The Watch

The Meistersinger x Alain Silberstein Kaenos Grand Date Watch is a marvel of modern watchmaking, offering a seamless blend of elegance and functionality. Swiss-made, it embodies the craftsmanship and prestige that define this nation's horological heritage. The round case measuring 40.00 mm in diameter in stainless steel combines lasting robustness with timeless sophistication. At 11.20 mm thick, the watch strikes the perfect balance between a confident presence and optimal wrist comfort. This limited edition of 225 pieces showcases a distinct aesthetic - a bridge between unbridled creativity and refined minimalism. The screw-down transparent caseback reveals the beating heart of the piece, adding a uniquely personal dimension for the wearer. The design by Alain Silberstein, celebrated for his bold colors and geometric forms, infuses the watch with playful touches that make every glance at it a visually rewarding experience.

The Dial

The dial is a true stage of subtle design and technical sophistication. Deep black and sunray-brushed, it creates a striking contrast with the gold-toned applied indices at the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions. The hands and indices are luminescent, ensuring exceptional legibility in any lighting condition. The domed sapphire crystal adds depth and dimension while effectively protecting the dial from scratches. The bold red hand - Silberstein's signature touch - immediately commands attention with its vivid pop of color. Meanwhile, the gold seconds hand brings a graceful, almost hypnotic movement that hints at the intricate mechanism within. The railway minute track offers precise, fluid timekeeping at a glance. A date window sits at 6 o'clock, while the silver Meistersinger logo adds a three-dimensional touch of sophistication.

The Movement

At the heart of the Kaenos Grand Date beats the Sellita SW 400-1 caliber, a Swiss automatic movement renowned for its reliability and precision. Running at 28,800 vph (4 Hz), it delivers smooth operation and highly accurate timekeeping. The watch offers a 38-hour power reserve, ensuring comfortable autonomy. This Swiss mechanism is distinguished by its flawless quality and straightforward maintenance, allowing the wearer to use it worry-free every day. The movement is visible through the transparent caseback, offering a fascinating glimpse into the internal mechanical ballet - a feature especially prized by fine watchmaking enthusiasts.

The Bracelet

The bracelet is a perfect marriage of elegance and comfort. Crafted from stainless steel, it features a brushed and polished finish that underscores its sophisticated look. This choice of material ensures lasting durability while remaining comfortable to wear, resisting corrosion and everyday wear. With a lug width optimized for a secure fit, the bracelet adjusts effortlessly thanks to its silver deployant clasp - a hallmark of fine watchmaking. It delivers a safe, comfortable fit while making it easy to put on and take off. This thoughtful design complements the watch's bold dial beautifully, ensuring that the innovative aesthetic is matched by outstanding wearing comfort.

Water Resistance

The watch is designed to be as functional as it is elegant, with excellent water resistance up to 10 atmospheres (100 meters). It withstands pressure equivalent to depths of 100 meters underwater, making it well-suited for swimming, pool diving, and other occasional water activities. An ideal choice for those who love aquatic environments without ever compromising on performance or style.
