What an Amazing Museum ❤️👍
Thank You for the fantastic tour, felt we were with you.
The Mega 1 is a revelation, need to check it out in more detail. 1970s-80s Japan and Germany, at the top of their game.
The Upside down Astro Quartz and the German Airforce Chronograph were my favorites 😊
Junghans - the Uhren und Automuseum Schramberg ⏱️🇩🇪
Some weeks ago pkonos has presented his new Junghans timepiece and we discussed about the hometown of the brand and the museum landscape there. As mentioned in that thread there are two Junghans focused museums, the one in the manufacture proper and the U...
Great pictorial!
Thanks for sharing. You gotta love ads from the late 70s/early 80s, that Zeitwunder (Time Commander what a name!), no wonder everything feels boring nowadays
Back in the day…
When it was about progress, exploration and imagination, as opposed to rehashing the past 😉 Fully agree on the ads and names 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Here some cars. The focus is on the entry level mobility from the postwar era, with a lot of motorized wheelchairs catering to the post-WW2 war invalids. There’s many more - but the upload is being a bit temperamental at the moment 😉 ...
Those vehicles have so much character!
The MB and the Champion 250 for me! The three wheelers are a hoot!
Now I know where to look for inspiration when I get to that age:)))
Some are actually quite good looking!
At least interesting…
And go to show that there’s rarely something completely new under the sun 😁

Glad you enjoyed the little virtual tour 😊👍🏻
The Mega 1 was indeed Mega back in the day 😁 Before the days when a different colored dial was considered innovation 😂
Wow thanks for the write up
I really enjoyed reading post like this. Appreciate your time to put this together 🙏🏻
Thank you 🙏, KMII, for remembering my request and for kindly putting together that pictorial! 👍😀
Wonderful, your photos have made me feel like I was there. I was interested by your references to the clock and watch industry in the Black Forest area, and was especially intrigued to see the early M ax Bill model and the Junghans Mega 1 which must've be...
Glad of it gave you a filler background / picture 😊👍🏻
And you enjoyed it. Also posted the cars in response to Larry’s wish above in case you are interested.
A tad different from your common, highly polished brand museums 😊
But quite a treat irrespective 😉 And can combine it with some fine driving roads in the vicinity, too 😁🏁
Thanks for the very enjoyable visit!
Some interesting and nice timepieces here and a nice slice of watchmaking history. Best, Emmanuel
Thanks so much 👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed the virtual tour (pictures were taken years ago unfortunately). The one large piece of Junghans history not featured (possibly in the other museum) is the Lufthansa Boeing 737 ‘Landshut’ hostage situation, where the pilot was almost kille...
I wasn't aware of this hijacking and didn't know that the Junghans logo had been misinterpreted...
Sad story, really. Like you, though, I like his sense of humour!
There was an article about it recently…
Will check if I can find the link somewhere 😉👍🏻
