Over the past few weeks I've been catching up on some reading. About a year ago I received a biography on Charles-Édouard Jeanneret - also known professionally as Le Corbusier. What was interesting to learn was that his father made watch cases for, among others, Longines.
I then moved onto a relatively new book on some of the founding members of the Bauhaus and there was Max Bill who later went on to lead a group of Swiss artists that came to be known as the Allianz.
Of course I am also thinking about the Max Bill watch that Wendy gave me for Christmas in 2002.
This is the more "classic" size, hand wound (and would you really want it any other way?) and perhaps one of my all time favorite designs.
