this Nomos interaction of yours is like when you message a girl and she ghosts you for a few years but turns out she was in prison so it's all good. We've all been there, so relatable
Among the more unexpected words on a JOMW video: 'This video is sponsored by Nomos' - quite the statement all by itself! Congrats Jody and very well deserved.
I bought my Nomos after watching a factory tour of A Lange and Sohne. The factories are close together. Several of the A Lange and Sohne watchmakers were wearing Nomos watches.
Super pretty! And I can say that not only from the video, but from the the favt I owe exactly the same one! The color indeed is unique, and is for sure a conversation starter! Highly recommended.
Nomos is one of my favourite brands, and the customer service is as amazing as their watches. I own a Club Campus Amsterdam Limited Edition, but that orange one is amazing.
Welcome to the family! I just got my ref.177 last month and I love it! I hope you enjoy your watch as much as i have mine and then some. I love some of their watches and hate others. Nomos is amazing watch for the money nonetheless. Too bad about not having a display caseback because they have the most nicely finished movements in the 1000-5000 price range. You are right about the lugs. Unnaturally long but that is part of their image and calling card. I made a mock up of mine before pulling the trigger. Some of their watches also have the all dial dinner plate effect to contend with also. 🥂
Awesome, out of all of their watches, I like the Club the most. Been thinking of picking one up for ages! I was only on their website last night scoping out models. Great watch!
I do love the orange and the California dial. Great choice Jody. My Nomos grail which I purchased in 2022 is the Ahoi Neomatik in Siren Blue - what a fantastic color!! The sport bracelet is super slick and comfortable - but I had my jeweler do the sizing, since those screws are certainly too tiny for me to have to deal with. Nomos make some super cool watches.
I have a 7" wrist too, and I've almost bought this model a couple of times. That is until I've been reminded of the absurd lug to lug length, which instantly puts me off. And besides that, there are so many non-dealbreakers, as mentioned in the review, that stack up to feel like it's not a very good deal. Great review though, always fun to watch!
Great video as always. Love the look of the bracelet- similar to the original Timex Q series from the 1960s but adjusting it is guaranteed to raise your blood pressure. Also I wonder if small seconds dial wouldn't look better if the hand was colored the same as the 2 hands on the main dial.
Fun colour. Perhaps when you get my grail I can enjoy it vicariously since I won't be able to affor to buy it for myself. Congrats on getting your 2019 grail in 2023.
Great choice, the orange really pops!! Shame you could not get a exhibition caseback for this model. I love my Nomos Ahoi in Bucherer blue, its amazing quality for your money. The lugs are little smaller on this model aswell, comparing it to the club!!
That is fabulous. I too am a complete sucker for orange. A lot of my watches has a flash of orange. I now need to change this up… a flash of another colour with majority orange. I have wanted a California dial for ever. This Nomos would scratch the two itches!! Back to saving!!!
You indeed could be happier with the “mesh” bracelet which looks similar to your sport bracelet but does not require disassembly to adjust the fit. My Nomos Tangente Sport manual with a 36.5mm case and Nomos’s other bracelet fits fine on my 16cm wrist.
Really fancy a Nomos but fraid I’m in the non California dial camp. Would defiantly try one on first because of the lug to lug although my wrist is the same as yours Jody. My fave was always the Club but need to take a closer look at the range. Top review as always sir. 😁
Jody, the color orange is no longer only for diver's watch color anymore. A lot of fine dress watches are orange dials, too. Bring some color to your drab black suits. 😂😮😊👍
That looks great, talking of orange watches, i wish you saw my email the other day as i included a photo of a casio world time that i modified to be completely orange! I can appreciate the sheer amount of emails you recieved though!
I bought myself a black one of these a few years ago. Can't even remember when I graduated 😂. I do like the watch but I've realised I no longer enjoy winding a watch. 😂. Mine runs at +10s a day.
Summer is coming and that is just the perfect colour 👍 Personally though I would have preferred the seconds to be red to stand out rather than invisible with the same colour. But love the simplicity of Nomos ❤ One day I hope to get one myself...🤞
I would reverse the bracelet direction to sort out the logo alignment. The Club sport neomatik 37 has a really nice bracelet with fitted endlinks that would look great on your watch
Jody its 330am here...but its a Nomos so carry on. It really deserves a glass back for the Zee- Gul look and the proper Roman 4 ,,, hurrah! I wonder if this makes sense when I'm awake and my eyes can focus on the tiny bloody phone
My grail watch is the Nomos Autobahn with the dark grey/blue dial, but I do also like the club. I've always thought that a blue sub-second hand would go much better with the orange dial though.
Don’t know what it is about orange watches. I only own one (Helm Komodo) but it gets a lot of wrist time. There are other orange options I think I would go for like the devil diver rather than the Nomos because they represent better value to me. Great vid Jody. Merci!
Nope. I love Cali-dials.. I love Orange.. I love small seconds.. but I hate this watch. But I'm genuinely happy you like it. Life would be dull if we all liked the same thing. Great video as always!
I’m also a sucker for orange watches I own several watches just because they’re orange. I also will buy a yellow dial which are very rare once I bought the yellow dial version over the orange and I ended up going back and buying the orange too. I do have a problem. The first step is admitting it, but I’ve never been past step one.
That bracelet is so elegant and sharp, I’ve never seen a bracelet done like that before. But the clasp being upside down is a deal breaker for my OCD self 👀
@@JustOneMoreWatchthat’s weird. I just checked. You can spec a display case back for some colours but not others. Wonder if it’s a cock up with the website.
@@JustOneMoreWatch I noticed someone in a Facebook watch group had the orange one with the exhibition case back and he told me you can email Nomos to do a special order. I wound up working with Watches of Switzerland (my local AD) to place the special order. Communication with Nomos was not quick or easy but they are fulfilling the request. The order is placed and I’m hoping to have it by January. I’m excited 😊
Congratulations on the watch. That's a very nice color and it will go with lots of straps from your strap collection. How do you think it does compared to Farer watches? The bright color made me think of their 36mms from the start. The orange rubber is a real looker, though!
I have the previous gen Nomos Club Ref 703, 36mm with a glass sapphire back. I bought the watch, because every time I saw a picture of the watch, I felt like biting it.
I don't want to sound harsh, but the Club Campus watches remind me of a Nomos/Swatch collaboration. Having said that, they are the only ones I like in their catalog.
Very nice watch but I would prefer it in a dark color, maybe a Burgundy. Love a thin watch and I don't yet have a hand winder. Guess I had better start saving my pennies.
Recently 36 mm watches have become quite common to wear even for men. So you could have mentioned the 36 mm version as an alternative for smaller wristed guys
I'm saving up for this one! Dunno when I have the money or what color I will get, but I will get one next year. I have a 7,5 inch wrist, so that is probably big enough 😂😅.
I love Nomos, but I like my gen2 orange Monster, admittedly not the same category. A Carolina Blue second hand to match the Arabic outline might be a nice touch.
Jody man, you keep pushing orange and i may have to finally cave in and get something (anything) in orange. Maybe a cheap aliexpress just to see what you are on about. You wont see me with the tiffany blue but maybe a solid orange might catch on
I enjoy your channel and generally agree with your reviews, but I really don't get this watch and question the value equation, but if you enjoy it, carry on sir!!
Congratulations Jody! Great video as always! Totally agree with you on the orange, its orange at most times, but under bright sunlight turns slightly yellow, couldn't stop thinking about it and finally after 6 months of waiting for it to land in Malaysia, im finally gonna collect it next week. I went with the 36mm. Enjoy it in good health Jody!
This color should be called "Endless Summer Orange." I don't mind the gap between case and spring bars and I'm not normally a fan of bracelets, but that one is gorgeous. Not a criticism, but I've never quite understood Cali dial - is there some history/purpose there, or is it just aesthetic?
I qustioned its existance once and was refered to a Wiki that said it was developed in WW2 by USA to aid low light legibility, but I'm not convinced, when you look at the British "Dirty Dozen" or the German Flieger for comparison.
this Nomos interaction of yours is like when you message a girl and she ghosts you for a few years but turns out she was in prison so it's all good. We've all been there, so relatable
Ahahaha!
Bit close to the bone there Kyle. 🧐
Most normal Kyle thing to say
Well pal. Be carefull, with a girl, that have been in prison. 😆
As a criminal defense lawyer, I approve of this message
Among the more unexpected words on a JOMW video: 'This video is sponsored by Nomos' - quite the statement all by itself! Congrats Jody and very well deserved.
Also cool to see Nomos sponsoring a video, I haven’t seen that before? Good to see them promoting themselves more not that they need to!
I would have picked the orange dial too. It's a warm, friendly orange. More watchmakers should offer orange dials.
Such a good colour. Not Devil Diver orange, but more subtle.
I bought my Nomos after watching a factory tour of A Lange and Sohne. The factories are close together. Several of the A Lange and Sohne watchmakers were wearing Nomos watches.
You were brave enough to criticize the defects, I respect that!
Super pretty! And I can say that not only from the video, but from the the favt I owe exactly the same one! The color indeed is unique, and is for sure a conversation starter! Highly recommended.
Nomos is one of my favourite brands, and the customer service is as amazing as their watches. I own a Club Campus Amsterdam Limited Edition, but that orange one is amazing.
Wow that dial with the orange strap looks stellar. Good choice Jody. The lack of an option for display case back is shame though.
Put on a perlon or single pass nato and the lugs will appear shorter because the material will fill the gap
I love the enthusiasm and I’m excited you got your grail.

Beautiful watch, orange Mido Multifort chrono is one of my favorite daily wears, bring orange to the mainstream!
Love it. I bought the electric green 36 model for myself back in May. It hasn't left my wrist since.
Nice one. Enjoy it! (You clearly are)

The siren blue is a killer colour.
I normally don't like the "California dial". But, with Nomos's minimalist design, this model could be an exception. Thanks for the review, Jody!

Got ya ! I bought it last summer. The white version. Beautiful watch!
Fun colour. Perhaps when you get my grail I can enjoy it vicariously since I won't be able to affor to buy it for myself. Congrats on getting your 2019 grail in 2023.
Good points on the gap between the bracelet and the case, and the teeny-tiny bracelet link screws.
Love Nomos! That gorgeous orange would make a great gift for a Dutch friend 😁

Thanks Jodi! I have the same watch and love it!
Kinda like what happens when a Timex Weekender reads a bauhaus design book. That orange is such a happy colour. Like therapy on your wrist.
That's nice. I like a thin watch. I can live with hand wind especially without a date.
One of my future ‘grail’ watches too. Thanks for the review

@@larsl7483 Oh yes, we are the opposite side of the world...your summer is our winter and vice versa.

Congratulations Jody!
I don’t understand how, but Nomis designs are just gorgeous
A stunner, congrats Jody! Gonna need to add one of these to my collection too 😈
GORGEOUS, orange strap looks great.
Don’t know what it is about orange watches. I only own one (Helm Komodo) but it gets a lot of wrist time. There are other orange options I think I would go for like the devil diver rather than the Nomos because they represent better value to me. Great vid Jody. Merci!
Owner of Future Orange here to brag. I also spend a bit more on a display caseback! Now that’s a beauty! It is such a strap monster on nato.
Fun to watch and fun to wear, how subtle masterpice, period
Congratulations! Just in time for summer too.
Yeeeeeeeah! Wearing it at Sydney Zoo today, not a cloud in the sky.
Nope. I love Cali-dials.. I love Orange.. I love small seconds.. but I hate this watch. But I'm genuinely happy you like it. Life would be dull if we all liked the same thing. Great video as always!
I'm glad you got a watch you like, doc!
Asymmetric wrists... mmhmm, mmhmm... 😏
Fancy these. Only seen with the grey straps. I like the pink or green pop.
glad you made the switch to 4 k!
I think the lug length suits the watch. A little pricy for what it is but still a nice lookin watch. Thanks for sharing it.
I’m also a sucker for orange watches I own several watches just because they’re orange.

Love it! I ordered the exact same watch in March and haven’t received it yet. I requested a exhibition caseback so it is going to take a while 😅
How did you manage to get the caseback Jim? It isn;t an option on their website, I am jealous!
@@JustOneMoreWatchthat’s weird. I just checked. You can spec a display case back for some colours but not others. Wonder if it’s a cock up with the website.

Mazel tov on the NOMOS! My favorite one is the cream coral. Haven't bought it...yet.
Very nice watch but I would prefer it in a dark color, maybe a Burgundy. Love a thin watch and I don't yet have a hand winder. Guess I had better start saving my pennies.
It’s a cool a watch, I enjoy wearing it.

Well seeing you left Scotland many years ago. That dial will get you into some bother.
Hi and thanks for the great review. By the way it is possible to order the Camous with a display caseback! Greetings from Bavaria
I'm saving up for this one! Dunno when I have the money or what color I will get, but I will get one next year. I have a 7,5 inch wrist, so that is probably big enough 😂😅.
I love orange watches- most my collection is orange. My grail is the Rolex OP in red coral.
A lovely watch. I agree that California dials look better after dark, but only if they lack lume. My OCD doesn't tolerate them!
Agreed. Having no lume would be an improvement.
California dials also look better when wearing a very long sleeve shirt or jacket over the dial.
I've seen a lot of bulkier dive watches with smaller lug-to-lug. Nomos does exaggerate in that dimension.
Just love Nomos design
Stunning watch. Any colour. Better with the leather strap tho. Thx!!
I love Nomos, but I like my gen2 orange Monster, admittedly not the same category. A Carolina Blue second hand to match the Arabic outline might be a nice touch.
I like a California dial, but when half the numerals are replaced by hash marks (aside from the 3 & 9), that kind of kills it.
You dont have the option of a open case back? I ordered mine with just that a few weeks ago.
Congrats on that citrus grail!
Thanks man!
Surely if the metal strap was fitted the other way round the words line up with the dial ?
Weekend, wake up, coffee, cheese scones, Just one more watch, Weekend complete 😊
Jody man, you keep pushing orange and i may have to finally cave in and get something (anything) in orange. Maybe a cheap aliexpress just to see what you are on about. You wont see me with the tiffany blue but maybe a solid orange might catch on
Hang on until the 30th of September..... ;)
Such a juicy dial. 🍊🍊🍊
Yep. Grail for me too. Minimatik for me.
Very cool bracelet!
Can't understand why they dont just also make a short lug version. Such a great looking watch.
Can you get the orange strap from Nomos. I’ve had a look on their website and I can’t find it. Do I have to look elsewhere. Thanks in advance. Matt
Hi. I live in Sydney, can you please tell me where I can see them in Sydney. I've not been able to see any of them in person.
I enjoy your channel and generally agree with your reviews, but I really don't get this watch and question the value equation, but if you enjoy it, carry on sir!!
Wow. Sponsored by Nomos. Channels really taking off Jody 💪
Hi Jody. I am visiting Sydney next week. Where can i pick up the Oris Drivers 65 calibre 400 at the best discount?
Congratulations Jody! Great video as always! Totally agree with you on the orange, its orange at most times, but under bright sunlight turns slightly yellow, couldn't stop thinking about it and finally after 6 months of waiting for it to land in Malaysia, im finally gonna collect it next week. I went with the 36mm.
Enjoy it in good health Jody!
Please turn up the volume. Thanks
Jody they do offer a display case back at least now three hours after your video
The clasp seems to stick out a bit on the wrist. Looks like it will get caught on things throughout the day.

I have the hot pink, 36mm. I love it.
Nomos are absolutely not my sort of brand, but I appreciate the passion.
Yes
Very nice. Bracelet looks great, but those screws!!? Lose one...... well you're screwed!!?? 😅😂
I always felt Nomos watches look incredible in pictures and terrible on wrist with the lug gap. It's an Instagram watch.
