Nomos Glashutte Creates the Perfect Perfect Square

Nomos Glashutte is wise beyond their years.  Minimalist dial design, simple case shapes, and in-house movements keep this German brand plugging right along. Its not easy to continuously debut new designs and strike a cord every time. Nomos has done it once again with the Tetra Neomatik.  Clearly they recognize what defines them stylistically, which can be hard for an up and coming brand.

A perfect square of stainless steel, 33mm x 33mm, the Tetra Neomatik is sandwiched by two sapphire crystals.  Below the first lies the dial with two options.  One being galvanized white silver plated with blue, black and red accents.  The other is a lacquered deep blue with green, rhodium, and orange accents.  Both dials offer a simple and unique appearance with just a slight flair of color.  Beneath the dial lies a Nomos Glashutte in-house automatic movement with a 42 hour power reserve.  A leather strap attached to the step style lugs both frame and complete this timepiece.

Almost as if this piece fell out of the 1950s automobile dashboard, the Neomatik is built for function and legibility with style.  No detail is spared from the different number fonts, to the color shades used to contrast with each offered dial.  Framed by a square case that acts as a pedestal to display this artful dial, Nomos has pulled off another minimalist masterpiece.  Diversify your collection with this piece for just $3,860.

Working with the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 team, Adidas launched the Silver Arrow pack, a collection of fanwear inspired by the Mercedes-Benz W196 race car. Current Mercedes F1 drivers George Russell and Kimi Antonelli posed with items from the Silver Arrow collection along with professional models.
Why celebrate the W196?

The W196 wasn't the first Silver Arrow. The first Mercedes to be called a Silver Arrow was the Mercedes W25, which debuted in 1934. However, driver Juan Fangio won the 1954 and 1955 F1 World Championships with the W196, which was among the several models referred to by the group name. The Adidas Silver Arrow collection celebrates the 70th anniversary of the W196's first F1 Championship season.

When it comes to a trail sneaker, you’ll want to ensure it is both functional and stylish. While a chic sneaker comes in handy for everyday use, a trail-ready sneaker should be able to keep you comfortable on any adventure. While Salomon knows how to fuse both successfully, their latest collaboration with South Korean designer J EONGL I adds another level of style and practicality to it. Inspired by the passage of time, this new collaboration comes in two colorways that perfectly capture the inspiration of eroded cliffs and fossils.
