Bauhaus Dial. Printed Markers. Matte White.

A dial that lives by a single century-old idea: form follows function. Geometric Arabic numerals, a printed minute track, and nothing else — no applied markers, no logo flourishes, no decorative weight. The face is the structure, and the structure is the face.

The numeral layout is the detail to notice. 12-2-4-6-8-10 — even hours only, set in an architectural sans-serif drawn for legibility rather than tradition. Odd hours sit as long printed indices, which keeps the face balanced without crowding it. Every mark on the dial earns its place.

This is the opposite of an applied-index dial. Where polished metal markers are about light play and ornament, a printed-only dial is about discipline — the willingness to leave a surface clean and let the typography carry the watch. On the wrist, it reads quieter, flatter, more confident.

Designed to pair with the Bauhaus 33 Ultra Thin case.
This dial was drawn alongside our Bauhaus 33mm Ultra Thin Watch Case — the thinnest case in our Ultra Thin line at 9.93mm. As a standard 28.5mm dial it fits any case built for that size, but the Bauhaus 33 is its intended aesthetic partner.

Form follows function.
The Bauhaus design language stripped to a dial: geometric numerals, a printed minute track, a discreet logo. No ornament, no fluting, no applied markers — every black mark drawn for legibility, not decoration.

Even-hour layout.
Numerals at 12-2-4-6-8-10, with long printed indices at the odd hours. The asymmetry is deliberate — it keeps the face balanced without crowding the centre, and gives the dial its architectural rhythm.

No-date layout, NH38 recommended.
A clean, symmetrical face with no date window. We recommend the NH38 (no-date caliber) so there's no unused date function behind the dial — though a date movement like the NH35 or NH36 also works if you'd rather keep a date-capable build.

Fits 3 and 4 o'clock crown builds.
Four dial legs as supplied — clip two to suit your case. One dial works for both modern 3 o'clock and classic SKX-style 4 o'clock crown positions.

Heads up — a dial is one part of the build

Hands. A dial needs a matching set of hands to tell time. For this dial we recommend our Pencil Hands in Polished Blue — the polished blue against matte white is a tonal contrast that holds the Bauhaus discipline while adding a single, deliberate accent.

Movement. A no-date caliber (NH38) is recommended for this dial — though NH35 or NH36 also work. The movement is sold separately and is the engine of the build.

Are the markers printed or applied?

Printed. Every mark on this dial — numerals, indices, minute track, logo — is printed flat on the surface. There are no raised metal markers. That's not a cost-saving choice; it's the design choice. Bauhaus dials are about the discipline of letting typography do the work, not metal ornament.

Why are there only even-hour numerals?

It's a deliberate Bauhaus layout choice. Printing all twelve numerals would crowd the face and pull the dial toward a busier, more ornamental character. With even hours numbered and odd hours represented by long printed indices, the dial keeps its rhythm and its breathing room — the typography stays the feature, not a wall of digits.

Why does the dial have four legs?

The dial ships with four legs so it fits two different crown positions. Seiko movements come in 3 o'clock and 4 o'clock crown layouts, and the dial feet sit in different places for each. Clip off the two legs that don't match your crown position — two stay, two go.

How do I fit it to a 3 o'clock or a 4 o'clock crown movement?

Remove the two legs that don't match your movement's crown position by clipping or gently twisting them off, then seat the dial as normal. Two legs stay, two go. See the How To Mod tab for the full fitting walkthrough.

Will this dial fit my case?

Yes, almost certainly. This is a standard 28.5mm dial — the industry-standard size for Seiko mod builds. It fits any case designed for a 28.5mm dial, whether that's the Bauhaus 33, an SKX013, or another aftermarket case. The Bauhaus 33 is the intended aesthetic partner, not a fitment requirement.

Does it work with normal or ultra thin chapter rings?

Either. Because every marker on this dial is flat-printed — no raised indices — both normal and ultra thin chapter rings clear the dial surface cleanly. Choose based on your case's clearance, not the dial.

Which movement do I need?

This is a no-date dial — we recommend the NH38 (no-date caliber) so there's no unused date function sitting behind the dial. That said, it works perfectly well on a date movement like the NH35 or NH36; you simply won't have a date window. Some modders deliberately choose a date movement here so they can later swap to a date or day-date dial without changing the movement.

Can you remove the logo from the dial?

Our own dials carry the logo on an adhesive backing rather than a permanent stamped or engraved marking, so it isn't baked into the dial. In practice, though, removing one cleanly isn't realistic — the adhesive doesn't release without scratching or marking the dial surface, and on enamel dials especially the risk is high. We sell our dials as-is and don't modify them further. You're welcome to remove the logo yourself or have a modding specialist do it for you — just go in knowing the dial face will likely pick up some cosmetic marks.
