NOMOS Glashütte Tangente date power reserve

Owners praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente date power reserve's classic 37.5mm sizing, white dial, blued hands, and red power reserve indicator. Reviewers highlight the thin, well-proportioned case and the admirable, thin DUW 4601 hand-wound movement with a 52-hour power reserve. Some find the dual date display unnecessary, and the blue dial's ring date can be difficult to read. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente date power reserve for its elegant design and well-executed movement.
