Hands-on with Max Bill Watches by Junghans
Max Bill was a renowned Swiss designer, graphic artist, and architect who is remembered, first and foremost, for his highly influential body of work. Though he studied at the Bauhaus school in Dessau, Germany, it would be a disservice to simply call him a student of the Bauhaus. Outspoken and brash, Bill expressed his distaste for shallow design; in fact, he often blamed American designers for the rise of what he called the "commodity aesthetic." But he also understood the fine balance between form and function, often citing the significance of beauty in his designs. He dedicated most of his career to developing long-lasting forms, blending style and utility to create work that was, in many ways, the spiritual successor to the Bauhaus movement.In 1956, Max Bill began a collaboration that would cement his name in the world of horology. Junghans, a German watch company founded in 1871, approached Bill to design a set of watches and clocks for the brand. Fascinated by time, Bill accepted

Cleaning the watch
AD in the local Mall told me today, he always puts the entire watch in his ultrasonic cleaner. I know it has been discussed here before, and I was told never to put the watch head in the cleaner, only the bracelet. Question, if someone trusted the watch to this clown, and he ruined it, is he responsible for it? Or could he just say, it is coincidence that it broke down after he cleaned it in the ultrasonic cleaner? Actually, I have to confess, I always used to put my watches in the cleaner too, until someone here was kind enough, (as everyone here is) to inform me of the dangers of the vibrations in the cleaner. Anyway, do you think this guy is liable, or is there some clause that excuses him? I mean, what could actually happen anyway if this cleaning solution gets inside the watch mechanism? Can't a watchmaker just take it apart and dry it out and put it back together again? I realize that service is not free, but I mean, it won't actually ruin the watch, will it?ThanksRob

58152
Does anybody know how to set the year on this model (58152)? There are two buttons above/below the crown but the top one sets the month and the bottom one sets the day of the month. There are also those two small buttons on the left side but I don't have anything small enough to push them yet. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Aquanaut and Nautilus owners: clasp placement
To all of the aquanaut and nautilus owners, I have a question: do you keep the top and the bottom straps or bracelets equal in length, or do you keep one side shorter than the other? Do you line up the clasp with any particular part of your wrist?
