Junghans 1972 Chronoscope Sports Edition Ref. 41/4560.00 | Limited to 200 Pieces Worldwide

The Junghans 1972 Chronoscope Sports Edition is Junghans at full throttle — a bold chronograph rooted in the brand’s Olympic-era timing heritage and built with modern mechanical precision.

Limited to just 200 pieces worldwide, this edition pairs a vivid green dial with a striking black vertical racing stripe and perforated leather strap inspired by classic motorsport gloves. The result is graphic, athletic, and unmistakably German.

This is not Bauhaus minimalism.
This is stopwatch heritage reimagined.

Why It Matters

In 1972, Junghans served as official timekeeper for international sporting events, including the Munich Olympic Games. The 1972 Chronoscope draws directly from that era, oversized proportions, high-contrast legibility, and instrument-style clarity designed for performance.

It wears with presence at 43.3 mm, yet remains balanced and purposeful.
It feels mechanical. Confident. Intentional.

For collectors seeking a limited-edition chronograph with authentic German sporting lineage, this is one of only 200 opportunities worldwide.
