Junghans Max Bill Mega Solar Ref. 59/2020.02 | 38 mm | Bauhaus Solar Classic
Junghans Watches – German Watchmaking Since 1861
The Junghans Max Bill Bauhaus edition celebrates the architectural heritage that shaped modern design. The red accents on the dial reference the distinctive red doors of the Bauhaus building in Dessau a striking detail that would have immediately caught the attention of Max Bill during his first visit.
Turning the watch over reveals a thoughtful continuation of the theme: a Bauhaus-inspired window motif engraved into the case back, partially revealing the movement beneath. The watch becomes a small architectural object a dialogue between geometry, light, and mechanical precision.
Few watches express the Bauhaus philosophy as clearly as the Max Bill collection. Clean lines, perfect legibility, and thoughtful details define the design. In this model, the lightweight titanium case adds modern comfort, while the solar-powered radio-controlled movement ensures remarkable long-term precision.
It is a watch for those who appreciate design history as much as contemporary practicality understated, intelligent, and quietly distinctive.
At 38 mm, the titanium case wears light and balanced, making it ideal for everyday wear. The domed crystal and curved dial create subtle reflections that give the minimalist design depth. Red accents on the hands add just enough visual interest without disrupting the clarity that defines Bauhaus watches.
The result is a refined watch that feels equally appropriate in professional settings or relaxed everyday environments.
