The Glashütte Original - Julius Assman 2 model was launched in 1997 and made a an exceedingly small limited edition of 25 examples only, each with an unique Meissen porcelain dial. The watch was the result of the collaboration between two of the most celebrated, traditional Saxonian manufacturers, the watch company Glashütte Original and the porcelain manufacturer Meissen.
The finely engraved calibre 52 movement resembles movements used in antique pocketwatches made for the Chinese market. Its ingenious case system allows using this exquisite timepiece either as wristwatch or as a pocketwatch suspended from the original solid 18K pink gold chain. The extremely thin dials made from finest Meissen porcelain are decorated with hand-painted motifs from the workbook of the famous Meissen porcelain painter Johann Gregorius Höroldt (1696-1775). Each dial is unique. The Meissen - Höroldt '96 book accompanying this watch explains and illustrates the work of Johann Gregorious Höroldt and the Meissen porcelain manufacture.
