Cosmopolitan, smart, with plenty of contemporary flair—that is Metro. As the version Metro neomatik 41 Update, this watch also loves clear forms. The unique, patented NOMOS ring date in neon orange is a sign of new times to come: The iconic design of Metro nevertheless remains unmistakably Metro. The new dark gray textile strap adds an extra touch of elegance to our latest creation made together with Mark Braun.
Prizes and awards
Metro Update awarded Good Design® Award by the Chicago jury: Metro Update impressed the jury with a design that is simultaneously clean and complex—and with user-friendly functionality. For its creator, Berlin product designer Mark Braun, Metro Update is “a master in understatement and quality consciousness turned watch.”

Impression
Metro neomatik 41 Update remains beautifully slender even with a diameter of just under 41 millimeters: The stainless steel case with its fine, domed sapphire crystal glass and the striking wire lugs follow the form of the wrist in dynamic fashion.

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.
