Design Philosophy

Autodromo blends mid-century vintage character with contemporary minimalist sensibility, creating automotive-inspired timepieces that evoke the golden age of motorsport. Founder Bradley Price approaches design like a filmmaker, creating atmosphere and nostalgia rather than direct historical copies, filtering racing heritage through personal memories and emotional connections.

Unimatic - Modello Uno UC1 Classic

Unimatic

🇮🇹 IT · $600-$1,200

Unimatic creates watches that embody 'less is more' - stripping away unnecessary decoration to reveal functional, tool-oriented timepieces. Founded by two industrial designers from Milan, the brand draws inspiration from classic dive watches of the 1950s (Blancpain, Rolex, Omega) but eliminates ornamentation in favor of stark, purposeful clarity. Their ideal is the paper clip: nothing unnecessary, perfectly functional, built to last generations.

Junghans - max bill Automatic

Junghans

🇩🇪 DE · $300-$3,000

Junghans embodies the Bauhaus principle of 'form follows function' through clean, logical design. Beginning in the 1950s with Bauhaus-trained designer Max Bill, the brand established a design language focused on exceptional legibility, purposeful elements, and the rejection of unnecessary ornamentation. Every component serves a specific function, creating watches that are 'as timeless as can be conceived without forgetting the time.'
