* The Tetra is the only model in the Nomos collection that does not have a round case, yet it is still instantly recognisable as a Nomos watch. The classic typography for the numerals and the angular design of the shoulder pieces retain all of the Nomos design principles. With an extremely thin case for a mechanical watch and the perfectly flat sapphire glass used, this sits extremely comfortably on the wrist. Housing the excellent alpha manually wound movement, this is a watch to wear and treasure for years.
* Tetra 27 Duo does away with the small seconds indicator and focuses purely on hours and minutes. The smaller case diameter of 27.5mm x 27.5mm and height of just 6.1mm makes this watch perfect watch for slender wrists and with a beautiful silver glavanised dial with gold hands, Tetra 27 Duo makes for a wonderful daily companion.

Nomos was founded in the small town of Glashütte in eastern Germany just after the fall of the Berlin wall. Even though the market was demanding Quartz, Nomos took a chance and focused on producing purely mechanical watches.
Today, Nomos Glashütte is one of only a handful of watch companies to call themselves a manufactory, meaning it is a company which develops and constructs its own movements rather than buying in movements from other companies.
Nomos live by the ethos ‘Deutscher Werkbund’, which means good design affordable for the many.
