JUNGHANS FORM A EDITION 160 Limited Black Forest Mens Watch Ref 27/4131.00
Junghans Germany 1861
One anniversary, three distinct ways to experience time. This rare collector set unites a classic automatic, a radio-controlled MEGA, and a regulator in a complete expression of Max Bill’s enduring design language.
The Junghans Max Bill Edition Set 60 27/4109.00 is one of the most complete expressions of the Max Bill legacy. Created to mark 60 years of the first Max Bill wristwatch, this limited collector collection brings together three distinct interpretations of time: a classic automatic, a radio-controlled MEGA with small seconds, and an automatic regulator.
Limited to 1,060 sets worldwide, each trio is presented in its own individual cases and brought together in a special Edition box. The three watches share the same disciplined visual language—matte white dials, anthracite PVD cases, light grey straps, and carefully placed green and orange accents—while each approaches the display of time in a completely different way.
This is not three color variations of the same watch. It is a thoughtful study of how time can be displayed: conventionally, with ultra-precise radio-controlled technology, and through the deliberately separated layout of a regulator dial.
For a Junghans or Bauhaus collector, the Edition Set 60 offers a rare opportunity to own the complete anniversary concept exactly as it was intended. The shared design makes the watches feel like a family; their different movements and displays make each one genuinely rewarding in its own right.
Max Bill Automatic Edition 60 — 27/4108.02: The purest and most traditional of the three. Its automatic J800.1 movement, central hours, minutes, and seconds, plus date display, make it the most familiar expression of the Max Bill design.
Max Bill MEGA Kleine Sekunde Edition 60 — 58/4100.02: The technical piece. A multi-frequency radio-controlled J101.66 movement, perpetual calendar, Junghans MEGA App setting, and small seconds display bring contemporary precision to a restrained 38 mm case.
Max Bill Regulator Edition 60 — 27/3190.02: The most expressive of the trio. Central minutes are paired with separate hour and seconds displays, transforming the familiar Max Bill dial into a precise, architectural regulator composition.
All three watches feature a matte white dial with a discreet green luminous “60” integrated into the minute track. Anthracite hands and orange luminous accents create a controlled touch of Bauhaus color, echoed by the orange leather lining on each light grey strap.
The 38 mm anthracite PVD-coated steel cases keep the collection visually cohesive, while double anti-reflective convex sapphire crystals preserve the clear, graphic quality of each dial.
