NOMOS METRO 38 DATE Ref. 1102: Urban elegance meets hand-wound precision in a timeless design with a galvanized dial and blue indexes.
Embodying cosmopolitan flair with a larger profile, the NOMOS METRO 38 DATE Ref. 1102, a creation by Mark Braun, stands as a refined testament to urban sophistication. This hand-wound timepiece, expanding on the award-winning regular version, showcases a galvanized, white silver-plated dial that is further accentuated by striking blue indexes at three, nine, and twelve o'clock—revealing a charming and timeless aesthetic.
Encased in stainless steel with a sapphire crystal glass back, the Metro 38 Date boasts a domed sapphire crystal glass that adds a touch of elegance while ensuring durability. This manual-winding watch, with dimensions of 38.5 mm in diameter, 7.8 mm in height, and a lug-to-lug distance of 45.3 mm, offers a splash-proof water resistance of 3 atm.
The watch is paired with a Horween Genuine Shell Cordovan black strap, featuring quick-change spring bars for effortless customization.
