of a main plate and a 2/3 plate precisely spaced apart with two posts and the barrel bridge. Raised gold chatons and pan-head chaton screws add three-dimensional accents. The brilliant glitter of hand-polished chamfers on going-train wheels and the edges of levers and springs resides in the depths of the movement as well. Several innovations in the calibre 100.1 movement are noteworthy in the ways they further optimise the handling convenience and functional reliability. The newly designed Grossmann balance can now be crafted in-house in its entirety. A further modification of the Glashütte stopwork created space for the Grossmann winder with pusher.
