Nomos Glashütte Tangente Midnight Blue Ref. 132

The NOMOS Tangente midnight blue 132 is a 35mm hand-wound Tangente distinguished by a midnight blue dial with gold-coloured hands and typography. Within the broader Tangente line, it retains the model’s established case proportions and manually wound construction, while introducing a darker dial treatment in place of the standard white silver-plated execution. Its stainless steel case measures 35.0mm in diameter, 6.2mm in height, and 45.0mm lug to lug. The watch is fitted with a sapphire crystal and a stainless steel case back. Water resistance is rated to 5 atm. The angular lugs and slim profile remain consistent with the core Tangente design. The dial is midnight blue and follows the familiar Tangente layout, with Arabic numerals, minute markers, and a recessed small-seconds register. In this version, the hands and dial typography are executed in gold colour, creating a warmer contrast against the darker dial surface. The watch is fitted on a beige vegan velour remborde strap with an 18mm lug width. Inside is the NOMOS DUW 4001, a hand-wound in-house movement measuring 23.3mm in diameter and 2.6mm in height, with 17 jewels and a power reserve of up to 53 hours. Earlier versions of this reference used Alpha; it is now fitted with DUW 4001, the current designation for NOMOS’ long-established hand-wound movement architecture. That movement family began with versions closely related to the Peseux 7001 and was progressively reworked by NOMOS into its present in-house form, with DUW 4001 representing the latest iteration of the brand’s core manually wound calibre.
