Junghans<\/a> will be celebrating their 160th<\/sup> anniversary on the 14th<\/sup> April 2021. In order to celebrate this momentous occasion, the brand have announced the launch of new Junghans 160th<\/sup> anniversary watches.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The brand was founded in Schramberg, Germany in 1861 by Erhard Junghans and Jakob Zeller-Tobler. The Junghans brand became one of the world\u2019s largest clock manufacturers and has since become a popular name in the luxury watch industry. The brand is famed for its use of the finest movements and highest quality materials and have gained an excellent reputation due to the superiority of its timepieces. To celebrate the 160th<\/sup> anniversary, Junghans is remembering the brand\u2019s past to recognise its roots and heritage. However, it is also ensuring to look into the future in order to advance Junghans\u2019 technologies and carry the brand\u2019s name long into the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nMeister Signatur Handaufzug Edition 160<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The\nfirst of the new Junghans 160th<\/sup> Anniversary watches is the Meister\nSignatur Handaufzug Edition 160. Limited to only 160 units, this watch is a true\ncollector\u2019s item. This model is reminiscent of some of the brand\u2019s very first\nwristwatches and has a classic, vintage look. The gold and black colour scheme\nof this watch is timeless, having remained elegant and fashionable for decades.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Junghans<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The\nmatt, silver-plated dial features Erhard Junghans\u2019 signature to remind the\nwearer of the history and heritage of their new wristwatch. The dial exhibits applied\ngold baton hour indices and applied dot minute indices. The gold hour, minute and\nsecond dauphine hands are diamond cut for an elegant touch. The dial is protected\nby domed sapphire crystal that has been treated to be anti-reflective on both\nsides. This ensures for optimal readability, even under the brightest lights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This\nmodel is powered by a historical hand-winding movement of the calibre J620. The\nwatch is a nod to the brand\u2019s past and so uses a traditional, vintage style\nmovement to celebrate 160 years of Junghans\u2019 watchmaking. This movement has a\npower reserve of up to 45 hours. It is housed in an 18-karat gold case that\nmeasures 39mm in diameter and 10.3mm in thickness. The 5-times screw fastened\ncase back is made of anti-reflective sapphire glass to allow the wearer to\nobserve and enjoy the hand-wound movement within. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nMeister Signatur Handaufzug Edition 160 is secured with a black leather strap\nthat fastens with an 18-karat gold buckle. This gives the watch a timeless\nlook, ensuring that it will match any outfit for any occasion. The watch is\nwater-resistant up to 10 bar, meaning that it can be worn for some water-based activities.\nThis makes it an incredibly practical and stylish timepiece that will never go\nout of style. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nFORM A Edition 160<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The\nFORM Collection is one of the most recent Junghans launches, and so the brand\nhas used this model to create a special edition anniversary watch that represents\nthe brand moving into the future.  The\nFORM A Edition 160 is limited to only 600 units, making it very desirable and\ncollectable. The design of this Junghans 160th<\/sup> Anniversary Edition\nwatch embodies modern, German industrial design, enabling the brand to continue\nits journey into the future of watchmaking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Junghans<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The\nbowl shaped matt black dial features striking red detailing at 12 and 6 o\u2019clock\nwith an inscription that reads \u201cJunghans Automatic Black Forest Since 1861\u201d.\nThis phrase reminds the wearer that this timepiece is a piece of Junghans\u2019\nhorological history. The hours are denoted by grey baton indices and a date\naperture features at the 3 o\u2019clock position on the dial. The hour and minute hands\nare filled with a red, environmentally friendly luminous substance and the\nsecond hand had a red tip made of the same substance. The dial is protected by\nflat sapphire crystal that has been treated to be anti-reflective on one side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nFORM A Edition 160 is powered by a self-winding automatic movement of the calibre\nJ800.2. This movement is a relatively modern invention and so is used to\nsymbolise Junghans\u2019 progression into the future. It has a generous power reserve\nof up to 38 hours. A matte black PVD plated stainless steel case houses the\nmovement. It measures 39.3mm in diameter and 9.5mm in height. The dark case\ngives this timepiece a chic, contemporary appearance, propelling it into the\nfuture of horological fashion. The 4-times screw fastened case back features a\nBlack Forest motif to show that Junghans is still deeply connected to its\nhistory despite its continuous progression and advancement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Junghans<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

This model is finished with a leather strap that has a grey wool finish. It features red contrast stitching for an added layer of interest and fastens with a black PVD plated stainless steel pin buckle. The buckle exhibits the \u201cBollenhut\u201d icon. The FORM A Edition 160 is water-resistant up to 5 bar, making it resilient against the small amounts of water it will encounter with everyday wear. This watch, and its modern design, will be an eye-catching addition to any outfit, making it a desirable limited-edition timepiece. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FORM A Edition 160 also comes in a black and beige colour scheme. This version of the watch is finished with a brown leather strap for a classic, vintage look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
