Finally caved last week and bought their Minimatik as my first luxury watch. Probably their most underrated line in the catalog and was really love at first sight back in 2016 when I first got into watches.
In a few year, I’ll probably get the new Rolex Explorer 36mm and that’ll be my everyday 2 watch collection.
This dial is absolutely gorgeous and has shifted my tastes in nomos watches. Thank you for the great reviews! Love the intro music!
Love nomos. Ahoi neomatic for me, same as Teddys, got one after watching his old videos. I really love it thanks Teddy!!
Loving that dial colour!
I love these
NOMOS does everything right. EVERYTHING! My favourite is the CLUB CAMPUS NEOMATIK 39 MIDNIGHT BLUE.
Beautiful, elegant understated watches.
Everyone should see a Nomos watch in person and try it on. I just got the “doctors without borders” limited edition at 37.5 mm. Great watch. 6.5 inch wrist. The watch is only 6.7 mm thick and with hand winding. Very accurate if you wind completely once a day. At 0 seconds deviation.
Very wonderful simple clean aesthetically pleasing watches! The in house movement and price is reasonable. A wonderful college graduation gift💛🎉
Very nice review. Incidentally, you can get engraving even if you get an exhibition case back, there is just a bit less space on the border around the crystal.
Really enjoying Nomos now!!!
My normal favourite size is around 36-38mm but I have to say with all the Nomos watches I have tried on even 38-39mm seems far too big. I much prefer the smaller models as they still feel a good size due to the lack of bezel but also feel simpler and more elegant.
They still have many models below 36mm.
The watches are so clean and neat.
Great video as always, Teddy Turtleneck.
Thanks for sharing!
I have a Ludwig reference 282 in 36mm, with the DUW 3001. Not only is it very slim but with such a narrow bezel the dial looks a lot larger than you may expect looking at the dimensions. If I was looking for the Tangente I'd go for the smaller diameter option as even on my 7" wrist as that dial occupies a lot of real estate. The only odd thing about my watch is that it does not like a winder box (I've tried a few) and stops but on the wrist it's perfect for days on end. As a time only model I'm more than OK with that. I would suggest that anyone who has concern about the lug to lug is to try one if you can, on the supplied leather strap you might be surprised how well it wears. Power reserve is not an issue for me.
Teddy what watch are you wearing in thie video... once again a clean crisp concise video... awesome
I understand Teddy probably chose platinum dial as more neutral option to present but their blue gold sunburst dial model from the same release with the same 35 and 39 mm sizes is absolutely phenomenal to me - just the same minimalism and in-house and nice mid-20th century hommage in size but with awesome bright color of the dial.
I ordered 35 mm with chrystal back, but it seems like Nomos decided to pull Rolex a little bit with this one and I’m now mid-way through 6-month delivery period as they apparently prioritized using duw-3001 caliber in other releases within early 2024.
But watch is so awesome (reference 191) that it is definely worth waiting to me.
Plus another upside I find in large delivery time - buyer’s remorse from making $3.5K hole in family budget is kinda vanished by the time you finally keep it in your hands.
By chance I spotted a Junghans collection at Schipol Airport - also a cool brand ! The Max Bill is my favourite.
I like this brand. Clear minimalist design, manufacture movement, stable value. Unfortunately, Nomos watches are now also somewhat more expensive. But the classic Tangente design (the watch for architects, so it is sometimes called here in Germany) now combined with rhodium still works.
Well of course the neomatik are more expensive than what we were used to
Love Nomos!
I'm leaning hard towards Nomos for a watch for my wedding. I'm between the Tangente and the Tetra
Check out Junghans too...
Oh please tell me you are not going for the Tetra. PS I would be looking for something with applied indices. GS (9F) or Seiko Dolce would be my angle: Classic and understated. Congrats, and an engraving service with D-Day would nice.
I like the dial but not the lugs and would prefer smaller size 6.5 inch wrist. And maybe a domed crystal. What do you think?
Both versions are very nice. I like the open backside of the 35mm version a bit more. There is also a version without an open back, but I do not like that.
Very nice from all sides
This year is the year I will get one, my very first mechanical watch.
What do you think about small seconds vs Central seconds?
Can you highlight on watches with a case size 42mm or larger more often?
Teddy, What jacket are you wearing?
Beautiful. I must go and see Nomos outlet
Hey Teddy, How are you? Are you going to cover the new watches in detail released by Ultra luxury brand like Patek, VC etc??
Beautiful
Can you please make a video focused on different thin/slim luxury watces or your favourite/recommended watches with a thinner design?
Ted, what are your thoughts about Sandoz brand?
Great video Teddy. Great watches. Probably the best pieces refering to BAUHAUS tradition. Glashütte = glas hut . In 1445 it was named Glaßehutte
Everyone butchers the name of this town. What is wrong with glass-hut'a?
@@citizen116 it is pronounced
"glAshewtuh"
Im not even making this up, i know German very well
Nice Zenith Chronomaster 😉
Its like a lottery. One gets a 3s deviation vs 9s deviation movement. Still much tighter than 6r15s
what's on your wrist??
Looks Great!
Could you review on Nomos Club Sport 42mm Sport Blue Dial
Patek's own 324 and the ETA 2892 have been running at 42 hours PR and doesn't look set to change so it could be argued that perhaps the power reserve for a watch of this price point isn't that much of an issue (ignoring Swatch's Powermatic 80 which can't be regulated by a normal watchmaker)
can someone tell what is the brand of his jacket?
is it normal that the you can hear the ticking from 5 feet away on a slightly quiet environment? Is my Tangente broken?
Teddy could start a fashion channel nice suede jacket
Do you only review watch brands that you sell?
Anybody know why the 37.5mm is less precise than the 35mm?
You either love the Nomos or you just don't get it. That thin, long lug, simple, classic yet somehow very modern look. I love it.
Compare Sinn 903 Navitimer vs Breitling Navitimer
I like the smaller size better but would prefer the 5atm. Bummer it's only on the larger size.
Nomos making these watches with a gray dial is like putting handcuffs on someone in a straight-jacket, it was already restrained, did you need to take it further?
Well put! Minimalism is great but it’s really getting repetitive. They need to bring some of that movement innovation to their dial and model design too. They all look like the same thing.
Gorgeous watch. What drives me slightly crazy is people keep complaining the lugs are super long. While they’re not short, the illusion that they are super long comes from how thin and angular they are.
What a sharp looking watch! For 3 and 1/2 Grand $, I'm disappointed that there's only 30m water resistance. That is a deal breaker for me. Whoever does purchase one should spring for the see through case back. It would be a crime to hide that movement.
Would you really use this watch in a swimming pool or where water resistance is going to affect it?
The 37.5mm one has 50m resistance.
The silver hands on a grey dial worries me a bit. I kinda wish they had gone with blue or black hands. Anyone have any experience with the watch in terms of legitability?
The polished hands look black most of the time because they're highly reflective. I haven't had an issue.
One problem is that for servicing send to nomos German factory
Great video and watch. Just a note: the g in tangente is pronounced as a g in English.
No: it is a german word and he pronounced it completely correct.
... and, in any case, there are several different ways in which the letter 'g' is pronounced in English ...
I just can’t get over those long lugs.
Someone's avoiding the MoonSwatch lol
Waiting on the Black Bay Pro review!
The Bauhaus schtick is getting tired-they’re just repeating themselves as nauseum now. The movements are great but the watches all look the same, except for the ones that look ridiculous (like the square one). Squareish watches are cool-I have a Tank-but the bare design gets old. And my biggest pet peeve is the absurd lug length, which, paired with the extreme thinness, makes anything over 36mm look like a dinner plate on a wrist.
"glass-hoot'-tuh" (auf Deutsch); "glashoot-uh" (in Clevelandese); "glaz'-shoot' (if you wish to annoy).
Why the lug of Nomos always extend so long? It looks weird.
How did they forget the blue hands?
While I understand why they didn't use blue hands here, I agree that it would have looked better. I just got a Tangente silvercut in preference to an Orion silvercut precisely because the Tangente had blue hands while the Orion did not.
The only problem with nomos is that they don’t really offer more casual / sport watches. Mostly everything is dressy and on a leather strap…and that’s just not the market need / trend right now (hasn’t been for a while) especially when people increasingly work from home and dress more casually.
I would like this watch on a white rubber strap or something else. But the black leather one is not it
I have the Nomos / Seagull colab called the "Rider" lol
Minimalist design but maximum prices.
@Max E They don't have minimalist design. Rolex and Omega are in a totally different league than NOMOS.
Those are nice watches but the hands still look a little cheap especially the small seconds hands.
These watches are Fuego 🔥 need one in my collection just so classy looking and sexy🔥🔥💪💪
Very Bauhaus!
Nois somos a moral
Entendeu?!
Have a shop around the corner that sells them but unfortunately I find them unappealing. The Sinn U50 sits in the same shop window, now that looks like a man’s watch😁
He is on the nail about one thing, the movement looks better than the face. So get the more expensive glass-back version and wear it bottoms 🆙
Same same from Nomos. It's a nice watch, but meh
Don't like the dial treatment. Contrast is too low. When I look at a watch, first and foremost, I want to see what time it is!!
@Max E Iphones aren't convenient for wearing on one's wrist which is why I use a watch. Last time I took out my iphone my keys and wallet came out too. It was like a party on the ground. And then there are the gymnastics you have when driving but that's for another time...
Remarkably thin beautiful movement. But
Poor dial legibility?? Have you seen any Nomos watches in person? It seems to me that they have some of the cleanest, clearest, and *most* legible dials.
@@md95065 the hands on *these* models are camouflaged into the dial color. when they use blued/colored hands and indices, that wouldn't be a con.
I was thinking about buying Nomos. It is a bit too simple for me. If I spend a few grand on a watch, I want it too feel special. The stats are not great. Low beat rate, not super accurate, and 43 hours power reserve. The long logs bother me too. I want it to be a little more innovative too. It is not a coaxial or a spring drive. It is thin, but that not enough for me. I get why people like Nomos because it is so understated which a lot people like brands like MVMT and DW got so popular. They are very simple and understated. I do think it looks good, but it just too understated and too underwhelming for me to spend several grands. I'll buy it for a few hundred for something like this. I know this watch isnt for me. I'm sure.
@@alexlilano1931 the long lugs make them look like dinner plates on wrists. Look up photos of them in the wild!
Boycotting long lugs. Permanently.
Eliminates many brands/models.
Check out their Minimatik. Underrated line in their catalog and doesn’t have the longer lugs like most of their other lines.
I’m willing to bet that most who complain about Nomos’ lug length haven’t even seen them in person. The lug-to-lug is more than reasonable.
Review by Peter Parker
Please Teddy, you pronounce Glashütte as two Words: Glas Hütte. Not as Glasjute.
Jawohl! There’s no “sh”. If there was it would be written as “sch”. Glashütte is actually a combination of two words, Glas and Hütte! :)
$4K for a MVMT design… no thanks
Cheap printed indices is just not good enough for a premium watch.
Again I think Nomos is overpriced. Problem with minimalist is you can only do so much. Yes the designs are pretty and elegant but don't match the price tag and the lugs look bad.
first
Minimalist paying $3500 doesn't make any sense!
The movements inside are very sophisticated.
Baby watches! Worthless to a man with a workers wrist. Make a 44mm and trim the lugs and sell thousands!
not a fan just bit too plain for me cheers
To me, they are plain in not a good way. They must look way better in person. To each his own I guess.
Nonos Che schifo 🤢🤮
Slightly boring.
@Max E I do like Nomos though…
