Nomos Glashütte

And, you know, the, the formatting of a watch and how it's laid out.

Is it integrated? Does it have, you know, lugs that immediately shoot down? Does it have lugs like a Nomos that are quite long? You know, there are so many factors, and I think the average, the average person just wants a nice watch and they're happy with one.

[laughs]

But then even when you go a layer deeper, um, you know, I still to this day am not great about, you know, looking up what a lug-to-lug is because I just want to see the watch usually at this point.

You have to try it.

And I think it even seconds the point that we made in the first episode of needing to, to try these things on and why it's so hard to, why it's so hard to do online.

Now, one thing that, that you brought up as well, Nomos with the longer lugs and the Royal Oak with an integrated bracelet, I mean, I saw it on the, the T-Cell on the PRX.

I bought a 40 millimeter, and I never got to try it on, you know, and, and I pulled the trigger, and it gets in the mail.

They were very welcoming and so on.

I think it was the same with Nomos.

They were very different.

I kind of think that they...

But you and I know a lot of people in the industry, in the community.

And okay, we are watch people, so we change our watches.

But even the watches that people do come back to, I don't remember knowing anyone who comes back to a Sin or a Nomos or a Laco.

Yeah.

Headhunted

... by Nomos to go off and be their head of sales.

Nice.

Yeah.

So I saw your Nomos today, right?

Yeah, yeah.

[laughs]

Well, this came after I left Nomos, actually.

So I think that's absolutely fine.

So I also believe that Gale is in this pool of watches, also price-wise, that is a Tudor, a TAG, a Longines, and then you have watches like Nomos and Sinn and so on and so on.

And that said, that also immediately means that there's a lot of competition in this price bracket, right? So they are between 3,000, and the most expensive one with the B09 is, like, 6 or 6 and a half thousand.

Yeah.

Try one on.

But yeah, I mean, obviously 47 is fine on my wrist, but just compared to the 38, it just, those are Nomos lugs, frankly.

Old Nomos lugs, not the current ones.

And they're chunky.

And they're chunky.

In fact, in Sirus, i- in the origin of where dolphins come, there's been this wave of dolphin, of Sirus, of souls from there that are on that energy level of dolphins have been coming here and embodying into humans.

There's a little known species that are called the Nomos.

I'm not sure if you're aware of them.

You are? I fig- well, I, I should have figured.

No, I just thought that I'd heard of them.

Uh, the Nomos have had a big play.

The Nomos prefer...

They, they, they are kind of an energy-type being that prefer taking the bodies of humans and dolphins that are from Sirius B. Um-

But Rob and I did discuss both Frédéric Constant and Alpina in depth.

You had two separate stands, and we said on air that hands down, besides Rolex, the busiest stands at Watches and Wonders were Nomos, Frédéric Constant, and Alpina.

Yeah, true.

We had 1,100 meeting points there, yeah.

And when we talk about German watches, it's usually of a style.

It's like Nomos, or you've got that more, I don't know, utilitarian grunt.

You think of some of the guys like Sinn or Zeitwinkel.

This here, playing at the price point of under 2,000 USD, and then you've got your duties, I believe it's about 99 bucks on top of that to have it fully landed, customs, et cetera, et cetera.
