"Minimalism in motion."
This watch brings together two icons: the functional purity of Bauhaus design and the mechanical heartbeat of a Swiss-based chronograph movement. With its crisp white dial, pared-down layout, and bright red chrono hand, the Max Bill Chronoscope Bauhaus turns essentialism into elegance.
Why It Matters
Max Bill’s vision lives on in this chronoscope—an unusually clean take on a complication known for clutter. The subdial symmetry, domed sapphire, and black leather strap deliver presence without pretense. This is Bauhaus for the modern wrist.

The Wearing Experience
Bold yet balanced. This 40 mm case sits perfectly on the wrist thanks to short lugs and curved lines.

A chronograph that’s surprisingly wearable, unapologetically refined.
