Description

Moritz Grossmann BENU Index Rose Gold
Model: MG-000463

The Ennead of Heliopolis is one of the oldest stories in ancient Egyptian mythology about the inception of the world. The nine deities are revered in Heliopolis, where the Bennu incarnated on earth as the first living being. The god Atum is the origin of the nine. Self-begotten from nothing, he represents the genesis of everything. Atum is the cosmos, matter, and the complete one; through his progeny, he is the finisher of the world. With his creative powers, Atum engendered air and moisture, the heavens and the earth, and time. The mythos of time is as fascinating as the enigmatic mythology of creation.

Thus, the god of creation inspired the second Grossmann watch family, which is now named BENU. The manually wound BENU immediately manifests mature technology and the ultimate in manufacturing perfection. As a modern interpretation of the historic precision instruments that originated in Moritz Grossmann’s atelier, the BENU is delightfully sleek and impressively substantial.

It, too, embodies all the hallmarks and underlying values of a classically crafted timepiece signed MORITZ GROSSMANN GLASHÜTTE I/SA. The signature is hand-engraved into the characteristic 2/3 plate with the wide horizontal ribbing. The circular cutout of the plate reveals the new Grossmann balance for the first time. It is carried by the cantilevered, hand-engraved balance cock with the typical micrometer screw. Further brand-typical accents in the movement include the ratchet wheel with 3-band snailing, raised gold chatons, and sparkling white sapphire jewels.
