LIMITED EDITION · 200 pieces only. Once this run sells out, this dial is retired for good — never remade.
Bauhaus Dial. Printed Markers. Matte White. Date at 6H.
A dial that lives by a single century-old idea: form follows function. Geometric Arabic numerals, a printed minute track, and nothing else — no applied markers, no logo flourishes, no decorative weight. The face is the structure, and the structure is the face.
The numeral layout is the detail to notice. 12-2-4-6-8-10 — even hours only, set in an architectural sans-serif drawn for legibility rather than tradition. Odd hours sit as long printed indices, which keeps the face balanced without crowding it. Every mark on the dial earns its place.
The date sits at 6 o'clock, in the slot where the 6 numeral would otherwise live — the 6 has been removed and the date window placed in its position. It's the most architecturally symmetrical place a date can go on this layout: dead-centre below the pinion, on the dial's vertical axis. The window is small and square — no painted frame, no border, just a clean cutout in the matte white surface. Form follows function, taken literally.
Designed to pair with the Bauhaus 33 Ultra Thin case.
This dial was drawn alongside our Bauhaus 33mm Ultra Thin Watch Case — the thinnest case in our Ultra Thin line at 9.93mm. As a standard 28.5mm dial it fits any case built for that size, but the Bauhaus 33 is its intended aesthetic partner.
Form follows function.
The Bauhaus design language stripped to a dial: geometric numerals, a printed minute track, a discreet logo. No ornament, no fluting, no applied markers — every black mark drawn for legibility, not decoration.
Even-hour layout.
Numerals at 12-2-4-6-8-10, with long printed indices at the odd hours. The asymmetry is deliberate — it keeps the face balanced without crowding the centre, and gives the dial its architectural rhythm.
Date at 6H needs the right NH35.
This dial requires the special-order NH35 Date @ 6H — a non-standard variant where the date wheel sits at 6 o'clock instead of the usual 4:30. A standard NH35 won't line up. We recommend the white-wheel version for this matte white dial — the wheel disappears into the dial body, leaving only the date numeral visible.
Fits 3 and 4 o'clock crown builds.
Four dial legs as supplied — clip two to suit your case. One dial works for both modern 3 o'clock and classic SKX-style 4 o'clock crown positions.

Heads up — a dial is one part of the build
Hands. A dial needs a matching set of hands to tell time. For this dial we recommend our Pencil Hands in Polished Blue — the polished blue against matte white is a tonal contrast that holds the Bauhaus discipline while adding a single, deliberate accent.
Movement. This dial needs the Seiko NH35 Date @ 6H, White Wheel — a special-order NH35 with the date wheel repositioned to 6 o'clock. The white wheel disappears into the matte white dial body, leaving only the date numeral visible. A black-wheel version exists too — it fits mechanically but frames the window with a dark border that breaks the printed-only discipline of the dial.
