An icon is an icon is an icon. What is there left to say? NOMOS Glashütte has long been known for its color expertise. But now, at Watches and Wonders in Geneva, the watchmaking company is presenting its bestseller Tangente, which has remained unchanged for more than three decades, in color. Or rather—in colors. The special edition Tangente 38 date – 175 Years Watchmaking Glashütte is a collection of 31 different colorful versions of the classic watch, each limited to 175 pieces and regulated according to chronometer values. The icon in color. Color reflects individuality and diversity; it is invigorating and vibrant. Changing an icon so drastically, even refining it, is not without risk. But Tangente 38 date remains appealing in its standard version and is a celebration of fine watchmaking in these 31 different colorways. This special edition brings personality and joy to the world of Haute Horlogerie, as well as a wide range of emotions and moods. Each watch bears its own special name and has its own story— Ariel, Zirkus, Haifischgrau, and Schlossgrün are just a few of their playful German names. From the range of 31 watches, there is a perfect match for every personality. Color as an investment. The joy of mechanical watches should be accessible to as many people as possible. That is why the price of these colorful limited-edition watches is lower than that of the standard model. Bringing individuality to the wrist and diversity to the world of fine watchmaking are important to NOMOS Glashütte. Which is why the watchmaking company is investing in both. The date movement DUW 4101. The hand-wound caliber DUW 4101—made by NOMOS in Glashütte, Germany, regulated according to chronometer values, and equipped with the NOMOS swing system—ticks inside Tangente 38 date. NOMOS received its first patent for the date mechanism of DUW 4101. The mechanism is integrated into the movement and the date ring is placed around the movement, so the date window on the dial is particularly large and located at the very edge. This is a hallmark of NOMOS watches with a date function, as is the date window matching the color of the main dial. The rich tradition of over 175 years of watchmaking in Glashütte is now being celebrated exactly 31 times in color, with a watch for every day of the month. Would you like to be one of the first to meet Super Sardine, Ziegelblau, or Pompadour in person? These brand-new watches will be presented at Watches and Wonders in Geneva from April 9 to 15.
