The BENU takes its name from the ancient Egyptian deity that rises from the ashes like the phoenix in Greek mythology - a watch created by the Moritz Grossmann company that unreservedly reflects and nurtures the heritage of Moritz Grossmann himself - its timelessly elegant, puristic design is clearly inspired by Grossmann’s own personal credo. The heavy polished red gold case, the slim bezel, the solid silver dial and the Arabic numerals come together to present a picture of minimalist elegance - puristic design on the outside conceals traditional excellent craftsmanship and modern finesse inside the case.
