Junghans Max Bill MEGA - 58/4821.46
About this timepiece
Exceptionally precise and beautifully restrained, the Junghans Max Bill MEGA (ref. 58/4821.46) unites Max Bill's design with Junghans' connected radio-controlled technology. This radio-controlled watch runs on the J101.65 movement, keeping strikingly accurate time on a matt silver-plated dial framed by a 38 mm stainless steel case and a fine Milanaise bracelet.
Accuracy was central to Max Bill's thinking as well, and the dial design keeps your attention on the time itself. The seconds are displayed precisely in half-second steps, the date is shown on the dial, and the time can be set conveniently via the crown or the Junghans MEGA App. Luminous substance on the minute track and hands, an anti-reflective sapphire crystal, a screwed case back and water resistance up to 5 bar round out a slim 9 mm watch with a safety steel buckle on its Milanaise bracelet.

Timepiece History
Junghans was founded on April 14, 1861, in Schramberg in Germany's Black Forest, when Erhard Junghans and his brother-in-law, Jakob Zeller-Tobler, set up a firm making parts for large Black Forest clocks; the first complete Junghans clocks followed in 1866. By 1903, Junghans had grown into the largest clock manufacturer in the world, and in 1918 it completed its nine-level terrace building, the Terrassenbau, which today houses the Junghans Terrassenbau Museum. Owned by the Steim family since 2009, Junghans remains based in Schramberg today.
Junghans began working with the Bauhaus-trained artist and architect Max Bill in 1956, and in 1961 Bill designed Junghans' first line of mechanical wristwatches, still produced in nearly the same form.
Junghans also brings decades of radio-controlled expertise to this watch: in 1985 it introduced the first serially produced radio-controlled table clock, in 1990 its Mega 1, with a futuristic asymmetric case designed with FROG Design, became the first radio-controlled wristwatch, and in 2018 Junghans developed the connected radio-controlled movement J101.

Care Instructions
Daily Care
• Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft microfiber cloth after wear to remove oils, dust, and fingerprints.
Cleaning
• Use a soft cloth lightly dampened with water and mild soap for occasional cleaning.
• Dry the watch thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.
What to Avoid
• Avoid bleach, chlorine, harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, and household cleaning products.
• Do not use polishing compounds unless specifically recommended by the watch manufacturer.
Stainless Steel and Titanium
• Light surface marks may develop over time with normal wear.
• Titanium can show cosmetic marks differently than stainless steel because of its lighter weight and surface characteristics.
Water Resistance
• Always follow the water resistance rating listed by the manufacturer for your specific watch.
• Water resistance is not permanent and can decrease over time as seals and gaskets age.
• Make sure the crown is fully pushed in or screwed down before water exposure.
• Do not operate the crown, pushers, or other controls while the watch is underwater unless the manufacturer specifically states that it is safe to do so.
• Avoid hot tubs, saunas, and very hot showers, as heat and rapid temperature changes can affect the watch seals.
• Have the water resistance checked periodically, especially after battery replacement, case opening, or service.
Storage
• Store your watch in a clean, dry place when not in use.
• Keep it separated from other jewelry or watches to help prevent scratches.
