Grossmann Uhren honours the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall with the special model “1989”

Grossmann Watches presents a unique piece to 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall.

“Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” When US President Reagan called for Soviet President Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin wall on 12 June 1987, he probably did not dare to believe that just two-and-a-half years later, all borders within Germany would be open and three years after his speech, all border controls would be removed.

The movement is a Grossmann calibre 100.1 in High Artistic Finish which is the most elaborate stage of finish offered by Grossmann. The components of the calibre are made from untreated German silver with varying finishes and form the various levels. The pillar movement consists of the main plate and the 2/3 plate which are precisely spaced apart by two movement pillars and the barrel bridge. Raised gold chatons and pan-head chaton screws are testament to the high quality.

Hand-polished chamfers on going-train wheels and the edges of levers and springs create a special depth and light reflections. The Grossmann balance and the Glashütte stopwork, crafted entirely in-house, create the space needed for the Grossman manual winder with pusher. The watch has a sporty stainless steel case in a matt black look. The dark brown calf leather strap subtly rounds off the elegant appearance.
