The Junghans 41/4818.02 reflects Max Bill’s pursuit of minimalism and modernity, where clarity of design is inseparable from everyday function. His famous quote—“Watches... as timeless as can be conceived without forgetting the time”—is embodied in the watch’s highly logical dial layout, which prioritizes readability, balance, and pure Bauhaus discipline.
At its core, the self-winding Junghans J800.1 automatic movement with a 38-hour power reserve harnesses energy from the wearer’s motion, ensuring continuous operation without manual winding. The matt silver-plated dial remains clean and restrained, with a precise minute track and hands treated with environmentally friendly luminous material, offering subtle visibility while preserving the design’s understated elegance.
The 38 mm stainless steel case with PVD coating and a 10 mm height gives it a modern, refined presence on the wrist. Finished with a leather strap and PVD-coated stainless steel buckle, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, and 5 bar water resistance, it delivers everyday durability with quiet sophistication—an enduring expression of functional beauty in true Max Bill style.
