Ludwig 38 has a new look, and yet remains classic—now with a glossy enamel-white dial. The movement within is a classic in its own right: Manual caliber Alpha keeps on running, exactly as it always has.
175 years of Glashütte tradition translated for today: Roman numerals on an enamel-white dial, railroad minute markers—the tempered blue needle-thin hands add a modern twist.
Ludwig features Roman numerals, and instead of IV there is IIII—according to watchmaking tradition, of course.
Ludwig 38 is less than seven millimeters in height; the slender stainless steel case sits beautifully on any kind of wrist.
Ludwig 38 is powered by hand-wound caliber Alpha—ardent watch owners love the traditional ritual of winding their timepiece each morning.
Made in Glashütte, Germany: Precision timekeeping, award-winning design, and exceptional craftmanship—perfect all around.
