Nomos Glashütte Zürich (ref. 801)

The Nomos Glashütte Zürich (ref. 801) is a 39.8mm steel dress watch with a galvanized silver dial, the three-hand version of the Zürich family Nomos introduced in 2010 with the complicated Zürich Weltzeit as its flagship. It runs the in-house automatic Epsilon caliber with 43 hours of power reserve. Against the Tangente, Club Sport, Orion, and Ahoi already in the catalog, the Zürich is Nomos's most formal, technically ambitious line. We have no verified price observations yet (n=0).

History

Nomos Glashütte was founded in 1990 in Glashütte, Germany, shortly after reunification, becoming one of the manufactures that revived the Saxon town's watchmaking tradition with its own in-house calibers.

The Zürich family arrived in 2010 with the Zürich Weltzeit as its flagship model: Nomos's first world-time complication, with the in-house calibre DUW 5201 displaying a second time zone and a 24-hour disc. The collection was conceived from the start as the catalog's most formal and technically ambitious range, above the brand's simpler dress lines.

Reference 801 is the three-hand version of that family, with no world-time complication: it runs the automatic Epsilon caliber, Nomos's first self-designed automatic movement, with 26 jewels and 43 hours of power reserve, housed in a 39.8mm steel tripartite case with a galvanized silver dial with no numerals.

This reference sets itself apart from the other four Nomos references already in Cazador's catalog — Tangente (hand-wound), Club Sport (sport), Orion (hand-wound dress), and Ahoi (water-resistant sport) — as the first piece from the Zürich family, the most technically ambitious and formal range within Nomos's catalog.
