Ludwig 38 date

Reference 231

Description

A little larger than the regular model, but just as slender—and incredibly smart: Thanks to its more generous proportions, Ludwig is unmistakable on wider wrists, despite its understated charm. This also allows more space for the extra-large NOMOS date. The sapphire crystal glass presents NOMOS’ in-house built caliber, combining hand-wound tradition with high-tech.

Details

Ludwig features Roman numerals, but with IIII instead of IV. This follows watchmaking traditions—and the preferences of the NOMOS design team.
The start of spring, Clara’s birthday, the tax return deadline: thanks to the extra-large date, you won’t forget them.
The inner values are just as attractive: the NOMOS caliber DUW 4101.

Impression

More Ludwig: 37.5 millimeters, to be exact. A practical addition: the date. The case tapers downwards and is as round as a pebble—which makes the watch wear even larger and flatter on the wrist.
