Mühle Glashütte Limited Special Editions History
The Mühle name within Germany has been in business since 1869, with Robert Mühle starting his own business manufacturing precision measuring devices. These tools were used by watch companies within Glashütte, and his work was so highly regarded that Robert Mühle was awarded The Gold Medal of the City of Dresden in 1896. The business continued to flourish, and expanded their offerings into the automotive space, manufacturing speedometers and dash clocks for automobiles. Unfortunately in 1945, the family business was dismantled in the aftermath of World War II.
Hans Mühle, Robert’s grandson, was able to re-establish the family business after returning to Glashütte in 1945. Classified as a refugee, it was difficult for him to rightfully claim parts of the family business, but he was able to begin manufacturing precision instruments again. It was not until 1972 that the brand was nationalized again, and absorbed into the government held businesses. During this period, the Mühle family began their direct involvement in manufacturing wrist watches as part of the "VEB Glashütter Uhrenbetriebe" (frequently known as GUB) in 1980. In 1990, with the reunification of Germany, Hans took the role of managing director of GUB, and continued to expand into various timekeeping devices, including nautical clocks used for navigation. In 1996, Mühle Glashütte produced their first wrist watch, forming the beginnings of the brand we know today.
Now in its sixth generation of family owned operation, Mühle Glashütte continues to be an independent watch brand, manufacturing watches, including developing their own in-house movement.
To mark the 30th anniversary of the brand’s modern incarnation which started after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1994, Mühle Glashütte released a number of limited models to celebrate this occasion. With unique blue dials and accented features to highlight the brand’s 30th anniversary, these limited models are a celebration of the brand’s success and innovation.
To celebrate Mühle Glashütte’s partnership with the German Navy Search and Rescue team, they released a number of their S.A.R. models in titanium in 2022. Each model features a case back engraving paying tribute to the various ships associated with this special military unit.
There is also the Sportivo Power Chronograph First edition. A limited edition of 200 pieces, this model celebrates the new Sportivo collection with a unique colorway and complications not seen on other models currently in the lineup.
