It may sound like a cliché, but this is a design classic !

Since 1861 Junghans has been producing great clocks and watches in Germany’s black forest region. In the 1950s the Swiss artist and designer Max Bill was tasked with designing a new range of clocks for Junghans, which then became the basis for the long-standing “Max Bill” line of wristwatches, with which Mr Bill was also involved for years. Max Bill studied at the famous Bauhaus design school in Dessau, and endowed this line of beautifully designed watches with his classic minimalist stamp, creating an iconic look celebrated down throughout the decades since.

This Chronoscope features many of the subtle design elements which have become sought after by watch aficionados and design illuminati :

  • Perfect 40mm diameter (appears larger because of fine bezel)

  • !4mm height (wears lower due to beautiful basin design case)

  • High dome scratch-resistant plexiglass

  • Matte black classic form-follows-funtion dial with Hour/Minute and date window, plus Hour and Minute sub dials and chrono seconds hand with lovely curved end

  • Very cool retro piston chrono pushers

  • Superluminove on Hour and Minute hands plus brilliant tiny dots at 12,3,6 & 9 markers

  • Valjoux 7750 - based Junghans J880.2

  • LNIB with original unworn black leather strap and 1x GBH520 Horween supple saddle strap as pictured. Worn as demo only, no scratches case or plexi.
