TRIPLE AWARD WINNING SPECTACLE

The RED Dot Design Award Winner , German Design Award & iF Award winner, The Astroscope displays the weekdays like they’ve never been shown before: related to the heavenly bodies that have been attributed to the various days since ancient times.

The new 200 piece Limited Edition variant comes with a sunburst black dial. The numerals are depicted in a fine serif typeface and the astronomical symbols are designed in luminous yellow, which, together with the luminous hand, ensure that the wearer can tell the time with the Astroscope even after dark.

Above the circular date window and the MeisterSinger logo there is an intimated horizon, enhancing the impression of gazing up at the heavens. The new model comes with a super-soft calfskin watch strap in a yellow that beautifully matches the graphic depictions on the dial. 

It’s the Sun and the Moon that divide our time into day and night and the twelve months of the year for everyone to feel and observe. However, the division into seven-day weeks does not follow any particular astronomical rhythm, but has more of a mythological background. This method dates back to the Babylonians, who, like many other peoples, considered the number seven to be especially holy and connected with seven heavenly bodies, i.e., the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn.

Just as most planets are named after Roman gods, most days of the week in both German and English take their corresponding names from Norse mythology. Throughout history, the allocation of the days of the week to celestial bodies has endured the test of time:

The days of the week poetically dance across the dial, as they do across the night sky.

Monday, the Moon  ☽
Tuesday, Mars  ♂
Wednesday, Mercury  ☿
Thursday, Jupiter  ♃
Friday, Venus  ♀
Saturday, Saturn  ♄
Sunday, the Sun  ☉

The Astroscope is powered by a Swiss automatic movement that can be viewed through the exhibition glass back, which is affixed with six screws.
