When You Say "Jump", I ask "How High?"

25 years of MeisterSinger watches  

For a quarter of a century, MeisterSinger has embodied a way of looking at time that gently encourages you to slow down. For 25 years, MeisterSinger has proven that less can indeed be more – paring timekeeping back to a single hand and dispensing with the minute and seconds hands.  

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. 

 

A case with real character 

The newly developed 40,5-mm case immediately captivates with its refined elegance.  

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. And, of course, a signature MeisterSinger feature is also present here: the subtly domed sapphire crystal glass on the front and the exhibition case back, which invites you to admire the movement going about its high-precision work. 

A striking new face of time 

At its core, the Panthero Jumping Hour remains unmistakably MeisterSinger. It presents the time in a minimalist, tranquil and entirely intuitive manner – and yet its entire design has been thoughtfully reimagined. The hour appears in a perfectly round window, jumping forward with exact precision, hour after hour. The minutes are indicated by a finely sculpted hand that does not originate from the center, but instead traces its path across the likewise off-center, superimposed minute ring. This reimagined geometry lends the dial a remarkable sense of depth, dynamic tension, and its own distinctive sense of order. 

A sun that reveals time 

The harmonious impression is enhanced by a circular element that turns with every passing second, formed from the shape of the fermata – the MeisterSinger logo – and evocative of a radiant sun. 

The new MeisterSinger sun wheel measures nothing, it counts nothing – and yet it makes the continuous flow of time visible, quietly revealing that the movement within is tirelessly at work. A subtle, almost meditative impulse that infuses the watch with life and consciously introduces a new emphasis within the MeisterSinger universe. 

Watchmaking finesse 

Inside the Panthero Jumping Hour, the MS-JH-01 based on the proven Sellita SW300 is at work, refined by a delicately engineered module designed to drive the characteristic jumping hour display. 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.
