Considering the junghans meister pilot chronograph is based on a watch from 1955 it feels as new and innovative as any watch i ve seen recently.

A couple of years ago i had the pleasure of seeing a pre basel preview of the junghans meister telemeter chronoscope. I also noticed it picks up the color cast of your present lighting so under certain lighting it looks quite creamy in tone. Amazon the watches of the form collection have a convex shape which makes the watch look flat and slimmer.
