Limited edition 131 pieces

1893 JOHANNES DÜRRSTEIN EDITION MOON PHASE LIMITED EDITION

D903.458.76.013.09

Inspired by historical pocket watches, the 1893 Johannes Dürrstein Edition Moon Phase Limited Edition embodies the essence of Glashütte watchmaking and combines tradition with modern watchmaking expertise. Limited to just 131 pieces, this watch is characterised by its case made of solid 18-carat rose gold, which radiates a special elegance. In addition to the 750 rose gold case, the crescent-shaped date hand and the 24-hour hand are also in rose gold, while the other hands are thermally blued. The small seconds hand is positioned at 9 o'clock and the moon phase display with a gold-coloured moon against a blue firmament is located at 6 o'clock. At its heart beats the finely decorated UNG-58.S1 hand-wound movement with the typical Glashütte three-quarter plate and a power reserve of at least 65 hours.

Description

The first UNION timepieces were produced in Glashütte in 1893. The collection of the same name combines Glashütte watchmaking techniques that have been passed down for generations with stateof-the-art developments. A number of details, including blued hands, lacquered dials and railway track chapter rings, are reminiscent of the watches' predecessors without appearing outdated at all. This collection also includes hand-wound calibres. Thanks to our continuous perfectionism and the use of modern technology like the silicon balance-spring system or an indexless regulation system, our watches are – more than ever – at the forefront of watchmaking.

silicon balance spring

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.
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

LEATHER

Union Glashütte uses primarily calfskin for its straps, either smooth or with a crocodile skin finish, as well as cowhide, cordovan or goatskin.
Gold

Gold

Refined gold is very soft and is the most ductile of all metals. Soft, refined gold is a material that is ill-suited for use in jewellery, watches, coins, etc., and is therefore alloyed with other metals to alter its hardness, strength and colour, as well as to improve polishing results and bring down the price. For its cases, crowns and buckles, Union Glashütte only uses gold alloys with a copper content and with 750 parts per thousand of pure gold (18 carat). This produces a rose gold tone.
Water resistance

Water resistance

All Union Glashütte watches are water-resistant as follows: Men's watches up to 10 bar (100 m) Ladies' watches up to 5 bar (50 m) Gold watches up to 3 bar (30 m). The water resistance cannot be guaranteed indefinitely. It may become compromised by ageing of the seals or knocks to the crown or push-buttons. We therefore recommend that you have the water resistance of your watch checked once a year by an approved Union Glashütte Service Centre and, if required, that you replace any defective parts. Do not open the watch yourself under any circumstances.
