max bill MEGA Solar – Its minimalist design is timeless, and all of the power it requires is provided naturally from the sun. Due to its titanium composition, the watch is surprisingly light and has an extremely pleasant feel on the skin. A state-of-the-art radio-controlled movement, perpetual calendar and effortless adjustment of the time zones are included for added comfort. Time zones can be set either using the crown or in a matter of seconds via Junghans’ own time signal from the Junghans MEGA App. The design of the max bill MEGA Solar is also very indicative of its sustainability: That quintessential, minimalistic Bauhaus style is simply timeless – conforming with the fashion of yesterday, today, tomorrow and beyond.
Manufacturing
The Junghans watch brand takes pride in a long history of tradition running hand-in-hand with modernity, resulting in more than a century and a half of quality German watch-making precision. This Junghans watch collection brings together feature pieces from both the Bauhaus-inspired Max Bill and Meister lines as well as several exclusive 1972 Chronoscope Solar Powered watches and the Junghans Force Mega Solar Ceramic Radio Controlled Solar Powered Watch. Junghans watches celebrate the acknowledged Swiss history of fine luxury watch creation while bringing new and original design ideas and technologies to the table. Styles range from classic dress watches to sportier numbers, yet each one features the high standards of quality you can rely on from Junghans watches.
Quality Management
Quality management from the word go means: Before a watch enters production, the prototypes and serial parts are subjected to optical and technical tests. Using the design drawings as a basis, each individual component is tested for observance of tolerances and dimensions. Optical standards defined by us, such as colour values, material properties and structure, also require production approval. Only when all tests have been successfully completed can we guarantee maximum wearing comfort. Our quality standards are consistently realised in this process. We are extremely exacting, you should be, too.

A classic Bauhaus design from a long established manufacture. Silvered dial and markings combined with domed crystal, slim elegant pushers and 40mm SS case are just perfect. I’m a passionate collector and I’m proud to have this as a long admired addition.
Arrived without drama and works perfectly out of the box. Ignore the poster who did not understand an automatic movement! I might add that the strap is very nice as is the box and instruction book.
Hanna Moore –
A beautiful timepiece and a design classic. A previous review claims that the watch sounded like it had loose pieces inside, It is an automatic movement and what he heard/felt was the internal rotor spinning with the movement of his wrist and that is how the watch is automatically wound.
Do not be put off by his review, it isn’t a fault.

Love this watch. I think the movement is a Valjoux 7750 which is a world class movement. It is not a Quartz.
There is a lesser make that is Quartz and it too is very attractive with a nice Myota movement which is high quality Japanese.
