I'm contemplating a Max Bill design by Junghans.Any1 here ever seen the real thing??My problem is I'm used to being able to get some hands on experience w/ a purchase 1st & this is impossible as no 1 sells these in my area & I believe nowhere can you get a hands on w/ this particular brand.I'm used to pretty big watches so this 1 is a little out of my size frame.![]() Any inputs would be appreciated.

Bought mine at the Wempe in Paris. I have had many watches come and go, but this one is a keeper. Arguably one of the most beautiful chronos around. I picked the black over the white dial by an eyelash. A smaller watch, but doesn't look small because of the no bezel case. It is very slight and light on the wrist. Feels like wearing vintage. I only wear mine when i have a sleeve, as the potential for scratching the acrylic crystal freaks me out. ![]()

have seen them a couple of times at jewelers here in N.E.Ohio and have been meaning on going to their US distributor here in Chagrin Falls,Ohio which is about 30 mins. or so from my house,but am waiting for the new Mx Bills to get in stock,like pictured below in vintage arabic dial and strap.I really like the black dial model chronoscope as well...classic Bauhaus!![]() Attachment: max bill.jpg (Downloaded 58 times)

History and quality of the Junghams is A-ok, William. But it is small and thin and in your stash of Pams and Rollies, this piece might not get lots of sun. On the other hand, for dress events, this one would be perfect.
