Description

Metro, designed by Mark Braun, is a true success story; no other NOMOS model has won so many awards or become a bestseller in such a short space of time. The dark-colored dial of this larger version with a date is the perfect complement to both the white and mint green indexes and the delicate hands. Also at work here: an exquisite hand-wound caliber featuring the NOMOS swing system.
