Bold New Colorway from German Horology Specialists

MeisterSinger has electrified its watch collection with two new limited editions that reinterpret the brand's signature minimalist aesthetic through a bold graphic lens. The Kaenos DLC and Kaenos Open Date DLC models feature black-coated cases paired with sunburst yellow dials, creating a striking contrast that accentuates the brand's distinctive single-hand time display.

Design Craftsmanship Highlights

The 40mm cases receive a durable Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating, creating a sleek matte-black foundation for these sport-chic timepieces. The vibrant yellow dials employ:

Sunray finishing that creates dynamic light plays
Super-LumiNova-coated indices for nighttime legibility
The brand's signature single-hand display (with added open-date complication on one model)

"These editions capture our philosophy of simplification while adding contemporary energy," explains MeisterSinger CEO Manfred Brassler. "The color combination creates instant visual recognition while maintaining functional clarity."

Technical Details for Collectors

Both models feature:

Automatic Sellita SW200 movements with 38-hour power reserve
100 meters water resistance
Integrated stainless steel bracelets with DLC coating
Special edition numbering on casebacks

The standard Kaenos DLC edition maintains pure simplicity with the single hour hand, while the Open Date variant adds a practical aperture at 6 o'clock - an unusual complication for the typically minimalist brand.

Availability & Pricing Strategy

Limited to 500 pieces for the standard model and 300 pieces for the open-date version, these editions represent MeisterSinger's strategy to offer accessible luxury:

Kaenos Automatic DLC: €2,490
Kaenos Open Date Automatic DLC: €2,690

Pre-orders begin October 15 through authorized dealers worldwide, with delivery expected by holiday season. Collectors note this marks the brand's first use of yellow as a primary dial color since their formative years.
