South Sudan, Syria, Nepal: In many places worldwide, assistance is urgently needed. Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is committed to bringing emergency medical aid to those who need it — be it in high-profile crisis zones or in places rarely featured by the media.
NOMOS Glashütte is supporting the Nobel Peace Prize-winning organization with eight special watch models for the U.S.A., U.K., and Germany, limited to 1,000 pieces each. Every single one raises 100 U.S. dollars, British pounds, or euros, respectively, with the aim of donating a total of over $1 million to Doctors Without Borders.
NOMOS crafts these fine mechanical timepieces in the world-famous German watchmaking town of Glashütte. German engineering skill, outstanding product design (in the traditions of Bauhaus and the Deutscher Werkbund), and the town’s rich heritage of watchmaking: thanks to these aspects, timepieces from NOMOS Glashütte are of the highest quality.
What also makes these elegant hand-wound watches unique is the red “12” on their silver-plated dials, which is a subtle allusion to the medical aid organization, the small “Doctors Without Borders” inscription below the 6 o’clock position, and the special engraving on their backs. Each of these timepieces is individually numbered, and the fine in-house caliber is displayed through the sapphire crystal caseback.
With these limited-edition NOMOS timepieces for Doctors Without Borders, you can spread the holiday cheer — by bringing better times to both a loved one and to many others around the world. Retailers in the U.S. helping to help include Tourneau, Govberg, and many others, as well as the NOMOS online store.
