Nomos Glashütte Autobahn Neomatik 41 Date Sports Gray Ref. 1303

The NOMOS Autobahn neomatik 41 date sports gray 1303 was introduced in 2018 as one of the three original Autobahn neomatik 41 date references launched with the DUW 6101 movement. This version is the sportier execution of the series, pairing the 41mm stainless steel case with a galvanized, rhodium-plated dial, blue dial elements, and neon orange hands. The model retains the defining Autobahn architecture, including the curved dial design, the three-day date aperture at 6 o’clock, and the automatic DUW 6101 visible through the sapphire crystal case back. The stainless steel case measures 41.0mm in diameter, 10.5mm in height, and 49.6mm from lug to lug. It is fitted with a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating and a domed sapphire crystal display back. Water resistance is rated at 10 atm, making the watch suitable for swimming. The case has a relatively narrow bezel and a pronounced crown, while the curved dial construction gives the watch a more dimensional profile than most other NOMOS designs. The dial is galvanized and rhodium-plated, giving the sports gray version a cooler metallic base than the white silver-plated reference. Its layout is built around a broad curved sector inspired by instrument displays, with blue detailing against the gray background and neon orange hands adding the strongest color contrast in the original Autobahn series. The elongated date display at 6 o’clock shows three dates at once, with the current date centered between the previous and following day. Inside is the NOMOS DUW 6101, the brand’s first neomatik movement with a date mechanism. The automatic movement measures 3.6mm in height, has a diameter of 35.2mm, and offers a power reserve of up to 42 hours. The date ring is positioned around the movement, allowing the display to sit toward the outer edge of the dial. The watch is fitted to a blue-black woven waterproof textile strap with a 20mm lug width and a square stainless steel NOMOS winged clasp.
