Obscura

Designed with Beers and Cameras for analog photographers and built to thrive both in the field and on the wrist, the Obscura is a fusion of horology and photographic utility. Whether you're capturing fleeting moments on film or kicking back at a beachside café, the Obscura is built to be your everyday companion.

This collaboration marks the first timepiece to integrate an exposure gauge complication based on the Sunny 16 Rule, a clever and time-tested method for determining proper exposure without the need for a light meter. Developed from a patented innovation by Beers And Cameras founder Juan Martinez, the Obscura distills this essential photographic principle into an intuitive, wrist-worn tool.

The concept behind the Obscura was first conceived over five years ago and officially patented in June 2024 (Patent No. 12,007,722). Nodus is proud to be the first brand to bring this complication to market, marking an exciting moment in the intersection of horology and photography.
