What is the Bauhaus style?

The Bauhaus style is characterized by plain geometric shapes such as rectangles and spheres that are devoid of ornamentation. The Bauhaus was a progressive German art and design school founded by the architect Walter Gropius that operated from 1919 to 1933. The goal of the Bauhaus was to erase the distinction between art and craft, while embracing the use of new technologies and materials. The school moved from Weimar in 1925 to the city of Dessau, where it enjoyed its heyday under Gropius, then Hannes Meyer and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Find a collection of Bauhaus style furniture, paintings and decorative objects on 1stDibs.

How do I adjust a Patek Philippe with moon-phase functionality?

How you adjust a Patek Philippe watch with moon-phase functionality is going to depend on the model. Each PP watch with a complication that allows for moon-phase tracking comes with instructions to guide you through the process. A calculator tool on the Patek Philippe website, featured in the “Settings” section, can be of help. The tool shows you how to position the dial to begin accurately tracking the phases of the moon according to today’s date. To use it, simply enter the current month, day and year and press the "calculate" button. Shop a range of Patek Philippe watches with moon-phase functionality on 1stDibs.
