The red 12 references the emergency aid organization, which has fought for 50 years against the consequences of epidemics, natural disasters, and forced migration. Red is the color of Doctors Without Borders—and of emergency aid. With this special edition model, limited to 2,021 pieces, NOMOS Glashütte is paying tribute to the organization and is helping them to help.
To mark the emergency aid organization’s 50th year, Tangente 38 has received a dark gray textile strap and features an inscription at six o’clock: “50 ans de Médecins Sans Frontières”.
Helping bring about better times: Special edition Tangente 38 is limited to 2,021 pieces for the anniversary of Doctors Without Borders—100 euros from the sale of each watch goes directly to providing emergency aid.
Made in Glashütte, Germany: Precision timekeeping, award-winning design, and exceptional craftmanship—perfect all around.
Impression
More Tangente—just under three millimeters, to be precise, in comparison to the classic 35-millimeter version. The angular case appears even more slender.
Fabian has a wrist circumference of 18.5 cm (7.3") and a strap length of M.
