That's superb. I love the restrained German design language. Would it be correct to describe it as Bauhaus? We don't see nearly enough of it on today's watches. There's so much glitz.

Sinn and Damasko are primarily purpose-driven (utilitarian) brands. The Bauhaus stalwarts are Nomos and Stowa. Although you could argue most of Germany was driven by value, engineering, and design after WW1. Bauhaus 'now' is not bauhaus 'then', etc.

Special mention to Junghans and their Max Bill brand.

Never heard of Damasko, but they look right up my street, thank you.
