Very cool! Would have liked it more if the red dots filled in each date as it passed, so that at like 31st, all the red dots were present

I really like that, thanks for sharing. Such a simple way to display the date and maintain balance in the dial. May have to take a closer look at this one!

Still on the fence with the Orion



And the Ludwig



But if I can pull of a 41mm Bauhaus the Tengente is a winner for me.

They’re not, Bas – the red indicators surround the number between them, which is the date.
It’s a different take on the typical way of indicating it, using a long hand with a crescent/half circle on the end – like Perrelet, Patek, and others, have implemented.

Bas, I know you will feel much better knowing that I was also confused at the beginning. I think it was a "Sky Dweller" bias for me.

Another cool feature is that the quick set works in both directions.

I was confused about that too. It’s very cool and about as unobtrusive as a date function can be.
Good job Nomos...on the Autobahn as well.

Pretty neat but no JLC calendar. The Bauhaus design is getting old... At least for me. (Been a NOMOS owner since 2012.)
