Top 2 in Top 12 Best German Watch Brands
In 1861, Erhard Junghans founded the business that bears his name. With an output of more than 3 million clocks that year, Junghans was the largest clock manufacturer in the world in 1903.
Many years later, the company produced its first wristwatch, setting it on the way to becoming one of the major players in the watchmaking business in the 1950s.
Max Bill, a Siwss designer, worked with Junghans to develop some of their most recognizable watches, which were influenced by the Bauhaus movement. This is how Junghans is known today.
