Just in time for the colorful and festive seasons, Nomos Glashütte introduces a new quartet of its square classic, the Tetra, dressed in mineral shades that underline the model’s modern clarity and timeless elegance. The colors —Terra, Salvia, Ochra, and Basalt — are subtle yet expressive and breathe new life into the sought-after, Bauhaus-inspired minimalist design. A fixture of the Nomos collection since the brand’s founding in 1992, the Tetra stands out with its clean stainless-steel case featuring double-stepped lugs that makes for a perfect frame for refined color compositions.

Each of the four new versions offers a subtle contrast and playful accents in the small seconds sub dial. Tetra Origins Terra marries warm terracotta with lavender and turquoise, while Tetra Origins Basalt combines fuchsia and yellow details with an anthracite backdrop, creating the most understated look of the quartet.

Measuring 29.5mm per side and only 6.5mm thick, the Tetra Origins wears elegantly and lightly on the wrist. The case is water-resistant to 5 atm and can be fitted with an optional sapphire crystal case back revealing the manual-winding DUW 4001 caliber. Produced in-house, the finely finished movement with the brand's own Nomos Swing System offers a power reserve of 53 hours.
