OUR BRAND

 

Founder & Designer 

JUNG is a Japanese independent watch brand founded in the heart of Tokyo by Fred Dupuis-Jung, a French car designer with over 20 years of experience in Japan in Honda, Subaru and other major car companies... His vision: to unite refined French elegance with the precision of Japanese craftsmanship.

 

Brand Philosophy

Driven by a deep passion for quality and a commitment to excellence, JUNG creates timepieces Made in Japan that embody minimalist yet sophisticated and original design. Inspired by the harmony of Zen philosophy and the clean lines of modern automotive design, each JUNG watch is straightforward, functional, and timeless—“Less is More.”

The Meaning Behind “JUNG”

The name JUNG is more than a surname — it’s a tribute, a legacy, and a forward-looking statement.

It honors the memory of Fred Dupuis-Jung’s mother, whose family name carries deep personal meaning. The story begins with a hope: that her ancestors once migrated from Germany to France, symbolizing the bridging of cultures. Today, Fred continues that journey — having moved from France to Japan — bringing together French elegance and Japanese precision in his creations.

The name JUNG, pronounced like “young”, reflects more than just youth. It represents a spirit of renewal, of bold beginnings, and the resilience it takes to build something new from the ground up. Looking ahead, the brand aspires to go beyond borders — just as its founder did — with the hope that each watch will connect people across cultures, creating harmony, peace, and shared meaning.

JUNG is not just a name. It’s a journey — rooted in heritage, guided by design, and driven by a passion to create lasting connections.

 

JUNG Logo Concept

The JUNG logo is inspired by the Japanese kanji for the number three (). Its form—two long horizontal bars with a shorter one in the center—carries deep symbolic meaning aligned with the brand’s philosophy. 

  • The top and bottom lines represent two essential elements: French elegance and Japanese precision, united through design and craftsmanship.
  • The short middle line signifies what is born from this union: a new creation, customer-centered design, and the ongoing story of growth and passion.
  • The design reflects how the outer form of a watch (case) protects and frames the inner function (movement)—a balance of design and engineering.

In essence, the logo represents the harmony of opposites coming together to create something original and forward-looking. It captures JUNG's mission:
“Crafting the future by uniting heritage and progress.”

 

Crafted for Those Who Value Excellence

Every JUNG timepiece is a testament to precision and purpose.
Crafted in Japan with meticulous care, each watch features high-performance components chosen to meet the highest standards: a surgical-grade 316L stainless steel case for strength and refinement, a sapphire crystal for uncompromising clarity and scratch resistance, and a premium high-grade silicone strap engineered for comfort, durability, and modern versatility.

But a JUNG watch is more than the sum of its parts.
It represents a relentless pursuit of quality, detail, and perfect balance. Every curve, every texture, every reflection speaks to a deeper commitment—to authentic craftsmanship, to timeless design, and to the elegance of simplicity.

This is not just a watch. It’s an experience of excellence, worn with purpose.

At JUNG, we believe a watch should do more than tell time—it should tell a story, evoke passion, and express who you are. Where innovation meets tradition, time becomes a work of art.
