ACE and NOMOS Styling: Limited Edition Orion 100 Years De Stijl
Nomos Glashütte’s design agency, Berlinerblau, is inspired by design movements like Deutscher Werkbund and the Bauhaus school, making the company the perfect fit to collaborate on the De Stijl limited edition watch.
“I have been a fan of the De Stijl movement for as long as I can remember,” Alon Ben Joseph, CEO of Ace Jewelers says. “As a child, my favorite painting was Broadway Boogie Woogie by Piet Mondriaan. Collaborating with Nomos on the De Stijl 100th Anniversary limited edition was a natural fit for both the art movement and the brand. Ultimately, we wanted to create a timepiece that is a tribute to De Stijl, and that will still be in style another 100 years from now.”
The limited edition watch celebrating De Stijl is now available for pre-order at Ace Jewelers boutiques and online via their e-Boutique: www.AceJewelers.com.
