Junghans max bill

A Junghans max bill Automatic, with the thin numerals, fine minute track and slender hands of the original design. Max Bill, who studied at the Bauhaus in Dessau and later co-founded the Ulm School of Design, first worked with Junghans in 1956 on a kitchen clock developed with students, and the same pared-back thinking shaped the wristwatches he designed for the company in 1961. The appeal is typographic. Every element is drawn as thinly as it can be while staying readable, the case is a simple drum, and the domed crystal does the rest. Any watch sold as Bauhaus style today is borrowing from this one.
