Moritz Grossmann

Grossmann Uhren GmbH is a watch manufacturer based in Glashütte, Germany.  

More than 100 years after Moritz Grossmann began developing technically outstanding watches, watchmaker Christine Hutter discovered the heritage of his work in Glashütte, acquired the name and established a new manufacture based upon his timeless mechanical principles.

It was during the financial crisis of 2007-08 Christine Hutter (who had previously held positions at Wempe, Maurice Lacroix, Glashütte Original, and A. Lange & Söhne) founded her own luxury watch brand, Moritz Grossmann, after acquiring the right to use the name of 19th century founder and director of the German School of Watchmaking, Karl Moritz Grossmann.

Initially the company operated from her personal residence in Dresden, but shortly afterwards moved into a former hardware store in Glashütte. In 2010, having grown to 16 employees, the company released its first production model and acquired land to build a new factory. By 2013 the construction was complete.

Today, this is where ancestral craftsmanship is reinterpreted with modern technology. It is referred to as the beginning of a new era in the name of Moritz Grossmann.

Before Moritz Grossmann watches grace a wrist, they pass through the hands of many masters. This is because for us, “made by hand” is not just a method, it is a philosophy and a conviction.
