Junkers Bauhaus Automatic Watch with Power Reserve and 24hr Subdial 6060-2

High quality. Can't hear it tick, but you can hear the rotor spin. Not a big deal though.

Really nice design. My favorite part is the power reserve dial. Compared to watches at a similar price or even less, however, it feels a bit cheap. I think of it as a very luxurious version of a toy you might get in a Cracker Jack box. Much of this is due to the audible, tinny rattle of the rotor, combined with a face that only needs a little ball and a hole to be like a toy puzzle. The metal band one can get as an option is a $10, unbranded mesh band. I assume the leather band option is similarly cheap. The crown does not feel smooth when winding, and gets tougher as one approaches the reserve limit. My feeling is that one is largely paying for the cool Bauhaus design (that borrows heavily from more expensive Junghans watches), and perhaps the Japanese Miyota/Citizen movement. I think $300 would be more like a fair price for this good-looking but cheap-ish watch.

I received this watch and immediately liked everything about it. The design, hand movement, color, strap, power reserve indicator, font... everything. Then I put it on and started to go about my normal day. It constantly sounded like a cat bell (or some other kind of little jingle). I thought that, if I wore it for a couple hours, whatever the problem was might make itself more apparent and I might be able to tell if it could be fixed. However, it seemed to just be the movement of the kinetic "charger" which was confirmed when I started doing a little further digging online. I never would have expected it to be as audible as it is. From what I am reading online, the general consensus is that the watch is too thin to block the sound from exiting the housing. However, I can't help but feel the metal within the japanese miyota is simply too grainy to prevent so much sound. Most reviews/forums seemed to include people who noticed the sound but could put up with it. Unfortunately, there is no way I would be able to wear this thing with the sound it makes. For the price, I have to give it two stars redeemed only by all other traits being very appealing.

The strap is a little bit hard, and the glass is very easy to get scratched, treat it carefully if you wanna buy it!

Looks beautiful and good quality. I had been looking a watch with this design and finally found a brand new one.

Made in Germany, Mech made in Japan. The bubbled cyrstal top catches light beautifully. Glass back shows off internal mechanism well. Having the power reserve meter is great! you actually know how wound your watch is, instead of guessing. For a more in depth review, checkout this video: [...]

This watch is a fantastic automatic piece that uses modified miyota movement in a beautifully designed and engineered case. The proportions of the markings and sundials are exquisite and the build quality feels phenomenal. The only reservation I would have about purchasing this watch is that you can feel and hear the rotor if you pay attention to it. I like that as I like the fact I'm wearing a machine on my wrist and the feeling is solid and through that you doubt the quality of what you are wearing.In addition, the resilient hesalite crystal not only brings the watch dynamic character, but its functional enough that you don't fear wearing this watch for more then special occasions.

A really excellent watch. The style cant be topped and the size is just perfect, even for someone with relatively small wrists like me. The fact that in addition to being automatic its also hand windable, has hacking, and of course displays the power reserve, for the price it is more than I could ask for. The accurasy is typical for the price, mine runs between 5-10 seconds fast each day with light use. The crystal on the other hand is a double edged sword. Being hesalite, on the one hand it is really easy to scratch. I accidentaly lightly bumped the edge of my watch against an edge and visible marks were made. On the other hand its really easy to get the marks off with polishers like Polywatch, brasso or even white toothpaste. I rubbed a bit of toothpaste on mine for less than a minute and the marks are completely gone. Its also an added bonus that they didnt cheap out on the strap. Its pretty good quality, and I can imagine it will last you a good 1-2 years at least. Ive also heard people complain about the noise the rotor makes, and I am happy to dispell the rumors. Of course it does make some audible winds when you shake it a bit, but nothing that stands out or will irritate you, especially if you are not actively trying to listen for it. All in all an excellent piece well worth the price. If you like the style of it and can appreciate the complications I would absolutely recommend a buy.

one of the best for my collection

CUIDADO!!!!! Si compras desde México, no compres a Steiner Watches. Es un robo el precio que pretende obtener. Podrías pensar que el precio es total con todo e impuestos pero NO! Este vendedor NO RESPETA UNA SOLA POLÍTICA DE AMAZON!!!!!! Cuando te llegue el paquete, DHL te intentará cobrar todos los impuestos, cuotas y cargos aduanales porque EL VENDEDOR NO LO HACE cuando, según las políticas de Amazon México, es su responsabilidad hacerlo. Si decides pagar los impuestos, estarás adquiriendo el reloj, en suma, más del 30% más caro de lo que lo comprarías en cualquier otra página especializada como longisland watches, el mismo Junkers o en ebay con todo y los impuestos.Además, no lo envía en cuatro días como dice su slogan. Ni llega a México en 4 días ni lo envía a México dentro de los 4 días después de que pongas el pedido. A mi me tardó 12 días y un primer contacto en poner el envío y, después, casi un mes en llegar. Cuando llegó me querían cobrar los impuestos. Contacté con él y su respuesta fué: "devuélvalo y, cuando lo tenga aquí (en Austria), le reembolso". Evidentemente tuve que presentar una reclamación de la A a la Z y amazon se está haciendo cargo. Esperemos que con bien.Si no quieres terminar como yo después de un mes sin reloj y sin el dinero, ten MUCHO CUIDADO.Es una pena porque el reloj es precioso.

De style moderne "Bauhaus", simple et design. Le prix public normal est de 400 euros, je ne vois pas pourquoi Amazon indique 550 euros et une réduction !

Ich bin ein begeisterter Uhrenliebhaber und habe mir nach ein paar Recherchendiese schöne Junkers Bauhaus 6060-2 bestellt.Da mir noch eine Automatikuhr mit Gangreserveanzeige fehlte,musste es diese sein.Das Zifferblatt ist dank des leichtgewölbten Hesalitglas sehr übersichtlich gestaltet.Als Alternative stand die Max Bill von Junghans zur Auswahl.Da diese jedoch fast das doppelte kostet und weder vierundzwanzig Stundenanzeigenoch Gangreserveanzeige hat,von einem Glasboden will ich erst gar nicht reden,viel mir die Entscheidung nicht schwer.Der Gangwert der Junkers Bauhaus könnte natürlich besser sein.Da es sich um ein Citizen Miyota Werk mit immerhin Sekundenstopp handelt habe ich soetwas schon geahnt.Ich habe die Uhr seit zwei Tagen und der Vorlauf beträgt+27 Sekunden.Bei meiner Forum Calendrier Chronograph Kaliber 7751 mit Chronometer Zertifizierung für 1700 Euro beträgt der Vorlauf in zwei Tagen +2 Sekunden.Meine Longines Hydro Conquest für 870 Euro hat einen Nachlauf in zwei Tagen von-3 Sekunden.Aber es ist ja bekannt,dass eine neue Automatikuhr sich mehrere Wochen bzw.Monate noch einläuft.Die Hoffnung stirbt zuletzt.Alles in allem ist die Junkers 6060-2 eine so schöne Uhr,dass man mit dem Gangwert ein Auge zudrücken kann.
