I am interested in getting a German watch. I like the idea of having a few different nice watches from all over the world. I've been looking at some of the Form Cs and Chronoscopes from junghans but would love to hear if anyone has recommendations or opinions!?

these are very cool , the single hand is a really interesting design choice. I've seen a few of these but couldn't recall the brand name. Thanks!

Sinn

Sinn

Nice, I was familiar with Sinn but actually didn't realize that Sinn was German ; learn something new every day : )

Junghans is great and very affordable, bit pricier but very very nice is Nomos Glashuette

Nomos Glashuette

Nice! these are cool. I like the Metro , a little bit 'funkier' than my normal selection but maybe that is a good thing.

To add just a few that haven't been mentioned, at various price points:

  • Archimede
  • Lilienthal Berlin
  • Circula
  • Union Glashutte
  • Guinand
  • Defakto
  • Braun

I own Archimede, Braun, and Nomos

Late to this thread but I recently purchased a Schaumburg timepiece with a meteorite dial. It’s pretty amazing.

One and only: Schaffhausen

That's a Swiss brand.

[-] Gilles_D@feddit.de 1 points 9 months ago

It’s actually a Swiss city.

[-] pol@infosec.pub 2 points 9 months ago

Good to know but is it a German brand or not in the end?

[-] Gilles_D@feddit.de 1 points 9 months ago

Since I guess IWC is the brand meant here, it is a Swiss brand founded by an American.

Today I learned, thanks 🙏!
