Speed, technique, power and experience are vital for success, meaning that a lot of variants need to be accounted for to succeed. Junghans were in attendance of this event last month, from the 25th to the 27th of January to support the 48th FIL Luge World Cup. This is the most important Luge event since the Winter Olympic Games in\u00a0 Pyeongchang, with 24 nations and 120 athletes taking part, hoping to be victories on the ice.<\/p>\n<p>Junghans attend to support all competitors, and record times and runs to find out which athletes are fastest.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>The Junghans WM-Edition 1972 Chronoscope\u00a0of the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2019<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>To recognize the talent on display and the significance of the event, Junghans will be unveiling a brand new limited edition sporty watch. The Junghans WM-Edition 1972 Chronoscope Quartz is themed around the 52nd world championships of the FIS, and so will be limited to a precise amount of 52 units, making this an extremely rare and difficult to get hold of piece. The actual design and colour scheme of the\u00a0Junghans WM-Edition will be inspired by the logo of the event itself, and showcases the colours of red, light blue and white, both in the strap and the dial.
