I'm so glad I found this video! This is probably the best footage I've seen of the watch online. Every photo, especially the ones on the Nomos website look flat and boring, but this completely changes it. The blue luminescent hands, in particular, look striking.
Excellent review. My only complaint with this beautiful timepiece, and also with many other watchmakers is that they offer ther products in on (Big) size: always 42mm or more!! Now, some say that it is not the diameter but the lug-to-lug that makes a watch looks big on the wrist, but that is true in just few pieces I tried. In the majority of cases, my wrist looks ridiculous with watches larger than 40mm. It is as if, for exemple, shirt manufacturers thoughts that the best and unique fit for every man was L or XL and everyone should like that. Here, of course, it is an exaggeration just to show the incongruently of the approach. But that is precisely the case with watches in these times. Not everyone has the wrist to pull a large watch or in some cases, the envy to show off. Some thoughtful watchmakers at least, offer their pieces in two sizes, so taking into consideration a good quantity of their potential costumers.
Yes, but you see, it’s all perspective. I prefer 42-44mm. It then seems like most watches are too small for my tastes. As they say, the grass is always greener on the other side.
Great vid, enjoying your content. I would consider this watch @38 - 40mm. Current iteration is just too big I feel. Shame, it's an attractive timepiece.
I have the Ahoi Atlantic , I really love this watch and would love the metal strap to go with mine. Mine is Dark blue. I am thinking about getting the Sport because I just love the silver dial,lme and strap
Yeeeeah this is a crazy huge watch for that dial design... Also, I'm not sure how robust it really is... Nomos' movements (aside from their Alpha) aren't really known for being resilient.
Not exactly a U Boat is it at 42mm but it’s a classy piece. Love the bracelet but hate the lumed indices, why not blue to match the hands? Not keen on the date window either and it upsets the symmetry. Too pricey and the club looks better, shame it’s too small really. Don’t really think Nomos need a sports watch in the range and can’t see it been a big seller either.
Would be great if you wore the watch on your actual wrist so we can see what it looks like. The articulation makes big watches look better, but that’s not where people wear it.

I think you meant “once on the wrist” instead of “once on the watch” @ 03:14.
I love Nomos. I own one. But, and this is a monumental BUT, Nomos forces you to send your watch back to Germany to be serviced by their staff. 180 dollars return, not including the cost of the service. What a pain in the ass. And this is why I will never buy one again.
I'm sorry to be that guy, but... Pronunciation matters if someone is going see this and pick up a bad habit. Nomos is german, so "Tan-gent-uh". Sure, "Porsch-uh" is also german and we often use "Porsch", but "Porsch-ay"? A small blemish on an otherwise great review
This proportions, size and ugly bracelet makes this even uglier than the Autobahn. Still admire my 36mm Club or the classic 35 or even 38mm Tangente...but this is awful.

Teh Ahoi Atlantic Is also a beautiful piece!
Amazing review! Would love to see the black one. Also 42 is not that big guys lol. Y'all trippin
Thanks Taylor!
Yes, thank you. 42-44mm are perfect for many of us.
This makes an excellent one-watch collection with diver watch water resistant but with dress watch looks.
Great review full of honesty...beautiful watch but a bit to big, lugs need to be redesign
Yeeeeah this is a crazy huge watch for that dial design...
Also, I'm not sure how robust it really is... Nomos' movements (aside from their Alpha) aren't really known for being resilient.
Beautiful, however I would like to see one of 38 mm, no crown guard and no date.
really like this, does anyone think this could work on a smaller wrist, like a 6.25cm wrist size?
Настоящий немец ! , да , настоящий скромно и со вкусом, ничего лишнего .
8:23 what's that noise in the background?
Gorgeous watch btw
Got the Watch today. Very comfy!
do you think this could work on a smaller wrist, like 6.25 cm?
It is a big Watch, you should try it if possible. The bracelett ist very comfy and elegant.
@@GC2TEJJ thanks, will have to try!

Where is the coucho strap?
6:10 The dial says 1000 feet, which converts to 300 meters, but you said 200. Which one is correct? Just out of curiosity.
maximoplf 300M / 1000F.
Love the design but far too big......also too expensive
It really is a unique design!
Nice !!! Wish I have one of these
Incredible video
It’s perfect
40 MILIMETERs big, 37 milimeters is good.
It’s 42mm so this is definitely not for you!

The Sport1 is for Paneristi-Wrists! 😂
ÓTIMO RELÓGIO, MAS MUITO GRANDE BOM SE FOSSE 37 MILIMETERs.
Nice watch but the lugs look narrow and angular and hence ugly in my opinion.

Omega Aqua Terra had already done all that in a much better movement and better history.
Yes, but it looks completely different. Kind of a major difference.

That bracelet is butt ugly.
