A pinnacle of late-20th-century German functionalism, the AB 313 SL is a masterwork by Dietrich Lubs. This "Type 4784" model is highly prized for its protective folding cover, which opens to reveal a classic World Time Zone Map—a hallmark of Braun’s travel-centric engineering. Featuring the iconic yellow second hand and a precision-slanted face for perfect legibility, it is a definitive piece for any Dieter Rams-era design collection.
