NOMOS Glashütte Metro 33 in Steel

In the run-up to the tenth anniversary of the famous NOMOS Metro, designer Mark Braun has recast his original design in all-new feminine versions: three times Metro 33. 

Metro 33 in all silver, sage, and muted red are the newest additions to the watch family designed by Mark Braun; watches from NOMOS Glashütte that truly capture the zeitgeist. The colors of all three represent images of the big city: gleaming facades (all silver), red brick buildings such as those found in Brooklyn (muted red), and the luscious green of the parks or the Statue of Liberty (sage). Thus—in stainless steel, with a milled sub-seconds dial, and in new colors—Metro is completely new.

Exquisite details: Be it the gleaming dial of the all silver version or the intricate double curved sapphire crystal glass of all three, the wire lugs with their quick-change spring bars or the signature Metro crown with its diamond knurling, everything testifies to impeccable Glashütte craftmanship and the highest design standards. The Berlin designer adds playful little details, such as the second hands and minute markers in pink and yellow.

Mark Braun is delighted: “These three smaller models are successfully expressing what my original Metro was able to express for me in 2014. For me, they are what I understand by contemporary elegance: smart, playful, and full of energy.”

Simone Elbe, Head of Sales (DACH) at NOMOS Glashütte, already has a new favorite watch: “The reflective silver, for sure. It is a piece of the city and art that you can wear!”

The NOMOS Alpha proprietary caliber is at work within all three new versions of Metro 33. This is the most frequently produced and highly acclaimed hand-wound caliber from Glashütte. The three exciting new ladies’ watches—which also suit men with slender wrists, of course—come with a choice of a steel or sapphire crystal back. A vegan velour leather strap in light gray rounds off the watch design.

Everything about the three new Metro models testifies to impeccable Glashütte craftmanship and the highest design standards: the intricate double curved sapphire crystal glass, the wire lugs with their quick-change spring bars, and the signature Metro crown with its diamond knurling. Shown here: Metro 33 all silver by NOMOS Glashütte.

Metro 33 muted red by NOMOS Glashütte with its very distinctive color combinations: The second hand and minute markers are pink, on a muted red dial, all held in place by a vegan velour leather strap in light gray.

A beautiful texture on the crown: Mark Braun borrowed the diamond knurling found on watchmaking tools. This ensures that Metro 33 by NOMOS Glashütte is easy to wind. And it is also wonderfully decorative. 

Metro 33 sage is one of three new Metro models in the watch family designed by Mark Braun; watches from NOMOS Glashütte that truly capture the zeitgeist. It is true that our bestselling timepiece has been available in a delicate diameter of 33 millimeters for some time, but in this size, in stainless steel, and in new dial colors, Metro is revealing a completely new side.

Powered by exceptional mechanics: The Alpha caliber from NOMOS Glashütte. The hand-wound movement, made in Glashütte, guarantees precision and punctuality—even in the hectic life of the big city.

The new models were designed to be metropolitan—as elegant as they are unconventional. All three were intended to express their value aesthetically as well. And it worked: Metro 33 all silver, muted red, and sage are three wonderful new watches by NOMOS Glashütte.
