Visionary interior
architect and designer Alain Silberstein utilized his exceptional skills
and love of all things Bauhaus to launch his eponymously named watch
brand in 1990. Rightfully celebrated for his stunningly original and
artfully playful timepieces, today these watches remain highly
collectible as the brand closed its doors in 2012.
Created by one of the greatest
contemporary watch designers, innovator, and craftsman, this Bauhaus
timepiece by Alain Silberstein is poised to be a shining addition to
your collection.
Silberstein’s extraordinary watches are
inspired by his strong background in Bauhaus and avant-garde
architecture, and all of his watches convey a stunning visual message.
First, the stainless steel case is
wrapped in brown alligator leather and measures 39.5 mm in diameter and a
healthy 15 mm in height. It rests upon a brown leather strap with a
stainless steel tang buckle. Additional features include a 50 m / 5 atm
water resistance and a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
The pushers and winding crown are
multicolored and sport a variety of shapes. The black-colored dial is
alive in a panoply of excitement. Note the yellow, red, and green hands
that catch the eye and make this a timepiece to cherish. Applied
luminous hour markers (and luminous hour / minute hands) make for easy
viewing in low light.
As a self-winding automatic watch, this
timepiece is driven by the rare Lemania 5100 caliber. An exhibition
case back allows you to see this excellent movement in action.

Alain Silberstein Krono Bauhaus watch here at very attractive price.
