Smart and subtle: Ludwig is the secret Wunderkind of the NOMOS collection. But despite its obvious academic credentials and command of Latin, this watch remains appealing and understated—as well as so slender that it will steal the heart of those with even the finest aesthetic sensibilities. Visible within though the sapphire crystal glass back: the hand-wound Alpha caliber, crafted in Glashütte.
Ludwig features Roman numerals, but with IIII instead of IV. This follows watchmaking traditions—and the preferences of the NOMOS design team.
The soft side of Ludwig: the lugs fit perfectly snug to the wrist.
Reserved, refined, and Roman on the outside; on the inside the fine Alpha caliber is at work—and ensures an elegant and very slender profile.
Made in Glashütte, Germany: Precision timekeeping, award-winning design, and exceptional craftmanship—perfect all around.
Impression
Ludwig at its original and best—with the classic NOMOS diameter of 35 millimeters. It has been flattering men’s and women’s wrists alike.
