This independent brand has not only preserved the region’s watchmaking heritage but also revitalised it, presenting creations that are both refreshingly contemporary and meticulously constructed.

Each watch tells its own story, expressing the brand’s unwavering dedication to simplicity, elegance, and functionality while subtly pushing the boundaries of design. These models, each distinct in aesthetic and character, collectively underscore NOMOS’s expertise in balancing artistry with technical innovation.
Tangente 2 Date: Classic with a Twist
The Tangente 2 Date holds a unique position within the NOMOS collection. Its minimalist dial, paired with a stainless-steel casing, exudes the calm, clear design language that is quintessential to NOMOS. The watch is powered by the in-house calibre DUW 6101, an automatic movement known for its robustness and slim profile, ensuring both precision and durability.
What sets this watch apart is its practical and well-executed date function—a subtle feature that enhances functionality without detracting from the balanced design of the watch. Encased in a 41 mm stainless-steel body, the Tangente 2 Date appeals to those who appreciate understated elegance, with every glance offering a reminder of the precision and craftsmanship that went into its creation.
Tangente 2 Date Blue: Bold Yet Balanced
For those drawn to a bold yet refined aesthetic, the Tangente 2 Date Blue offers a captivating twist. Its midnight blue dial introduces a sense of depth and intrigue, contrasting sharply yet harmoniously with the watch’s stainless-steel case. The blue hue is more than a colour choice; it serves as a backdrop that accentuates the simplicity and clarity of the dial’s layout.
Inside, the watch houses the same DUW 6101 automatic calibre as its sibling, delivering dependable performance. The 41 mm case size, combined with the deep blue tone, lends the Tangente 2 Date Blue a sense of versatility, making it equally suitable for formal settings and casual elegance. This model is an ideal choice for those who seek a watch that can subtly stand out, allowing the quality of German engineering to take centre stage.
Tangente Neomatik Dore: A Warm Embrace of Craft
The Tangente Neomatik Dore captures attention with its warm, gold-plated accents. This model introduces an unexpected warmth to the Tangente line of watches with its gold-tone dial standing in gentle contrast to the classic stainless-steel case. As for its case design, the hour markers are split between Arabic numerals and black indices.
The watch is driven by the DUW 3001 automatic movement, an ultra-thin calibre designed entirely in-house. This high-performance movement is celebrated for its accuracy and efficiency, all within a compact 35 mm case. Ideal for those with a penchant for unique yet refined design, the Tangente Neomatik Dore represents NOMOS’s ability to balance innovation with heritage. It is a watch that feels both familiar and refreshingly novel, perfect for those who appreciate subtle variations on a classic theme.
Orion Neomatik Dore: Elegance in Every Detail
The Orion Neomatik Dore is the epitome of NOMOS’s philosophy of refined simplicity. With its slender profile and meticulously crafted dial, the Orion exudes quiet confidence. The golden nuances of its dial bring warmth to the otherwise minimalist design, embodying NOMOS’s dedication to aesthetic harmony.
