Brand vibe
Founded in 1991 in Freiburg, Germany by Alexander Burhans (Bauhaus designer who clearly looked at a Junghans Max Bill and thought "yeahhhh, but what if the numbers weren't where you expected?" Guy relocated to Biel, Switzerland in 2003 to do the Swiss Made thing properly. The house move is to take the Bauhaus brief seriously. Off-axis indices, asymmetric dial layouts, lots of white space, the kind of typography that feels designed by someone who owns more design monographs than ties. The Original "O" series even bagged a Red Dot Design Award, which is the design world's way of telling you it's good without having to read anything. Typical artist stuff.

Not enough information for a duty figure
The fields above are reported facts. None of them establishes customs origin: that depends on the watch's tariff classification and a substantial-transformation analysis, and what you actually pay also depends on the seller's shipping and duty-payment terms. Ask the seller for the country of origin and whether duties are collected at checkout, and confirm rates against official sources.
