Winding by hand not your style? This NOMOS timepiece that spares you the minor work of winding it. The classic Ludwig models is available with an exquisite automatic caliber and easily legible date. A touch larger and more modern than the hand-wound version, but still with a classic white silver-plated dial. Makes a seriously smart impression (for the wearer too).
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.
Ludwig automatic date is somewhat larger than the original version, and appears a little more robust. That means it is not only fluent in Latin, but also versed in late Roman martial arts.
Impression
As classic as it gets, with a date As much Ludwig as can be: Equipped with automatic caliber DUW 5101 with a date function, this model measures 40 millimeters in diameter—making it a classic timepiece for more robust wrists.
