Introducing Junghans Unveils The Meister Chronoscope with a Steel Bracelet

The German watchmaker releases its icon in a sporty new style with yellow touches

German watchmakers have carved a significant niche in the horological industry, renowned for their craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Among these illustrious brands, Junghans stands out as a paragon of German precision and innovation. Founded in 1861 by Erhard Junghans, the brand made history not only in the realms of clock and watchmaking but also in industry and architecture. By 1903, Junghans had ascended to become the largest clock manufacturer in the world, a testament to their expertise and dedication.

The Meister collection epitomizes the brand's commitment to producing fine, precise, and stylish wristwatches, a legacy that has endured for almost 90 years. Now, Junghans continues to honor this tradition with the new Meister Chronoscope. This timepiece blends classic elegance with a hint of sportiness, featuring color accents in radiant yellow on the dark dial and comes with a sleek steel bracelet.

The Meister Chronoscope boasts a polished stainless steel case measuring 40.7mm in diameter and 13.9mm in height. It features a domed sapphire crystal with an anti-reflection coating and a screwed case back with a mineral crystal, ensuring a water resistance of up to 50 meters. 

The dial features an anthracite hue that darkens towards the edges. For the first time, all 12 hour markers are not only applied but also adapted to the dial's domed shape. A hallmark of the Meister Chronoscope, the bowl-shaped subdials display the 30-minute chronograph at 12 o'clock, the 12-hour chronograph at 6 o'clock, and the small seconds at 9 o'clock, all with yellow lacquered hands. The hour and minute hands are diamond-cut and inlaid with a white luminous substance. In addition to the time, the date and day of the week indicators are shown in windows at 3 o’clock, and are available in German or English depending on the model.

The watch is powered by the Calibre J880.1, an automatic movement based on the ETA Valjoux 7750. It operates at 28,800 vph (4Hz) and offers a 48-hour power reserve. The new multi-link bracelet is brushed and polished and comes in stainless steel with a folding clasp, priced at EUR 2,340, equivalent to AED 9,350.
