At Baselworld 2019 MeisterSinger presented two new colourful models that expand its Pangaea Day Date family. The first model (ref. PDD9Z17B) features two dark hues next to each other. The second version (ref. PDD9Z17S) is even sportier. The new MeisterSinger Pangaea Day Date has a price of Euro 1,990.
MeisterSinger added two new colourful versions to its Pangaea Day Date family which already included models with White, Ivory, Sunbust Anthracite and Sunburst Blue dials.
One of the most successful models created by the German specialist of single-hand watches and winner of several design awards, the Pangaea Day Date displays the date and the weekday by means of two open, well balanced, rotating rings that have practically no joints or gaps.
The current date is shown at 12 o’clock, without disturbing the symmetrical smoothness of the dial.
In the previous versions, the date disks of the Pangaea Day Date were designed in the same colour as the surrounding dial and the display was structured via the height difference of the various elements.
With the new 2019 models, MeisterSinger accentuates the radial geometry of the dial by using strong colours and a 40 mm case in brushed steel that enhances the sporty character of the timepiece.
The first model (ref. PDD9Z17B) features two dark hues next to each other. The centre and the circle with the hour numerals are in steel blue with a sunburst design, while the outer edge is matte black, just like the day and date rings, providing a clear, but discreet contrast. White typography and red markings, also on the tip of the single hand, make it easier to read the time and the date while giving the model a dynamic look.
The second version (ref. PDD9Z17S) is even sportier with the edge of the dial and the two day-date rings finished in a matte sand gray, providing a striking contrast to the shimmering blue of the dial. The functional typography is designed in white combined with red accents.
Beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering a power reserve of 38 hours, the self-winding movement (ETA 2836-2 or Sellita SW 220-1) is visible through the the sixfold screwed glass exhibition back.
Matched to cordovan leather straps in cognac and dark brown and water resistant to 50 metres / 165 feet, the new MeisterSinger Pangaea Day Date has a price of Euro 1,990. meistersinger.com
