Junghans Max Bill Mega Solar Ref. 59/2020.02 | 38 mm | Bauhaus Solar Classic

Precision, Reduced to Its Essentials.

The Junghans Max Bill MEGA Solar 59/2020.02 brings one of modern design’s purest watch forms into the connected age. Its matte white solar dial, lightweight titanium case, and black leather strap preserve the calm clarity of Max Bill’s original aesthetic while placing extraordinary accuracy quietly in the background.

Powered by light and synchronized by radio signal, the MEGA Solar is designed to keep time with minimal intervention. A discreet date display, perpetual calendar, and smartphone-connected setting make it a remarkably intelligent watch without ever compromising its visual restraint.

Why This Reference

This is the most technical expression of the classic Max Bill design. Rather than adding visual complexity, Junghans places its innovation beneath the surface: solar charging, multi-frequency radio control, automatic time-zone adjustment, and a perpetual calendar all work in service of an exceptionally simple dial.

The titanium case makes it notably lighter than a comparable steel watch, giving this reference an especially effortless, everyday character.

On the Wrist

At 38 mm and only 9 mm thick, the case is slim, balanced, and exceptionally comfortable. The matte white dial remains highly legible, while luminous dots provide a subtle point of visibility in lower light.

Finished with a vegetable-tanned calf leather strap and titanium buckle, it feels refined but never precious—an ideal choice for someone who values thoughtful design, lightness, and everyday precision.
