This is the Junghans "Meister
Handaufzeug" or on behalf of issue in slightly slim by 7.3mm thick and
37.7mm spacious. The design inspiration is a Junghans models anniversary. I
think they did an admirable job. I really like the crown. Nicely sized on
behalf of winding and tucked under the domed crystal.
The movement is a classic, introduced
in 1971 and used in the watches barred near. The 7001 has a 42 hour power
reserve and is lone 2.5mm thick. The movement, designed in an era of lesser
watches, is narrower than the legal action so there's a gap involving the frame
of the junior seconds dial and the outer dial. That sticks barred to me a
smidgen, but otherwise I quite like the design.
The Junghans Meister Handwind, with
junior seconds in a cracked legal action, is reminiscent of the Piaget
Altiplano:
And in addition of the
Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Grande Ultra Thin:
Both of folks cost much more - the JLC
is around $5k, and the Piaget $19k, so by comparison the Junghans is a
fantastic bargain by around 1000 Euros.
One minor drawback is the crystal,
it's Plexiglass with a 'SICRALAN' coating process to harden it a smidgen. Then
again, this is a authentic dress watch and expecting sport watch durability is
stupid. [Ed. Edge: Is it really Paul?]
There are three versions, in steel and
PVD gold:
It has a stone crystal on the back of
the legal action, so you can admire the movement too.
Expected file charge is 950 to 1,050
Euros, which I consider an outstanding deal.
Hublot Big Bang Rose Gold - Overall this is a classic and
restrained Junghans dress watch by a imposing charge. Since the largest part
men don't wear authentic dress watches day by day, it's a blameless place to
run through a smidgen a lesser amount of. No stage costs your whole financial
statement on a watch you wear twice a time, which is in addition why I can
overlook the stone crystal. If you resolve, in statement, wear it each daylight
hours after that I'd commend costs more (also consider the Zenith Elite series)
to make a navy crystal. This is a imposing size and ought to slip underneath
shirt cuffs with improve.
