This is my third in two months. I really have to slow down, but there are at least two more on my list.
The Zürich Worldtimer is one of my favorite watches of all time. It came on a beautiful black cordovan leather strap, but unfortunately it’s just a little too dressy for how I’m dressed 95% of the time.
I found a few quick-change straps from Delugs and decided to give them a try. I realize neither of these looks will be for everyone, but I think they completely change the look and feel of the watch and make it much easier to wear casually every day.
Pictured are the Cognac Pueblo Slim Strap and Dark Grey Alcantara Signature Strap, both in large, on my 7.5" (19 cm) wrist.
I also have a Navy Sailcloth Strap on the way, although it’s currently backordered. I have a feeling that one might end up being the real winner.
While I've only had them a few days, the quality seems pretty decent for the price at about $100 USD each and is in line with the $90 to $150USD NOMOS charges for theirs.
Been wanting a Nomos for a while but I don't like my watch to sit to close to the end of my wrists with long lugs. Once I found out about how Nomos for 2026 brought down the size of the lugs of the Club Campus 36mm it made me very happy to see if ownership was a possibility. I was so stuck on color as I wanted to do the Night Sky (blue). But, something just really caught my attention with this olive color. Matched me well and was a nice offset to the denim that I consistently wear. I tried on the 38mm and it fit great. But I wanted more classic in sizing so I went for the 36mm and was not disappointed. Its slim and sleek but made for everyday wear with great water resistance. I love how the band also doesn't seem to gain smell which is really nice as with leather straps. I noticed anything I did (especially cycling) would make my watch straps smell over time if it wasn't a rubber strap. Since all my mechanical watches have been automatics I am new to the manual wind but spending time with my watch daily or every two days to wind just feels great and keeps me connected.
I learned the hard way that my 6.75" wrist even though very flat and a great platform for watches case sizing up to 42mm would work. But my thing was the dials always looked too large and I don't like it when a watch looks doesn't look in proportion to the wearer. I grew up with my first nice watch being a 39mm Movado which I always loved something thin. But I grew an affinity for divers because of the water resistance and it just made more sense with my active lifestyle. After getting a Panerai Luminor Due in 42mm I fell in love with having a sub-seconds feature. To me it adds something special with a nice dress watch. My thing with the Luminor is the symmetry was thrown off by the crown guard and the date feature which I enjoy but I don't really need. So I sold it.
Pretty much afforded me a great Tudor Black Bay 54 and Nomos Club Campus. Which keep way better time. Bring a lot of variety and fun. I still have a few watches given to me as gifts but these were something that made my upcoming 40th very very special!
I love the look of the Club 36mm (https://nomos-glashuette.com/en-us/club/club-701.1), simple and goes with just about everything. Is there an automatic version of the same watch? Or has one ever been produced?
I don't hate having to wind a watch, but I feel like it would be perfect as an automatic (and still as compact). All the automatic clubs either come in crazy colors or in "huge" sizes (41mm).
Curious if the experts have any leads for me. Thanks!
Just wanted to share the joy!
It's already become my main daily driver. Took it out for a drive with a partial solar eclipse in the background (my husband snapped the photo from the passenger seat).
I gave ChatGPT the dimensions for both watches and then uploaded a pic of me wearing my 38mm Aqua Terra. I wanted to see if it could scale the 34mm club to my wrist size (7.75”) based off the look of the Aqua Terra. Does this look accurate at all? I always heard they wear larger due to the lugs and male end links. I’m comfortable with 36mm, never sized down 34mm though.
Does anyone have a 34mm club with a larger wrist? 7” and up?
I’m having a recurring issue with my NOMOS watch and would appreciate some input from the community.
The main problem is that the watch occasionally stops running even though it has been fully wound. When this happens, it sometimes won’t restart on its own. If I gently move/shake the watch in a circular motion, the balance starts oscillating again and the watch begins running.
The current rate is around +10 to +30 seconds per day, it’s not as good as two years ago (0 to +2 a day).
The watch has already been sent to NOMOS for service once. After the service, it initially ran very well, but the problem eventually returned. I have also tried demagnetizing it myself, without resolving the issue.
The watch is now around three years old.
Has aanyone experienced something similar with an Alpha calibre?
Any ideas or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
I have to admit that I've always thought the 2date was a bit silly. And I probably still do. But this watch just looks so damn good!
Looking to buy this early NOMOS Tangente 35 would appreciate some opinions on its authenticity.
Does this look like a genuine early-production Tangente to experienced NOMOS owners?
Thanks for any help
Joined the Nomos "Club" (pun intended lol)! The 36mm dial with the shorter 44mm lug to lug make the watch fit like a glove. This is my first manual watch, and the winding experience was extremely satisfying.
Id been wanting to pick up a watch while I was out here in Europe. I’ve Club Campus Night (738) on my list for quite a while.
Today I had an appointment in Paris as Hu Horologerie and was all set to purchase the watch with the black suede strap. I had provided my passport for VAT and while they were processing, I noticed they had the same watch on a bracelet which piqued my interest. It was the same price and I figured “it’s always better to buy the bracelet and I could just swap out for a suede strap later”.
So I asked them if I could get the one on the bracelet instead. It was then that they realized that the price was tagged incorrectly and should have been 70 Euros more than was listed.
I asked them if they would honor the price they had and they ended up saying yes which was a nice surprise. Anyways, nice to be part of the club and highly recommend Hu Horlogerie if you’re in Paris.
