The tourbillon crowns the BENU family. After all, the flying three-minute tourbillon with stop seconds is one of the most formidable challenges in horology. The complex choreography of mechanical precision can be admired through the sapphire-crystal back. It expresses technical virtuosity and stands for traditional craftsmanship.

This new eight-piece limited edition of the Grossmann TOURBILLON also boasts hands made of 750/000 white gold. Shaped like an elongated rhombus and ending in a wafer-thin tip, the hands have the instrumental character that is the hallmark of the manufactory. Combined with the dark tone of the blue solid silver dial on which the hands rotate, the result is one of profound elegance.

Apart from the exact time, what people want to know most when they look at their watches is the current date. So the date display ranks just behind the hour, minute, and seconds indications even though it is a comparatively recent development in the long history of horology. The first wristwatch with an analogue date was introduced in the early 20th century. Grossmann‘s watchmakers are taking their inspiration from this classic display type but have perceptibly evolved it: their jumping date is remarkably easy to use.

With the new expressive DATE Pink variant, the independent manufactory Moritz Grossmann presents its successful date model in a new, fresh and yet sophisticated look. The most eye-catching feature of this watch is its beautiful guilloché dial in pink. This Piece unique 1/1, was created to support the Princess Grace of Monaco Foundation for their 60th anniversary. The brilliantly iridescent guilloché on the main dial and subsidiary seconds draw the eye and will lend any outfit a special touch – exciting, artistic and very, very cool.

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.

A historic engraving technique is being given a new lease of life to mark the manufactory’s anniversary on 11 November 2021. Finished using the eponymous tremblage engraving technique, the TREMBLAGE anniversary model elegantly combines vintage style with the finest mechanics. The timepiece is available in rose gold and stainless steel

Christine Hutter, founder and CEO of the young manufacture, states: “The TREMBLAGE is yet another outstanding innovation in our BENU Heritage collection line. We have revived the historic engraving technique of tremblage in our anniversary model and are delighted to have an engraver with exceptionally long experience and an artistic sensibility to craft a unique work of art from each of our dials.

Throughout millennia, researchers and inventors strived to build a perpetual motion machine, a device that would continue to move indefinitely once started. Without any external source of power, it was believed that the machine itself would generate an unlimited amount of energy. It was only with the formulation of the law of conservation of energy in the middle of the 19th century that physics quashed the principle of perpetual motion. Nevertheless, people’s fascination for the concept remained unbroken.
Of course, the HAMATIC does not purport to be perpetual motion machine – after all, the first self-winding watch from Moritz Grossmann draws its kinetic energy from an external source. A pendulum-style hammer weight skilfully uses the energy generated through the wearer’s movements to transfer it via the ratchet wheel to the mainspring in the barrel, meaning that an external energy source makes the dream of infinite motion come true. It’s therefore safe to say that the HAMATIC is one of the most beautiful and complex examples of would-be perpetual motion.

On 11 November 2022, the manufactory will present the perfect combination of aesthetics and mechanics in the form of the HAMATIC Vintage Cream. While the cream-coloured dial in vintage style is reminiscent of the historic watches made by Moritz Grossmann, the violet numerals and hands act as a link to the movement. Violet-annealed screws are just some of the elaborate decorations incorporated into the in-house manufactory calibre – a hallmark of Moritz Grossmann’s craftsmanship.

Presenting the first model of the newly founded independent Glashütte watch manufactory Moritz Grossmann in 2010, Christine Hutter saw a 125-year-old dream come true. The dream of manufacturing mechanical watches to the highest standards of craftsmanship in the spirit of the visionary and watchmaking genius Moritz Grossmann in Glashütte again.

To commemorate the revival of the brand and pay tribute to the inventor, visionary and master craftsman Moritz Grossmann, a traditional version of this wristwatch is now being released. The POWER RESERVE Vintage features a historic dial in argenté echoing Moritz Grossmann’s classic pocket watches. Finely crafted Roman numerals in black and the original logo featuring the ‘M. GROSSMANN’ typography from 1875 grace the dial paying tribute to the master, as he was respectfully called in Glashütte.

The ENAMEL ARABIC is a rare luxurious dress 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 enamel dial is one of the hallmarks of sublime artisanship that is appreciated by connoisseurs of pure colour and praised for its unique sheen. The sublime face of the ENAMEL ARABIC features a crisp minute scale and elegant Arabic numerals. It expresses its personality with two colour variations on a white enamel dial: the scales and numerals are black or blue, combined with hands annealed to a brown-violet hue.
