Made for those who keep one eye on home and one on the rest of the world, the Junghans Meister Worldtimer (ref. 27/3011.45) is a German automatic watch that brings all 24 time zones onto a single, beautifully ordered dial. Match the 24-hour disc to the cities printed in two rings around it on the matt silver-plated dial, and the hour in any corner of the globe is yours in a glance.

By 1903, Junghans had grown into the largest clock manufacturer in the world, and in 1918 it completed its nine-level terrace building, the Terrassenbau, which today houses the Junghans Terrassenbau Museum. Owned by the Steim family since 2009, Junghans remains based in Schramberg today. Junghans began producing its own movements in the 1930s, and they became the basis of the Meister watches when the collection was launched in 1936. In the heyday of the mechanical wristwatch, Junghans developed many movements in Schramberg and reserved its finest calibers for Meister; it ranked among the largest chronometer makers in the world in 1956 and introduced the J83, its first automatic chronometer caliber, in 1957. The Meister Worldtimer extends nearly a century of reliable Meister timekeeping to every one of the world's 24 time zones.
