Founded in 1861 in the Black Forest region of Germany, Junghans is a brand synonymous with precision, innovation, and timeless design. Originally established by Erhard Junghans, the brand began by producing clock components before expanding into full watch production in 1866. Over the years, Junghans has become a trailblazer in the horological world, renowned for its commitment to quality and craftsmanship.
Junghans’ watches are celebrated for their blend of traditional German engineering and modern design aesthetics. Notably, the brand's collaboration with Swiss designer Max Bill in the 1950s led to the creation of the iconic Max Bill collection, which remains a symbol of Bauhaus-inspired design to this day. The Meister collection, another hallmark of Junghans, showcases the brand's mastery of mechanical watchmaking, featuring elegant designs that have stood the test of time.
With a legacy that includes pioneering developments such as the first German quartz wristwatch and the introduction of radio-controlled timekeeping, Junghans continues to innovate while honoring its rich heritage. Today, Junghans watches are revered for their understated elegance, precision, and reliability, making them a preferred choice for watch enthusiasts around the world.
Whether through the minimalistic lines of the Max Bill series or the sophisticated detailing of the Meister collection, Junghans remains dedicated to producing timepieces that are both beautiful and functional, embodying the best of German watchmaking tradition.
The telemeter and tachymeter display were first combined in a single Junghans chronograph in 1951. This legacy is now being perpetuated with the Meister Telemeter, a new retro release of the classic chronograph. An extremely beautiful watch, the Meister Telemeter is as elegant as it is technical and sporty, and just as relevant today as it was upon its original release nearly 70 years ago.
