Some of the most important points on a city dweller’s to-do list can be found on this wine-red dial. The smallest of them are in an assertive pink—as is the second hand of Metro 33 muted red. The multi-award-winning mechanical watch designed by Mark Braun, shown here with manual winding, in stainless steel and with a smart diameter of just 33 millimeters. Because city life can be simply beautiful!
A spacious dial in warm red with a milled sub-seconds dial, as well as hour and minute hands that are stepped like the Empire State Building.
Dot indexes for vibrant hours and numerals at five-minute intervals: urban timekeeping in a Metro design.
Perfect touch: The beautiful knurling on the crown of Metro’s stainless steel case is reminiscent of that on watchmaking tools.
The minute markers are placed along the perimeter of the dial with numerals at five-minute intervals and pink lacquer dots marking the minutes in between. The seconds hand features the same cheerful color.
The softly rounded wire lugs on the case of Metro look as familiar as your favorite actors from a classic American movie. With quick-change spring bars.
The sapphire crystal covering the watch is domed in two different radii, while the Alpha caliber from NOMOS Glashütte—finely adjusted in six positions—ticks inside the super slim case.

Safety instructions
NOMOS uses 316 L stainless steel for all cases and buckles. This type of stainless steel is not fully free of nickel, but it does not pass nickel on to the skin; the amount of nickel in the alloy is about 12 percent. Thus, the amount of nickel passed to the skin is less than 0.2 micrograms per square centimeter per week and far below the medicinally acceptable amount. Other stainless steel alloys might have a lower percentual amount of nickel in the alloy, but they pass more of it on to the skin.
