The MeisterSinger Panthero Jumping Hour Gets new Sunburst Dials

The MeisterSinger Panthero Jumping Hour, introduced at the start of the year, combines a jumping-hour display with a new design language for the brand, best known for its single-hand watches. Rather than displaying the hours with a central hand, the time is indicated through a jumping-hour aperture at 12 o’clock, while a centrally mounted hand tracks the minutes on an off-centred scale. Despite the evolutionary change, the series remains faithful to MeisterSinger’s philosophy of experiencing time in a calmer, less hurried way.

Following the lacquered black or white dial regular editions, the limited and the Souscription versions with hand-guilloché silver dials, the German brand expands this collection with two new dial executions, bringing sunburst finishing and fresh colour combinations to what has quickly become a flagship model.

The watch remains housed in the Panthero’s 50m water-resistant stainless steel case, with brushed, polished and blasted surfaces. It measures 40.5mm in diameter and features a slim bezel that maximises dial opening. A sapphire crystal tops the dial, and the display caseback offers a view of the movement, contributing to the overall presentation.

As mentioned, these new models introduce a sunburst finish for the dial, radiating from the off-centred pivot of the minutes hand. Two versions are available. The first pairs a deep blue sunburst dial with silver-coloured display elements, including the minutes track, minutes hand, and the brand’s signature rotating sun wheel at 6 o’clock. The second gets a warm golden-yellow dial with dark grey display components. 

Powering the watch is the calibre MS-JH-01, a Sellita SW300 automatic base (alternative to the ETA 2892), equipped with a proprietary jumping-hour module created in collaboration with Dubois-Dépraz. Operating at 28,800 vibrations/hour, the movement delivers a 47-hour power reserve, its rotor shape inspired by the fermata symbol found in the MeisterSinger logo.

The new Panthero Jumping Hour references are delivered on crocodile-embossed calfskin straps, closed with a folding clasp. The blue model is paired with a brown strap, and the golden-yellow version with a cognac leather strap. Additional leather, textile and metal bracelet options remain available. The MeisterSinger Panthero Jumping Hour Sunburst joins the permanent collection; the price is EUR 6,990. For more information, please visit MeisterSinger.com.
