About the Nomos Glashutte Ahoi Collection
The Nomos Glashütte Ahoi Collection is a series of watches that combine Nomos' signature minimalist design with a robust, sporty aesthetic. Introduced in 2013, the Ahoi line stands out as one of Nomos Glashütte’s more versatile offerings, especially for those seeking a reliable timepiece suited for both everyday wear and active lifestyles.
Design And Aesthetics
At the heart of the Ahoi collection is its minimalist dial, characterised by clean lines, slim hands, and subtle yet effective accents. The watch’s dial, often in striking colours like Atlantic Blue or Siren Red, features simple indices and a small seconds sub-dial at the six o’clock position. This simplicity is a testament to Nomos’ ability to fuse elegance with functionality, a feature often attributed to the Bauhaus movement that informs much of the brand’s design philosophy. In contrast to some of Nomos’ slimmer, dressier models, the Ahoi watches feature a larger and thicker case, enhancing both durability and wrist presence. The case size, available in 36mm and 38mm variants, allows wearability across different wrist sizes. The incorporation of a textile strap reinforces the collection’s nautical and sporty undertones.
Movements And Iterations
One of the standout features of the Ahoi line is its utilisation of Nomos’ highly regarded in-house movements, particularly those from the Neomatik series. The automatic movements are notable for their slim profile, allowing the watches to maintain an elegant silhouette despite the addition of rugged features. The DUW 6101 calibre, for example, powers models like the Ahoi Neomatik 38 Date, providing not only accurate timekeeping but also incorporating Nomos’ patented Swing System, ensuring precision and innovation within a compact form factor. By placing the date ring around the outer edge of the movement, Nomos allows for a large, easily readable date display without adding heft to the watch.
The Nomos Glashütte Ahoi collection offers a diverse range of models catering to different tastes while preserving its signature minimalist design. The Ahoi Date introduces a practical date complication without compromising the watch's clean aesthetic. Meanwhile, the Ahoi Neomatik offers a slimmer, more refined profile thanks to the ultra-thin Neomatik movement, powered by the precise DUW 3001 calibre.
ABOUT THE MOVEMENT
Known for its outstanding winding rate, the DUW 5001 is an automatic mechanical movement made in-house by Nomos and based on Nomos Epsilon since 2005. Featuring a bidirectional winding rotor, this calibre profoundly displays rhodium-plated surfaces, tempered blue screws, and Glashütte ribbings. Apart from aesthetics, the DUW 5001 also features the unique Glashütte stopwork while providing a power reserve of approximately 43 hours. Additionally, it beats at a rate of approximately 21,600vph.
