Junghans Uhren GmbH was founded in 1861 in Schramberg, in Germany’s eastern Black Forest, by Erhard Junghans and his brother-in-law Jakob Zeller-Tobler. Initially a producer of clock parts, the company began making its own complete clocks and pocket watches in 1866 and by 1903 had become the largest watch and clock manufacturer in the world, employ...
Born in Winterthur, Switzerland, Max Bill (1908-1994, above) began his artistic studies at the famous Bauhaus campus in Dessau, Germany in 1927 after a three-year apprenticeship to a silversmith. After studying under illustrious teachers including Wassily Kandisnksy, Paul Klee, and Oskar Schlemmer, Bill moved to Zurich to begin his career in archit...
In keeping with its designer’s Bauhaus sensibilities, the concept behind the original Max Bill Küchenuhr(“kitchen clock,” above), produced commercially by Junghans in 1956, was simple and eminently utilitarian: combine the kitchen wall clock, often the only stationary timekeeper in a household, with the kitchen timer used in the preparation of meal...
Max Bill Automatic
At the forefront of the contemporary Max Bill family is the three-handed Automatic, which comes in a 38mm case and contains the self-winding, Swiss ETA-based Junghans Caliber J800-1 with a 38-hour power reserve.

The watches are mounted on calf leather straps or stee...
Max Bill Automatic Bauhaus
Deserving of its own shout-out among the Automatic options is the Bauhaus edition, released in 2019 in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Bauhaus. The anthracite PVD coating on the steel case of the 1,000-piece limited edition evokes the facade of the Dessau building while the red hands and red date window pay tribute to its famed red doors. The gray strap, Junghans says, is inspired by the concrete used in the construction of the building, which is also represented...
Max Bill Kleine Automatic
“Kleine”means “small” in German, and the Kleine Automatics offer the wearer a timepiece at the exact same retro dimensions as the original Max Bill models from 1861. Curiously, however, the Kleine Automatic departs from the 1861 model in several respects: several models have numerals in the Max Bill font and all have a date window at 3 o’clock. The watches feature the same movement as the larger Automatics and a similarly diverse, albeit not as vast, variety of case options, bracelets, and co...
