Max Bill
The Bauhaus architect and designer Max Bill’s wristwatch line for Junghans — first produced in 1961, in continuous production with minimal design change since. The Automatic and Chronoscope are the family staples; the design vocabulary is the cleanest commercial expression of Bauhaus in horology.
