What is a Bauhaus watch
A Bauhaus watch is more than just a timekeeping device; it's a reflection of the principles of the Bauhaus movement. Originating in Germany in the early 20th century, Bauhaus design emphasizes simplicity, functionality, and minimalism. A Bauhaus watch typically features clean lines, geometric shapes, and a focus on practicality. The dial is often uncluttered, with easy-to-read markers and hands. Bauhaus watches prioritize form follows function, meaning that every element of the design serves a purpose without unnecessary ornamentation. This design ethos creates timepieces that are elegant in their simplicity, yet highly functional and timeless in their appeal. By embracing the Bauhaus philosophy, watchmakers like BOTTA honor the legacy of this influential design movement while creating modern interpretations that resonate with contemporary aesthetics.
