The Max Bill line by Junghans are truly iconic timepieces that have remained largely unchanged since their debut in the 1960’s. The eponymous designer and architect was trained in the famous Bauhaus school in Dessau, Germany where he honed an undeniable skill at creating minimal, modern works that manage to be as refreshing today as they were at their inception.
To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus, Junghans released special versions of the Max Bill with some exotic features, making them unique. This Max Bill Chronoscope Bauhaus is a continuation of its 100 year anniversary counterpart, with the bright red accents on the hands and date, giving the watch a subtle, but striking look. Even with these cues, the watch is still perfect for the office or a dinner with the relatives.
Inside you will find the J880.2 caliber, which is based on the venerable Valjoux 7750. Junghans dropped the active seconds sub-dial at nine for a clean, symmetrical layouts. The movement is automatic and features 25-jewels, stopwatch functionality, date and 42-hour power reserve.
