Braun Unisex Watch AW5
Braun Unisex Watch AW5
Over the past 60 years, Braun has become an institution in the design community and a frequent reference point in the education of each new generation of creatives. That recognition also extends to the world’s most renowned design awards. Having received a total of 18 awards in the past 5 years, these are a key indication that Braun watches and clocks are continuing that longstanding legacy.
Designed in Germany at the Braun headquarters in Kronberg, working in the same rooms where many Braun classics have been created. At the heart of Braun Design is the philosophy to make things useful, meaningful, and beautiful with as little design as possible.
Braun prides itself on designing products that are timeless in their design and built to last. Braun watches and clocks are long-term companions and in an age of prosperity and saturation, the benefit of fewer, better products has become self-evident.

Spec wise isn’t that good for the price; just mineral crystal, basic swiss parts Ronda movement, snap on caseback, 3atm WR, no lume and acceptable genuine leather strap.
But design wise, it can be directly linked to the desk of a certain Dieter Rams and Dietrich Lubs. It’s the evolution of the AW10 with an even more curated minimalist look that still looks more modern than many watches nowadays. Amazingly, the AW50 was designed and released in 1991 and relaunched in 2017
This is a nice watch that I gave to my 12 year old son. It’s the perfect size for him and has worked with absolutely no problems.
Seem very expensive for what is is though.
