- Case and Dial Design
- The Nomos Ludwig 38 is housed in a stainless steel case measuring 38 millimeters in diameter. The case features thin, straight lugs that are drilled to facilitate strap changes. A sapphire crystal protects the dial, and the watch is operated via a signed crown situated on the right side of the case middle. The dial is finished in a glossy white surface, providing contrast for the black Roman numeral hour markers and the railway-track minute chapter ring. The time is indicated by a set of heat-blued steel hands. A dedicated subsidiary seconds dial is positioned at the 6 o'clock mark.
