The Gropius Mondo Phase TiCTAC Limited Edition is based on the design of the Gropius Mondo Phase, which features the Mondo Phase function, which allows you to enjoy the phases of the moon, a symbol of nature's clock, and features three hands (hour, minute, and second hands) in the three primary colors (yellow, blue, and red) advocated by the German design school Bauhaus.
The three primary colors of yellow, blue, and red are also expressed in the stitching on the strap, and the leather strap with different color stitching on each side creates a unique look. The yellow on the back of the strap also makes a subtle statement when viewed from the side. The watch features a slim, simple design that exudes a mature atmosphere, with features such as a domed crystal, applied indexes, and a matte-finished case.
This stylish and carefully crafted new model, which gives the ancient Mondo Phase watch an urban look, will be available at TiCTAC stores nationwide from July 1st.

2. Walter Gropius (May 18, 1883 – July 5, 1969)
A German architect who represents modernism. He is considered one of the four great masters of modern architecture. He was the founder of the Bauhaus, a world-famous educational institution (school), and served as its first principal from 1919 to 1928.

What is DUFA?
Founded in 1864 as a company that made movements for music boxes and clocks, DUFA rose to prominence in the German watch market in the 1920s. Later, DUFA inherited the legacy of the Bauhaus design school, which originated in Weimar, Thuringia, a city known as the "holiday state" for its tranquil streets, and developed a collection of simple, streamlined watches. This collection of watches, which pursues functional beauty, is beloved for its pride in pinnacle precision manufacturing and the rugged, noble spirit of German timepieces.
The brand name comes from Deutsche Uhrenfabric (German watch factory).
【Brand Features】
1. A watch brand that represents German watch history
In the 1920s, DUFA made a name for itself as a leading brand in the German table and wall clock industry. Even now that the brand has shifted to watches, it continues to captivate fans.
2. Simple and Uncluttered Bauhaus Design
This design is inspired by the masters of the prestigious Bauhaus design school, Germany, who advocated the "elimination of all waste."
3. MADE IN GERMANY
While maintaining the high quality of German-made products, the price range is centered around 30,000 to 50,000 yen. Since many German-made watch brands are expensive, the appeal of this brand is its cost performance, with little competition in domestic distribution.
