The Summit Collection: A Strong First Step for New Brand Earthen

Earthen Company is one of the freshest names to enter the watch market, founded in Hong Kong in 2025 by a group of passionate collectors and enthusiasts. Co-founder Jonathan Chan, also a key figure behind The Horology Club, explains that the team approached this project as collectors first, not as traditional watchmakers. 

The result is a debut that doesn’t chase trends but instead offers something unique, a series of ceramic, field- and pilot-inspired watches at an accessible price point. With the launch of the Summit Collection, it’s clear Earthen intends to make an impression from day one.

Introducing MeisterSinger Unveils The New Kaenos collection

A contemporary spin with a sporty flair

MeisterSinger is one of the few brands that still embrace the old methods of single-hand timekeeping. This is not due to a lack of innovation but rather a way of showing modern watch enthusiasts how their great-great-grandparents once kept track of time. MeisterSinger timepieces strip away the distraction of minute and second hands, encouraging a simpler and more intuitive way to read time. Now, as part of its participation in the highly anticipated Watches & Wonders 2025, the German brand is set to unveil its latest innovation: the Kaenos collection.

For nearly 25 years, MeisterSinger has captivated enthusiasts with its timeless approach to watch design. The new Kaenos collection offers a fresh take on this philosophy, retaining the brand’s signature one-hand display while embracing a sportier, more versatile aesthetic. The name "Kaenos" is derived from the Greek word “kainos”, meaning "new" or "fresh," symbolizing a renewal for the brand.

The case is crafted from stainless steel, measuring 40mm in diameter, with both brushed and polished surfaces that create a dynamic play of light. Built for durability, it offers 100 meters of water resistance, ensuring it can handle daily wear with ease. A sapphire crystal protects the dial, while a sapphire crystal caseback provides a view of the movement at work.

The Kaenos dial takes a bold approach with a layered construction. The numerals and hour markers are cut out from the upper layer to reveal a luminous layer beneath, creating a striking three-dimensional effect. The newly designed luminous hour hand draws inspiration from vintage measuring instruments, a hallmark of MeisterSinger’s design language.

The Kaenos collection comes in two distinct variations: the Kaenos, which features a date window at 6 o’clock, and the Kaenos Open Date, distinguished by an open date disk positioned below 12 o’clock. Both models are available in four dial colors: matte black, as well as sunburst-finished light gray, ice blue, and petrol. The hands are offered in either black or silver-gray.

Each model is powered by a Swiss-made Sellita movement. The Kaenos is equipped with the Sellita SW400, featuring a date window at 6 o’clock, while the Kaenos Open Date runs on the Sellita SW200, which includes a date wheel. Both movements offer a 38-hour power reserve and operate at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4Hz).

The watch comes with an integrated stainless steel bracelet with brushed and polished links. The Kaenos is priced at €2,650, approximately AED 10,650, while the Kaenos Open Date is priced at €2,950, approximately AED 11,900.
