German watchmaking comes to Greenpoint. Since 1861, Junghans has been crafting some of the world's most meticulously-made timepieces. A century later, a collaboration with Bauhaus designer Max Bill saw the creation of his legendary wristwatch, now considered an icon of minimalistic design.

Max Bill was one of the most unusual artists of our time. Acknowledged as an universal genius, he left behind an extensive portfolio of creations. This includes one of the most fascinating watch series ever designed – the clocks and wristwatches he created for Junghans – and which remain practically unchanged today. This design's uncluttered face and slim profile are engineering perfection to house its automatic movement under sapphire crystal, with luminescent hour and minute hands and day of the month.
An architect, sculptor, painter and product designer, Max Bill was strongly influenced by the Bauhaus philosophy - stripping back to the bare essentials. In 1961, he debuted his now-renowned wristwatches, now a supreme example of considered design untouched by time.
