NOMOS And Revolution Unveil The Limited Edition Zurich World Time “Sambal”
NOMOS Glashütte has teamed up with Revolution to unveil the Zurich World Time “Sambal,” a striking limited edition that introduces vibrant pink tones to the brand’s acclaimed multi-time-zone watch. This release follows NOMOS’s celebrated debut at Watches and Wonders, where it showcased 31 exclusive Tangente 38 variants to honour 175 years of Glashütte watchmaking. Among those was the “Chili,” a fan favourite in three pink shades that inspired Wei Koh, the founder of Revolution, to envision the “Sambal” edition. Its name pays homage to Southeast Asian street food, particularly the bold and flavorful sambal dishes.
The Zurich World Time “Sambal” stands out with its polished stainless steel case measuring 40mm in diameter, 10.90mm thick, and 49mm long. Its sophisticated design includes a sapphire crystal, a smooth bezel, and a fluted crown, complemented by a pusher at 2 o’clock and a recessed one at 8 o’clock. The open case back, secured with screws, provides a view of the movement while ensuring a water resistance of 30 meters.
The dial design captures attention with its triadic pink palette. It features two central hands for hours and minutes, a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock in hot pink, and a rotating disc displaying 24 time zones in light pink. Highlighting the watch’s thematic roots, Singapore replaces Hong Kong on the city disc as a nod to Sambal’s cultural epicentre. An outer minute track in dark pink ties the design together, complementing the partially exposed 24-hour disc located between 2 and 4 o’clock.
Functionality is as refined as its aesthetics. The 2 o’clock pusher rotates the 24-city disc, aligning the desired city at noon beneath the inverted triangle. Users can adjust the 24-hour disc by pulling the crown and setting the time corresponding to the selected time zone. Finally, the hour hand can be set via the recessed pusher at 8 o’clock. This seamless system makes switching between time zones intuitive and efficient.
Powering the Zurich World Time “Sambal” is the in-house Caliber DUW 5201, a 26-jewel automatic movement operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a power reserve of up to 42 hours. Paired with a grey fabric strap and a steel pin buckle, this model balances style and practicality.
Limited to just 50 pieces, the NOMOS Zurich World Time “Sambal” is priced at € 5,770. This exclusive watch embodies the perfect fusion of NOMOS’s precision engineering and bold, culturally inspired design, making it a collector’s must-have.
