“The ‘Max Bill watch’ as it is known is one of the 20th Century’s most famous watch designs. Clearly conceived by designer and architect Max Bills in Switzerland, the watch was a staple of goodness back when it was originally made in the 1960s. Since then you could buy versions of the watch in its pure form as made by German Junghans (who I believe is owned by Seiko). For 2010 Junghans offers up a more modern, but still retro version of this retro classic. There are three versions of the watches and most exciting is their more modern dimensions (save for the still small manually wound version).”

The influence of the Bauhaus is inescapable.

I’m digging these super simple watches from Uniform Wares.

“Uniform Wares products have an intentionally paired down form that is characterized by distinct colour; this helps define their purpose, how they are used, what for and by whom,” says company co-founder and designer, Patrick Bek.

I would argue that some of the tick marks could be removed (really only needing marks at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o’clock), but that would take away from the British wall clock influence.

Australian designer Ben McCarthy has designed a watch where the hours are marked by creases in its pressed-steel face.

Timepiece Design Concept of the Day: “Progress Bar Clock” by mintpass.

A “timing belt” hooked up to a drive shaft (which, in turn, is connected to a motor) moves a strip of blue film across the screen in a precise fashion. Along the way, “schedule tags” trigger alarms reminding the user of daily tasks.
