Design Philosophy

Braun watches embody Dieter Rams' legendary 'less, but better' philosophy. Designed by Rams and Dietrich Lubs, these timepieces prioritize maximum legibility through minimal visual noise, featuring clean Helvetica typography, elongated hash marks, and the iconic yellow seconds hand that became a signature Braun element across their clock and watch collections.

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.'

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.
