The 2025 Glashütte Original x MEISSEN collaboration comprises three limited-edition Senator Meissen watches: two Mystic Maison designs limited to 150 pieces each, and a colorful collage limited to eight. Each pairs a 40 mm red-gold case and hand-painted porcelain dial with Glashütte Original’s Calibre 36. Separately, visitors to the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory can see a show workshop and museum; a distinct Behind the Scenes Tour is listed for Fridays at 10 a.m., subject to date-specific availability.

What is the Senator Meissen collaboration?

Announced by Swatch Group on 9 October 2025, Senator Meissen is a trio of limited-edition watches created by Glashütte Original and the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory. The release marked 180 years of Glashütte watchmaking and 315 years of MEISSEN history, according to Swatch Group’s announcement.

The collaboration’s defining feature is the dial: a thin porcelain disc decorated by hand. The three versions share the described 40 mm red-gold case and Calibre 36 movement; the distinction is their artwork and edition size.

How the three dial versions differ

Version Dial design Edition size
Mystic Maison, gray on white Gray decoration on a white porcelain dial 150 pieces
Mystic Maison, celadon green Celadon-green porcelain dial 150 pieces
Colorful collage on celadon Animal and floral motifs inspired by MEISSEN’s “Dekorwelten” crater vase 8 pieces

Swatch Group’s announcement links celadon to Chinese ceramic objects with a transparent green glaze dating to the 9th century. The green version therefore brings a historical ceramic reference to the collaboration, while the eight-piece collage is the rarest of the three editions. Edition size alone does not establish current availability or price.

Glashütte Original’s Senator collection page lists Senator Meissen as an “Atelierauftrag Limited” automatic variation. It does not establish current inventory or a retail price.

What makes the porcelain dials distinctive?

Swatch Group describes the porcelain discs as being fired at 1,400°C, then inspected for quality and a flat surface. Craftspeople apply decoration, lettering and Roman numerals by hand with fine brushes in layers; each color layer is fired at 900°C. These are manufacturer-reported production details.

Automatic winding is to wind the winder by itself, and it needs to be wound to start, and it needs to be wound when the battery is not used for a long time. Rotate the crown to wind the automatic watch until the power pulse starts, and then the automatic winding mechanism starts to work.

  • ✡After sales service: If you have any questions about the product, please feel free to contact seller,we will give you a satisfactory solution.

The dial display emphasizes hours and minutes. The layered process helps explain why these are not simply printed watch dials: the porcelain and its decoration pass through repeated craft and firing stages before completion.

Calibre 36 and the shared watch specification

All three versions use Glashütte Original Calibre 36. The official descriptions specify bi-directional automatic winding, a silicon balance spring, stop-seconds and a 100-hour running time. No different movement or performance specification is stated for any one dial variant.

What can you see at the MEISSEN porcelain manufactory?

MEISSEN’s general visitor experience combines a show workshop, where visitors can observe porcelain craft, with an individual visit to the MEISSEN Porcelain Foundation Museum. The visitor information says the admission package includes an audio guide bookable in 14 languages. MEISSEN also offers creative workshops, including porcelain painting, and has visitor stores in Meissen and Dresden as well as online retail; these are optional rather than necessary parts of a visit. See the official visitor information for current arrangements.

The manufactory page gives further historical context: MEISSEN states that it was founded in 1710 and describes a collection of 700,000 historical models and plaster molds and 10,000 color recipes. These are figures published by MEISSEN, not independent audits.

General visit or Behind the Scenes Tour?

Visit What is described Schedule and booking
Show workshop and museum Observe porcelain craft in the show workshop and visit the MEISSEN Porcelain Foundation Museum; the admission information includes an audio guide available in 14 languages. Check MEISSEN’s current visitor page for date-specific hours, prices and admission details.

The Behind the Scenes Tour is a separate offering from the general show-workshop and museum visit. Its published Friday time is not evidence of a guaranteed tour on every date. MEISSEN’s English manufactory page describes the tour and production areas. The visitor sources here concern MEISSEN; they do not document public tours of Glashütte Original watch production.
