The new Nomos Glashütte Tangente 2date is a masterclass in blending timeless design with modern horological innovation. The Tangente has long been celebrated for its minimalist, Bauhaus-inspired aesthetics. This latest iteration continues that tradition, adding a unique twist—two date displays on a single dial. This feature, coupled with Nomos’ new hand-wound DUW 4601 in-house movement, offers visually striking and functionally superior. The watch features a 37.5mm polished stainless steel case and a slim profile of just 6.75mm, making it sleek and comfortable on the wrist, while the elongated lugs add a contemporary touch.
On the dial, you’ll find a fascinating double date complication. At 6 o’clock, a traditional window displays the current date, but the peripheral date display makes this model stand out. The dial’s outer ring features cutouts that frame the upcoming days, providing a glimpse of today’s date and the days ahead. Both versions are in two colorways—silver-plated or sunray blue—and feature hands with rhodium plating and luminous accents for readability in low light.
Under the hood, the DUW 4601 movement powers this innovative timepiece. It’s a modern Nomos’ Alpha caliber evolution, featuring an ultra-thin construction for both the dual-date display and a minimal case thickness. Whether worn on formal occasions or as an everyday piece, the Tangente 2date combines refined design with cutting-edge watchmaking. At $3,020, it’s a worthy addition to any collection, showcasing the perfect balance of tradition and technology.
