The Basics
A little larger, but still flat—incredibly stylish: Ludwig with the new, extra clear and beautiful NOMOS long-distance date. Otherwise outfitted like the classic Ludwig, this watch is one of our favorites as the new proportions of this sends shivers down the spines of our NOMOS designers. Its inner values are equally delightful: the NOMOS Beta movement, built in-house in Glashütte. Reference 231 has a stainless steel case of 37.5mm. It is powered by caliber Beta. Update 19/01/2017; caliber DUW 4101.
