1893 Johannes Dürrstein Edition Moon Phase

1893 Johannes Dürrstein Edition Moon Phase

D007.458.16.017.00

Our exclusive Johannes Dürrstein editions are dedicated to the great Glashütte watchmaking tradition and inspired by historical pocket watches. This model combines the classic complication of the moon phase with a sophisticated calendar. On the outside, too, the elegant timepiece is in no way inferior to its mechanical predecessor: the stainless steel housing with a diameter of 41 mm is worn with a high-quality black calfskin leather strap. Robust sapphire crystal on the front and back of the watch provides a clear view of all its components.

Description

The first Union timepieces were produced in Glashütte in 1893. Today, with a collection named after this significant year, the brand is reinterpreting elements from its own history. The shape of the case is inspired by historical pocket watches, while numerous other details – such as the blued hands, lacquered dials and "railway track" chapter rings – evoke memories of the great classics.

silicon balance spring

UNION GLASHÜTTE uses Silicon, a chemical element of the family of metalloids, in the manufacture of balance springs. By use of Silicon, our watches are insensitive to magnetic fields, temperature fluctuations and shocks. They are very stable in shape and resistant to oxidation. The silicon spiral guarantees higher power stability in our mechanical movements - so your watch runs precisely anytime, anywhere. You can recognize the use of the silicon spiral in your UNION GLASHÜTTE watch by the Si-poster that our watchmakers set and align by hand.
STAINLESS STEEL

STAINLESS STEEL

Union Glashütte uses only 316L stainless steel for its cases, bracelets, and clasps. This alloy is characterized by high corrosion resistance, skin compatibility, and durability, providing a reliable foundation for everyday use. At the same time, finely machined and polished surfaces contribute to the watch's distinctive appearance.

While stainless steel remains durable in use, it can—especially polished surfaces—acquire minor marks. To preserve the surface for as long as possible, it is recommended to avoid contact with hard or abrasive materials and to store the watch separately from other objects. After exposure to salt water or chlorine, it should be rinsed with clean water and dried with a soft cloth.

Regular cleaning with a microfiber cloth is sufficient for maintenance; a slightly damp cloth can be used if necessary. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents or abrasive materials. The finest signs of wear can be reduced through professional servicing, thus preserving the original finish for years to come.

Saphir

Saphir

The sapphire used by Union Glashütte for its crystals is a white, synthetic sapphire. Thanks to its hardness rating of 9, this crystal can only be scratched by very hard diamond-like substances. Union Glashütte watches only use double-sided anti-reflective sapphire crystals. As there are no reflections on the crystal, the full splendour of the dial is revealed.
Leather straps

Leather straps

Union Glashütte primarily uses calfskin leather – smooth or crocodile-embossed – as well as cowhide, horsehide, and goatskin for its watch straps. As natural materials, they give each watch an individual character and develop a distinctive patina over time.

  • Protect from water, high humidity, and intense sunlight.
  • Do not wear while showering, swimming, or playing sports.
  • Avoid contact with strongly colored materials (e.g., denim).
  • Dry gently after exposure to moisture – without heat.

  • Slight variations in color and surface are typical of the material and emphasize its individual character. Depending on use, the material will change over time – therefore, replacing the strap is a natural part of long-term use.
