Men’s Max Bill Quartz Watch
Who was Max Bill?
Max Bill was one of the most distinctive designers of the last century. An architect, sculptor and product designer, he studied at the Bauhaus in Dessau. His association with Junghans began in the 1950’s when he was commissioned to design a kitchen clock for the company. In 1961, Max Bill started to design purist watches for the brand and Junghans ensured that the watches were at the cutting edge of technology. Max Bill is one of Europe’s greatest timepiece designers. He constantly strove for clarity and precision in his designs. Today these same values are still evident and underpin the entire max bill collection from Junghans.
max bill Quartz
The max bill Quartz has a 38mm PVD coated stainless steel case with a large dial opening so you see less of the bezel and more of the dial. Since the time is the most important feature of any watch, Max Bill deliberately pared the case back to it’s simplest form.
The domed hard plexiglass accentuates the historical charm of the watch. Coated with sicralan to ensure scratch-resistance, it is practical too. Underneath, the minimalist dial is matt white with black printed arabic hour markers arranged centrally with the minutes displayed on the outer edge. These rounded numerals were specially created by Max Bill and are a strong part of the DNA of the collection. Printed minute markers also give the watch the graphic look which is so typical of the max bill line.
The hands are deliberately slim designed with functionality and accuracy in mind. The hour and minute hands as well as the quarter markers on the dial are coated with a luminous Super-Luminova substance to ensure that the dial can be read in dim light.

I have once again nothing but praise for suzie and the team ..had a one off custom strap made …it is exceptional.
Suzie has just helped me on another custom strap matching the colour of the watch hands to the stitching on the strap…this is real service.
So helpful and professional. I have had several custom straps from Suzie and the team, always willing to go the extra mile to help . the products are beautifully made and of the highest quality. I had a custom stitched bayswater made that is absolutely outstanding and has made an already great watch into something really special.
