Nomos Glashütte Tangente 38 Schlossgrün

In a bold move that merges tradition with innovation, NOMOS Glashütte unveils 31 vibrant renditions of its timeless Tangente model at Watches and Wonders 2024 in Geneva. Aptly named the Tangente 38 date – 175 Years Watchmaking Glashütte collection, each of these limited-edition timepieces pays homage to the brand’s 175-year legacy with a unique burst of color, limited to just 175 pieces per version.

Embracing the notion that color symbolizes individuality and vitality, NOMOS takes a daring step by transforming its iconic Tangente into a kaleidoscope of expressions. Yet, despite the departure from its traditional look, the essence of the Tangente remains intact, affirming its status as a cornerstone of the Nomos collections. With whimsical German monikers like Ariel, Zirkus, Haifischgrau, and Schlossgrün, each watch in this special edition tells its own distinct story.

Breaking the mold, NOMOS makes these exclusive timepieces more accessible by offering them at a price lower than that of the standard model, thus democratizing the joy of mechanical watches. This commitment to inclusivity underscores the brand’s belief that fine watchmaking should be enjoyed by all, fostering a sense of diversity and individuality within the watchmaking world, and ensuring that everyone can partake in this celebration of Glashütte watchmaking.

At the heart of the Tangente 38 date beats the hand-wound caliber DUW 4101, made in Glashütte and fitted with NOMOS’s proprietary swing system. Notably, NOMOS’s innovative date mechanism, seamlessly integrated into the movement, ensures a strikingly large date window positioned at the dial’s periphery—an unmistakable hallmark of the brand.
