Benzinger - Zeitsprung, the LAST ONE AVAILABLE!!!


What makes this watch so interesting is not only the design but also what is under the dial. Jochen Benzinger was able to get a limited number of extremely rare Kasper movements 1415, which were made by Emil Kasper & Co in Pforzheim from 1911 to the 1970's. And so he created this limited series „Zeitsprung“ of 25 pieces.

The example in this report is the last one available! It does wear a beautiful Moirée guilloché onto the dial (original Berguet frosted!) with the jumping hours and minutes indication in black on a white background.



Benzinger and his master watchmaker transformed the movement into a jump hour complication. Many modifications to the base movement were required to create the jump hour function.
The movement of this last example is hand-engraved, hand-skeletonized and hand-guilloché. It is kept in a beautiful floral design, rose gold train gear bridge and barillet bridge . The main plate is black pvd coated.


The 40mm case in stainless steel does wear very perfectly on the wrist and makes this a very elegant and discreet timepiece.

The whole design with the jumping hours at 12 o‘clock, minutes at 6 o‘clock and seconds from the center makes this a perfect dress watch and is as well one of my favorite timepieces made by Benzinger.

You can order this great watch by sending me an e-mail on the following address: info@watchcollector.lu

Kind regards.
