A cosmopolitan with a clear sense of form and function—and a view to the important things. This version of the prizewinning hand-wound watch Metro, designed by Mark Braun, does without a date and power reserve indicator. And without the classic white: Here the ruthenium-plated dial shines in cool almost black shade. There is less to fit in 38.5 millimeters, which in this case is much more.
This Metro goes without a date and power reserve indicator. And white—it shines instead in ruthenium-black (a metal from the platinum group).
Glashütte’s dark side: The dial of this Metro isn’t plain black, but rather ruthenium (a metal in the platinum group). As well as mint, silver, and red.
Metro has a simply beautiful side profile, demonstrating how elegant and slender a mechanical watch can be.
