The Barcelona chronograph is a tribute to the iconic German pavilion built for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona. Designed by VanDerRohe, he envisioned the building to be "a zone of tranquility". Through a pioneering approach to understanding form and space, the pavilion used but the cleanest lines and the most opulent of materials to create one of the most important pieces of modernist architecture. In keeping with the same dedication to space, proportion, and the finest eye to detailing, the Barcelona chronograph is no less a magnificent timeless wearable piece of modernist history.
