Metro date power reserve, designed by Mark Braun, is young and sophisticated, yet Glashütte through and through. The power reserve indicator doesn’t only remind wearers when to rewind, it is also one of the design features. Others include hands as fine as quill tips and colorful hour indexes. And the hand-wound NOMOS caliber DUW 4401 is within, setting the pace, equipped with our proprietary escapement.
A statement piece from Glashütte—with a generously proportioned date and a power reserve indicator in mint and red.
Visible through the sapphire crystal glass back: the tempered blue balance spring. Yes, the in-house built NOMOS swing system is at work here.
Metro has a simply beautiful side profile, demonstrating how elegant and slender a mechanical watch can be.
The softly rounded lugs are set at an angle and ensure that the watch sits perfectly on the wrist.
The hour and minute hands taper elegantly, the minutes are represented by fine dots, and the date window is positioned harmoniously at six o'clock.
Made in Glashütte, Germany: Precision timekeeping, award-winning design, and exceptional craftmanship—perfect all around.
Prizes and awards
Good Design, Red Dot, German Design Award: Metro is wrapping one design prize jury after the other around its wrist.

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.
