Description
Moritz Grossmann BENU Date Rose Gold (Silver Dial)
Model: MG-000854
Apart from the exact time, what people want to know most when they look at their watches is the current date. So the date display is emphasised with a complete scale and a highly functional date marker. The calibre 100.3 in the DATE is based on calibre 100.1, preserving many essential components. However, to integrate the jumping date mechanism on the calibre 100.3, Moritz Grossmann’s watchmakers developed a highly intuitive and easy-to-use date complication.
The standout feature is the precisely jumping date with a peripheral marker and a separate crown at 10 o’clock for bidirectional date adjustment. This makes setting the date straightforward and user-friendly.
Grossmann balance; hand-setting override and movement restart via lateral pusher; precisely jumping date display; bidirectional date adjustment via separate crown at 10 o’clock; space-saving modified Glashütte stopwork with backlash; Grossmann micrometer screw adjustment; hand-engraved 2/3 plate, balance cock, and escape-wheel cock; broad horizontal Glashütte ribbing; 3-band snailing on the ratchet wheel; raised gold chatons with pan-head screws; separately removable clutch winding mechanism; stop seconds for precise hand setting.
