The term "Bauhaus" was founded by architect Walter Gropius in Weimar located in Germany from the early 1920s; that bring forth minimalism, simplicity and elegance into art and architecture. Applying these elements into timepieces, the Bauhaus 38 has clean minimalistic dial that makes it elegant enough to be dressy and simple enough for daily wear. It is full of heritage with some modern attitude.
The Arabic hour markers is reminiscent of the 1970s typeface designed by Ed Benguiat and Victor Caruso. This can be found in other German Brethrens like Nomos and Stowa.
The Bauhaus 38 Fresh White 4H127 has a refreshing crispy white dial that gives it a clean, no-nonsense feel.

The design also features a date window at 3 and flaring steel hands, keeping things the old school way without being too playful.
Onto the case, the Bauhaus 38 as its name implies has a 38mm case and mere thickness of only 9.5mm. It features a full polished bezel and case along with arched lugs, giving it a classic 1930s dress watch vibe. While it showcases a more traditional form, Aristo decides to bring in some modern element by having an opened caseback for the wearer to admire the Swiss Made ETA2824-2 automatic at work.
Like all Aristo watch, the Bauhaus 38 is made specially for Gnomon Watches with a flat sapphire crystal.
