Exceptional watchmaking and prestige: premium MeisterSinger watches
Exceptional Swiss watchmaking, high-quality materials and unique design features – this is how MeisterSinger watches can be described in a nutshell. This isn’t surprising, as it has been a leading premium brand of single-hand timepieces for several years and its products are regarded as handcrafted masterpieces. Each MeisterSinger watch fascinates with the innovative solutions, the technical sophistication (including the production of in-house calibres and modules such as the forgotten "Sonnerie au passage" complication) and the meticulously crafted details.
The German brand was inspired by the first mechanical clocks, which measured time with just a single hour hand. MeisterSinger's designers have drawn inspiration from several centuries of watchmaking history. This allowed them to create something completely new – a series of original, stylish and sophisticated single-hand watches that never go out of fashion. With just a glance at a MeisterSinger watch, you instantly grasp the manufacturer's philosophy – to appreciate the passing of time and to understand the significance of the present moment.

The MeisterSinger brand has been delighting enthusiasts and collectors of unique watches as well as lovers of timeless design since its inception on the market. It’s for these unconventional and recognisable designs that the brand has regularly won some of the world's most important design awards since 2001.
An unconventional approach to creation, simple patterns and a focus on what’s most important, i.e. functional and aesthetically pleasing contemporary trend-setting design, has enabled the MeisterSinger brand to win more than 30 prestigious awards from renowned institutions. The manufacturer boasts as many as 36 certified and credible victories. This signifies international recognition of the brand as a leader in exceptional design.

Awards given to the premium German MeisterSinger brand
Below you’ll find an overview of several premium MeisterSinger watches and collections, which have won prestigious awards in four different design competitions in recent years.
Red Dot Design Award - in search of fine design
The Red Dot Award is an international competition in industrial design, organised annually since 1955 by Red Dot GmbH & Co. KG in Essen, Germany. The competition awards one of the world's most prestigious prizes, the Red Dot Design Award, also often referred to as the "Oscar of design". The highly sought-after Red Dot Design award is divided into three categories: Product Design, Brands & Communication Design and Design Concept.
MeisterSinger has plenty of reasons to celebrate as they've been honoured with the prestigious "Product Design: Fashion, watches, and accessories" award not just once, but multiple times, including this year. This year's award went to the limited edition MeisterSinger Singularis Enamel Ivory watch, which wowed the competition jury with its combination of cutting-edge technology and the art of enamelling the ivory-coloured dial. With the iconic single hour hand, stylish two-digit Arabic indices and a five-minute scale, this watch truly captures the essence of success.
Other watches that have won the Red Dot Design Award in previous years can also boast about their success. Let's focus on the winning models of 2021, namely the impressive Unomat Sunburst UN917 and the Bell Hora, which stands out with its fascinating "Sonnerie au Passage" historical complication. When the full hour strikes, the Bell Hora watch emits a delicate bell sound, thanks to its mechanical heart.
Other MeisterSinger watches that won awards in 2020, 2019 and 2018 are the Astroscope, Lunascope and Salthora Meta X. What sets these designs apart is their distinctive and well-thought-out aesthetics, drawing inspiration from industrial design. These watches stand out with their finely crafted realistic details, innovative solutions and reliable technology.
Other MeisterSinger watches that have received the Red Dot Design Award are:
- Adhaesio (2016),
- In-house hand-wound calibre MSH01 (2015),
- Pangaea Day Date (2013),
- Singulator (2010),
- Perigraph (2009),
- N° 01 (2007).
MeisterSinger – the winner of the iF Product Design Award
The MeisterSinger brand got yet another cool award for its unique single-hand watches: the iF Product Design Award. It is the oldest independent design quality label in the world and a symbol of outstanding achievement in this field. This unique award has been conferred regularly since 1954 by the iF International Forum Design. Today, the award is given in 6 disciplines spanning 70 categories.
MeisterSinger has proudly received this special award on multiple occasions, including this year, for their remarkable MeisterSinger Primatic watch as it skillfully blends German design and Swiss watchmaking art. With its power reserve indicator, this model is sure to delight watch enthusiasts for many years ahead.
But that's not all! Just two years ago, the Neo Pointer Date and the Astroscope models won the prestigious iF Design Award 2021. The Astroscope featured the days of the week as symbols inspired by the celestial bodies of the ancient Babylonian calendar. On the other hand, the Neo Pointer Date in the style of classic modernism added the unique Pointer Date complication at the centre of the dial, paying homage to the rich heritage of watchmaking.
Let's not overlook the MeisterSinger Vintago VT903 watch, which won the iF Design Award 2020 a year before. The model is designed in the style of the 1960s and takes its inspiration from the functional aesthetics of a bygone era.
The following MeisterSinger watches have been awarded the iF Design Award in previous years:
- Lunascope (2019),
- Adhaesio (2016),
- Circularis (2015),
- N° 01 (2004).
German Design Award – "Excellent Product Design"
The accolades for the MeisterSinger brand don't stop there. Their innovative designs have also claimed recognition at the prestigious German Design Award in recent years. This esteemed prize, given by the German Ministry of Economics and Technology, celebrates exceptional design accomplishments across three categories, including "Excellent Communication Design", "Excellent Architecture" and "Excellent Product Design". And it is in the latter discipline that MeisterSinger watches have won more than once.
Let's not forget to mention the Astroscope, Lunascope and Circularis Gangreserve watch series, which received the German Design Award in 2021, 2020 and 2019. These remarkable timepieces set design trends for years to come. With their distinctive style, each model effortlessly embodies both tradition and a contemporary approach to watchmaking. The photorealistic astronomical details, the Swiss art of watchmaking and the exquisite in-house movements are admired worldwide by connoisseurs and collectors of this demanding industry.
The German Design Award also went to:
- In-house hand-wound MSH01 movement (2017),
- MeisterSinger Circularis (2016),
- MeisterSinger Pangaea Day Date (2015).
Prestigious GOOD Design Award for MeisterSinger
Adding to their list of triumphs, MeisterSinger watches have also won the esteemed GOOD Design Award, an annual competition that recognises products distinguished by exceptional design and industrial aesthetics. This prestigious award stands as the sole evaluation system of its kind in Japan and is sponsored by the renowned Japan Institute of Design Promotion.
Those who love the extraordinary, search for amazing visual experiences in watches and appreciate spectacular and top-notch finishing details in designs, should pay attention to the collections and models awarded by the GOOD Design Award.
The Metris Bronze Line watch series won the GOOD Design Award in 2020. Other winners are the MeisterSinger Circularis Power Reserve Black Line (2019), the Pangaea Day Date (2013), and the Singulator (2010). Of course, this list of accolades for MeisterSinger watches wouldn't be complete without mentioning the iconic N° 03 (2007) and the timeless Perigraph model, which not only claimed victory in 2009 but was also crowned "Watch Of The Year" in 2012.
