Mühle-Glashütte Teutonia IV Big Date Edition 1994 M1-44-75-1994-LB

The Mühle-Glashütte Teutonia IV Big Date Edition 1994 is the crown jewel of the anniversary series — and the most technically significant watch Mühle has released in years. For the first time, Mühle-Glashütte debuts an in-house developed big date module in the new calibre MU9424-GD. This is not a Sellita with cosmetic modifications. The big date module — from the module plate to the units ring, tens star, and the smallest click spring — was designed, developed, and produced by Mühle in Glashütte. It is the brand's most significant step toward full manufacture status since the introduction of the woodpecker neck regulation in 2003.

The big date display sits at 6 o'clock, positioned there specifically because the in-house module allows flexible placement on the dial side — a capability that standard off-the-shelf date modules do not offer. The result is a perfectly balanced dial: the Mühle logo at 12, the big date at 6, the hour markers in between. The anthracite-blue dial with horizontal structure gives the surface a subtle, directional texture that shifts under changing light, while bright nickel-plated hands and applied indices maintain the Teutonia's characteristic legibility. Anniversary markers appear on the minute track — 30 in Mühle blue (marking the 30th anniversary) and 155 replacing 55 (marking 155 years since the 1869 founding).

The Teutonia IV case architecture — 41mm with volute-shaped horns, hand-applied vertical cuts on the case middle section, and finely polished horn tips — frames the in-house calibre with the craftsmanship this movement deserves. The exhibition caseback reveals the MU9424-GD with its anniversary rotor bearing a gold-coloured 30-year logo, and a polished movement holder showcasing gold-coloured engravings of the calibre and module designations. Limited to 155 pieces in this anthracite-blue dial variant.

Key Features

• Calibre MU9424-GD — Mühle's first in-house big date module — Built around a Swiss base with Mühle's own big date module on top. The module — from the module plate to the units ring, tens star, click, and click spring — was designed, developed, and produced in Glashütte. The in-house module allows the big date to be flexibly positioned on the dial side, which is why it sits at 6 o'clock in perfect symmetry. Regulated in six positions to achieve 0 to +8 seconds per day. 41-hour power reserve
• Big date display at 6 o'clock — A large-format date window using a specially designed units ring and tens star to display two oversized digits. Far more legible than a standard date window, and a classic Glashütte complication — A. Lange & Söhne and Glashütte Original both offer their own versions. This is Mühle's entry into that tradition, at a fraction of the price
• Anthracite-blue dial with horizontal structure — The horizontal texture gives the dial a subtle directional quality that shifts between warm anthracite and cooler blue depending on the angle of light. Anniversary markers: 30 in Mühle blue on the minute track, 155 replacing 55
• Anniversary caseback details — Wide sapphire exhibition window reveals the MU9424-GD with a gold-coloured anniversary rotor bearing the 30-year logo, and a polished movement holder with gold-coloured engravings of the calibre and module designations. The most detailed caseback in the Mühle range
• Volute-shaped horns with hand-applied vertical cut — The Teutonia's signature curled lugs with hand-finished vertical cuts on the case middle section and polished horn tips. A level of case finishing that connects the Edition 1994 to the Teutonia family's classical identity
• Crocodile leather strap with butterfly clasp — 20mm black crocodile leather with a secure folding deployment clasp. The most formal strap configuration, matching the Big Date's status as the pinnacle of the Edition 1994

Technical Specifications

The MU9424-GD: A New Chapter for Mühle

• Mühle's first in-house big date — The big date is a signature Glashütte complication. A. Lange & Söhne pioneered it. Glashütte Original refined it. Mühle-Glashütte now offers their own interpretation — at a price point that makes the Glashütte big date accessible for the first time. The in-house module was designed, developed, and produced entirely in Glashütte
• Flexible positioning — Standard date modules are fixed in position. The MU9424-GD's in-house module can be placed anywhere on the dial side, which is why the big date sits at 6 o'clock in perfect vertical symmetry with the logo at 12. This is not a cosmetic rearrangement — it's an engineering capability that required a purpose-built module
• From woodpecker neck to big date — In 2003, the woodpecker neck regulation proved Mühle was more than an assembler. In 2024, the MU9424-GD proves it again. Two decades apart, both innovations share the same principle: solve a watchmaking problem with a proprietary solution developed in Glashütte
• The Teutonia as the flagship — Mühle chose the Teutonia IV — the most elegant collection in their range — to debut this movement. The pairing is deliberate: the big date is a dressy complication, and the Teutonia IV, with its volute-shaped horns and hand-finished case, is the dress-watch platform that does it justice
