Max Bill Automatic Bauhaus

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 these special versions of the Max Bill with some exotic features, making them very special. The most obvious differences are the bright red accents on the hands and date, giving the watch a subtle, but striking look. The 38mm steel case is rendered with a matte finish, for a more utilitarian look, and is topped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, which also slims the watch down a hair to 9.7mm. Lastly, the Bauhaus itself is depicted on the case back in glorious fashion.

The automatic version is the ideal modern update to the classic design with a slightly larger 38mm diameter. Beating inside is the caliber J800.1 which is based on the Swiss-made automatic ETA 2824-2 movement. Featuring 25-jewels, 38-hour power reserve, hacking seconds (the second hand stops when the crown is pulled out), it is a reliable workhorse movement.
