„Archao“ and the power of the essential – MeisterSinger presents a particularly striking single-hand watch for its 25th anniversary.

Meistersinger is never short of meaningful model names. Each one represents a unique variation of their proprietary single-hand principle, which allows for watches with very different characters.
Certain stylistic features can be found on almost all MeisterSinger watches: the needle-pointed hour hand, the leading zero in the hour numbers, and markings in five-minute increments between them to make reading easier.
MeisterSinger equips elegant dress watches, robust sports watches and models with mechanical specialties such as a striking mechanism.
The newly unveiled "Archao" belongs to a different category. Its graphic design appears significantly more modern than the other models – despite its name. But the name, according to MeisterSinger, stands for "originality" and thus for the essential. And the watch truly and succinctly highlights the essence of the brand, now 25 years old.
The matte black DLC-coated case, with its generous 43-millimeter diameter, and the dark, grained dials (in black, red, and blue) provide a striking backdrop for the bold hour markers, numerals, and distinctive hands. These luminescent elements glow intensely. And even with this glow, the overall design remains balanced thanks to the generous hand overhang.
The saddle leather strap, which is supplied with the „Archao“ variants, is also appropriately robust to match the overall appearance: black for the black version, dark red for the red version and cognac-colored for the blue version.
The „Archao“ is powered by the automatic Sellita SW 200 caliber. The blackened 43-millimeter stainless steel case is water-resistant to five bar and has a screw-down glass back with an unusual, „archaic“ print reminiscent of a volcano.
