Ten German Watches Under $1000

[@AnSe902]

I'm from Germany and didn't know that Braun makes watches. 🙂 My watch journey started with a Junghans Max Bill. I absolutely love the Bauhaus design. So of course it had to be a Nomos next. Und another one... 🙃 My grail wach is also a Lange but I'm afraid that will never happen. So I shifted to Glashütte Original instead. They make beautiful watches and build approximately 95% of all parts in Glashütte.

One of my grail chronos has to be a Hanhart. Amazing history and quality! Awesome video my man

Dekla is a German brand who started making parts for other watchmakers and went to also selling watches under their own name. I have a Turbulenz version 2 which is a combination of the fleger style with a sort of retro futuristic take. They make all of their own hands dials and cases, and use a Swiss movement and a handmade German leather strap.

I cannot recommend the 556 enough. I have the MOP version on the 5 link bracelet and I don't think i've seen a watch in the 1-1.5k price range that feels more well built while having such a crisp design language.

Great video, thanks! I totally agree with you on grail watches, I may never be able to afford one but my grail has A Lange und Söhne on it instead of a crown. One thing the Germans do well is Bauhaus design. I am considering a Max Bill Junghans Automatic or a Sternglas Noas Bronze at the moment but you made a few suggestions that has me thinking… so, thanks for making my next watch decision way more complex 😊

You're welcome, it's got me thinking too, I was going to get an Urban Flygraf but all the time spent looking at the nomos movements is giving me second thoughts.

[@kevy1967]

Nomos have some beautiful movements. No watch collection is complete without one. The only problem is which one to choose?

I like this format a lot. The price limit is good as it forces us to look at watches we might not think about. Not everyone has more than $1000 to spend. You might try doing the same thing with a $2000 or $2500 limit, and then $5000. A list of American makers would good, too.

[@ImpulsiveWatches]

Can do!

Circular?

[@eatkosherbacon]

Thanks for this list. I've been wanting to get myself a watch with character to celebrate a milestone which unfortunately isn't prosperity and I might just get one of the entry level Lacos as it's a reasonably priced example of a very definitively German genre of watch.
