Nomos Glashuette Tangente 2Date

Love at second glance too: This Tangente with a diameter of 37.5 millimeters has two date displays in red that complement each other harmoniously. The exclusive NOMOS ring date-in a hand-wound watch for the first time here-shows the entire month; meanwhile, the large date window at 6 o’clock focuses on the current date. At midnight or when the quickset function is activated, the two displays set the white silver-plated dial with rhodium-plated hands in motion in a way that is doubly beautiful.
Tangente with its straight, slim case, angled lugs, thread hands that are typical for NOMOS, and narrow serif font has long been a beloved watch model. As the Tangente 2date, it is now a dating pro.
The hand-wound DUW 4601 caliber with a patented date mechanism ticks within. The date ring around the movement makes the dual date display possible-the ring date around the dial’s edge and the generous date window at 6 o’clock.
This date caliber effectively showcases the NOMOS swing system, our proprietary escapement. This innovative component with a blue balance spring is surrounded by fine sunbeam ribbing. It not only enhances the three-quarter plate, which is a traditional feature of Glashutte watchmaking, but also incorporates the plate of the date ring around the movement. To make the NOMOS swing system even easier to observe, the balance cock has been elegantly skeletonized.
And that’s just the exterior of this fine movement. The picture does not show the mainspring barrel, which can store power for 52 hours. The quick-set date is also particularly convenient. You can easily jump forward in time with just a few turns of the crown. To do so, the crown must be pulled into the second of three positions.
