Introducing The NOMOS Glashütte Tangente 'A Century Of Bauhaus' Limited Editions (Exclusive)

One of the words most often used to describe NOMOS Glashütte's watches is "Bauhaus." While that might be used as shorthand to cover things like "Minimal" and "Sleek," it's important to remember that the Bauhaus is an actual place Despite closing in 1933, the impact of the Bauhaus on 20th century design really can't be overstated Taking all of that into account, it's only fitting that NOMOS would release a collection of limited edition watches to celebrate the Bauhaus's centenary.

The Tangente "A Century Of Bauhaus" collection is a series of nine watches, all variations on a theme The Tangente is sort of the ur NOMOS, and here we see the original, hand-wound version in all three major sizes - 33mm, 35mm, and 38mm - each with three special dial treatments The base dial color is "Sketch paper", which is a matte, slightly yellowed hue, and then the circumference of each is ringed in one of the three primary colors, which were considered especially important to the Bauhaus artists.

Each of the nine versions of the watch is limited to 100 numbered pieces, with engravings on the solid steel casebacks for each. . Source
