Next Level Sports Nomos - Club Sport Neomatik 42

- This is the first Nomos I've purchased, and it's hard to describe how sharp and well-rounded this release is. But hopefully this video can accurately convey what a special sport watch it is, and what nice attention to detail Nomos Glashutte paid throughout the design and production process.
I bought this from J. Brooks jewelers here in Murray Utah. They are a family owned brick and mortar AD - a great place to pick up Nomos, Bell & Ross, Carl Bucherer, and Oris. Ask for Brooks-

Thanks!
That bracelet 🙌 I’m starting to get really tired of the constant dive watches and vintage look watches. This is the sort of thing that is starting to catching my eye. Really nice piece 😘
Thanks Lee!
Nomos is amazing. In-house, high quality, great design, great value.
Nomos has been a slow burn for me. The more I researched their design language the more I appreciated their watches. Now I am hooked! They're absolutely stunning watches.
I feel similarly man. I've always appreciated them, but after puting this one on and buying it... its really multpiled how I feel about the brand
this is literally happening to me as I type this haha, I have never been all that impressed by them, but the more I look into the overall company as well as all their designs, wow Im really impressed
did you ever get one of your own??
I feel like nomos has the most sleek everyday design
This watch is absolutely sick and it will be mine. It seems to do everything perfectly.
Omg, quick release micro adjust! Everyone needs to do this. Great watch and review.
I'm obsessed with this Nomos.
Thanks for the informative review Bruce! I just returned from Glashutte Germany (on vacation) and you are correct, Nomos is literally right across the street from Glashutte Original and A Lange and Sohne :)
That is awesome, I would LOVE to go visit oneday... all three buildings!
@@BruceWilliams Thanks Bruce! There is a quick video tour of Glashutte (Watch Museum) on my RUclips channel if you are interested :)
Great, great watch. They have to be recognised for their originality, dial and especially the beautifull bracelet. I love this brand a lot for the details they do so well. Bruce, a lot of applause for filming this in a spectacular way, for the watch can be truly appreciated as much as you possibly can on video!
Thank you
This watch is for those that appreciate artisanal work and quality product
Brilliant mate. This watch was on my list and has now been bumped up. Enjoy it wth good health
Thank you!
Stunning dial and truly unique watch. The others will soon be aping that bracelet and this aesthetic.
Loving the bracelet and the ease of adjustment. Another great one Bruce!
Just got a Club Campus Neomatik this week and I’m over the moon with it! Totally agree with Bruce - under appreciated brand. Killer timepieces, especially in person
Hey Bruce, fantastic video mate I was loving the 767 but after this video I was starting to lean towards this watch so I called my local deal and BAM! One was in stock, tried it on and fits perfectly on my 7.5 inch wrist and pulled the trigger , I bloody love this watch. Sending love and happiness from Australia, thanks for the great content mate
Anthony Bilic as a fellow Aussie, which dealer did you get it from and $$?
@@lifesanabyss2727 monards in crown Melbourne, couldn't fault their service and knowledge. Got them down to $4750. Hope that helps mate
Anthony Bilic thanks mate, that was a good deal, I’ll be seeing the Gold Coast Monards in a few weeks
That looks like a Speidel band. Need to do something with the end links to close the gap.
Yeah there is something awkward about that
I appreciated the wedding music when you introduced this watch.
Nomos already hook me, I am glad that I bought nomos and looking to add Ahoi or world timer. Love your video too
I really enjoyed this video Bruce , your camera work is great as always. Nomos has been on my radar for a while now as they are brilliant value for what they offer. I do like the look of their white dialled Tangente Neomatik on bracelet and I will have to get to an AD soon to see it in the metal.
I love the idea of that bracelet but.... poor choice for that entirely polished case in my opinion. Kinda looks like an elastic band that was found in a drawer that was stuck on the watch lol.
That said.... it looks INCREDIBLY comfortable. The tolerances are so tight too, it looks silken against the wrist.
It is butter smooth!
I love my Neomatik 41. Nomos makes awesome watches for the money. I love that everyone doesn't know what it is when it's on my wrist. It's really only the true watch guys who get it.
Great video, Bruce. Really like the very practical and multi-angle, multi-situational displaying of the watch and you're discussion around the purchasing experience and the expected servicing. The more I see this Club case design, the more I want one of these. The case reminds me a little of the "other" Glashutte brands while still being distinctly Nomos and I like that. I'm hoping I can sell a couple Tag Hueres and have something like this join my Omega Seamaster PO. I think I'd get this one with a leather or NATO strap in my case!
Great job, Bruce. I've been messaging Brooks to start working on which one I'm going to get. I think I may trade in or sell my Orion. Love the music, too, LOL.
I'm excited for you man and I get the logic. If I owned both the orion and the world time (or another your looking at) I would grab the world time everytime. So makes sense to replace a nomos with a nomos
Got mine in blue on the other bracelet showing up tomorrow. Can’t wait!
Damn it. You're making me want a NOMOS even more!
Just sent my blue to my AD for service after the stem popped out (known issue). The only real problem with sending the watch into Nomos these days is the cost to ship to Germany ($80 from NJ) and then the customs charges that occur on Germanys side and that’s before any service charges. It’s still my favorite piece and I plan to buy this black one too, but it’s good to be aware. Be sure to take advantage of your AD’s warranty.
Great video! Your channel is as good as it’s speeding up my watch collecting speed: ordered a Nomos Club 38 and can‘t wait for it. Greetings from Germany
Ordered one last week. I put it on my wrist in Switzerland but couldnt justify to buy it there, as it is slightly more expensive there (poor german). But after your video i was totally convinced and ordered one online. The value of this watch and Nomos in general is unbelievable.
I just got this watch and i absolutely love it. It is amazing to look at and it is very confortable on wrist with that awesome bracelet. The movement is amazing as well, the fact that you can get an in house movement very well made sub 4k is awesome.
Ooh, I like this, don't normally look at Nomos but this is nice. I would prefer the bracelet to taper, but at least it is 20mm which is good... Nice watch!
Once again, Bruce makes me have to get a watch.....I'm getting this one.
Dang it, I need a Nomos in my life. I love their sport line, and between this and your Nomos dealer video, this may be my big watch purchase at some point in the next couple years. I have the same size wrist and 42mm is perfect for me. I also love the Tangente neomatik 41 Update though. I need to see if I can find some locally to try on.
Be warned the more you look into the brand the more you'll want one lol
If you get a chance, I recommend seeing it live. It's so much nicer in person
That dial is really awesome, btw. Did not expect it to be so enamel-like. Lume looks like it's almost poured in, like in some panerai luminors.
Best review of this watch I have seen. I have two Nomos and I feel a third is coming ......
That is what I like to hear!
That's a beautiful piece. Very tempting! Thanks for the great video. I'm looking forward to seeing your local AD. Cheers!
I never thought a black dial Nomos would be so beautiful. Wow.
If this came in a 39mm without a date, I would scoop it up in a second.
they make it in blue, check their website
Finally a Nomos that would suit my wrist... incredible value... better than entry level Rolex any day.
What a stunning and unique watch. This will be in the short list for my next couple of watches for the collection
This is to my thinking their best looking watch.....Would I own one, yes I think I would. Never thought I'd say that.
Congrats Bruce! It really is a stunning piece, and the bracelet is amazing. I could tell you were ready to pull the trigger the other night. I love this brand and the value they bring. Plus super cool swag 😉
For sure man
i got this one about a year ago and i love the understatement of a very very well excetued craftsmanship Nomos shows with this one, with a more rigid approach for the daily wear. Only thing I would criticise is the clasp that is a little of a scratch magnet, the scratches are fine for the braclet, just showing that the watch lives with me more then alot of higher priced watches i have, but the clasp seems to look for new scratches just on the edges, but thats it. Perhaps its great that its not perfect, otherwise I would have to say that is the best i can expect from Nomos and this minute imperfection just keeps me looking at the brand on and on.
Very cool watch- It stands out from a lot of other watches in its design. What's the water resistance? I think you do some great quality videos. I wonder how you find the time! I would love to own one of these watches... along with a lot of others:)
Cheers James! This one has 300m of water resistance
It looks like something Deckard would wear in blade runner .
Fantastic Bruce! Damn it I was fine in my little world where on my 8 in 1/8 wrist they didn't make a watch that would fit me but now thanks to you, I'm in love with this watch LOL outstanding video man congratulations !!! looks like a keeper
Definitely man, and thank you!
Very clean and versatile watch! Nice video as always 👍
This would be the nomos for me Bruce. I was tipping towards the tangente 42 on the same bracelet but the lume on this one is so much better.
Excellent, detailed review. Nomos=understated elegance.
Nice video ! Love Nomos, thinking about getting this one! Your video helped ✌🏼✌🏼
After a clear out and leaving my collection at 4 from 14 I’m really thinking about bringing a sport variant in . I still have my Ahoy 40mm which wears big so wondering if the 42 will be just too big considering it’s all face ..I absolutely love the dial on black Tangente , mint green indices with pops of red what a combo They don’t sell the bracelet separately I could use the bracelet with my Ahoy too . Such beautifully crafted watches at the price .and as 25 percent discount is readily available I don’t know if I can resist much longer .. it will all depend on whether I think the size is just too much .l
Very nice… next week is in my hands 😊
I hope the AR coating is only inside the sapphire glass and not also on the top
Man that is gorgeous. Well done
Thanks for this review. Liked the watch since the first video I saw it. I wanted to go sub 40mm with my next watch as I bought a 42mm El Primero this year and this seems similar in size. My wrist is 7 inch.
... very nice piece... typical German precision with excellent function and form but IMO the case and bracelet should be of the same finish... love the mechanics of the bracelet, but... it looks just like one of those cheap expanding efforts they had back in the day
That large date is a cool touch
Beautiful timepiece. I live in Holladay, so thanks for the tip on Brooks. We haven’t had an AD since Paul Thomas left the business. Cheers.
Your close!
Bruce Williams By the old Ctnwd Mall. You?

nice review, love the watch.
Thanks Brian!
I feel like some nomos like this look stunning and some, like the club campus, look pretty bad. It's really vexing
Love the watch, as others have said the bracelet does not fit the watch, everyone has an opinion right? The bracelet reminds me of one fitted to one of my Seikos in the 70's.
What a beautiful watch, love it ❤️
Are you still wearing the NOMOS frequently?
I like this watch and probably going to buy it. I have a question regarding the bracelet: is it more easy to get scratched then other bracelets (like Rolex) It seems like a very smooth and sensitive surface. Probably some here have experiences?!:)
Another question: I will be able to buy this watch for 2600€, what other watches like this are recommended? (3000-5000€)
Thanks
Stunning Watch
Great watch and great review. I own the bracelet. If there was one thing I could change it would be to have it taper down 2 mm toward the clasp. As it is you have a full 20 mm under your wrist at the clasp and sometimes it feels a bit much.
Great video - Stunning watch.
Really like this one, does anyone think this could work with a smaller wrist, like a 6.25cm wrist size? Tried the autobahn on and it looked a bit too big.
Sharp!
I contacted Nomos directly about the metal card holder. Sadly, they don’t make them anymore. After a search online, the few that I saw for sale….were sold. 😞
Nice watch face. I personally don't like the bracelet, but that is just personal preference. It would look killer on the right leather strap.
I totally agree with you when it comes to the details. Nomos is awesome at this point. I own an Orion 38 and I totally love that watch. But for this special model I don't know. The bracelet is absolutely not my type. To me, Nomos was always a thin leather bracelet. What also bothers me is that Nomos as adjusted the prices pretty much up over the last three years (especially for the club models). Sure, they only adapt to the market. And if the customer is willing to pay, they would be stupid to not raise prices. On the other hand, Nomos has always been to me a small manufacturer that gives the customer a lot of value for a relatively small amount of money.
But I am really not sure, if I like the way the company is on.
I hear you man and congrats on the 38! I do like how Nomos doesn't play the mark up game. For instance they could easily have priced this at 6,000 and I could haggle my AD down to 4,000. Instead they just priced it at market value to begin with. Most of the pieces are at higher price points but I love that they offer some sub 2000. Which is pretty amazing considering what you get.
As I know, only the models with new movements are significantly pricier.
Considering they developed movements that are COMPLETELY in house, it's actually okay. They make the whole escapement down to the hairspring. In fact, they are one of the only producers of hairsprings. It was an enormous financial effort. The finish on the movements might be mashine applied but is top notch for the price.
Nice piece the build quality and details are superb. Unfortunately the bracelet doesn’t appeal to me though the quality is there, maybe another option out there?
Nomos has excellent leather options, I would like to add a shell cordovan in the future. I also suggested to the rep that Nomos should create a rubber strap for the model
Is there any watch that gives more value for the money? I think not. This is awesome
I really need to grab this. I have a 6.75" wrist so I think it'll work well? not sure. Willing to push it.....OOOp....that wrist shot at 12:47.....maybe I'll find a Nomos AD and try some on. I have a Nomos at 38.5mm....fits well, but on the small side. Maybe 39-40 is a sweet spot. Anyway, great vid.
I would have loved to have a Nomos with central seconds. I don't like the small seconds, I love the view is sweeping Central seconds.
yes I think that I agree with you there
In cad $ the bracelet cost 610$. Do you think it's to expensive to buy it for a club campus worth 2260$. At this price, I would like to try it on before buying because I'm not starstruck on video. Great video as always 😊
That is awesome, and Nomos is a brand I'm definitely interested in but just their dials haven't sung to me yet... maybe someday my mind will change on that!
The dial is nice ... looks like a Panarei.
It is a very well made mechanical sport watch at a reasonable price point.
Its different kind of watch. Looks like a dresswatch, which want to be a a sport watch. The amount if watch for the money is impressive. I like their world timer.
Love this watch😍
It's very sharp looking with great lume, however, I'm not that keen on the bracelet. The bracelet is nicely made (145 individual parts with a deployant clasp) but doesn't suit this particular watch. If you are not getting wet it may look better on a cordovan strap or rubber (perhaps a Tropic)?
It's quite an expensive piece here in the UK (3,220 GBP) with a 3 month delivery time.
I would like to add one of the shell cordovan options in the future, but I LOVE it on the bracelet. I also suggested to the rep that Nomos should add a rubber option in the future
@@BruceWilliams ... slightly off topic I've put my MM300 on a new green TROPIC from the Synchron Store (the 1960s retro legend) and it looks fantastic. Far from cheap ($94.80 plus shipping), however, really great texture, comfort and aroma.
52 lug to lug 😔😢
IKR
For a 42mm that's too much. 48mm, and I'd be all over this watch.
I believe the Sumo is also 52mm. These curve down.
Also if you head to the as take a look at the Autobahn it's beautiful
If this comes out in 38 or 39mm I will get it for sure
Very nice watch. I'm really into German watches right now, owning a Laco and an Archimede and I'm strongly considering getting a Damasko. If I needed a nice dress watch, a Nomos Orion or Stowa Antea would be at the top of my list. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) the opportunity to wear a dress watch now that I'm retired is close to zero. Still, I think these are beautiful timepieces, are exquisitely made, and are something to be desired.
Which Damasko are you looking into Lee? I've had some expierence owning one Damasko and a couple Sinns. I've borrowed Nomos, GO, Stowa, and Laco. There are some amazing watches coming out of Germany. I would love to add more personally as well
Hi Bruce. My quivering finger is hovering over the "buy" button for white-dial DA43. Something about that stark black and white combo with A-dial Flieger design really piques my interest. I've watched your very first-ever video review about the Damasko DA47 several times and it has had a positive influence.
Have been lusting after the Damast finish DA45 myself... but unsure about the leather strap... wish they had the dark bracelet like they do the brushed model but maybe that’s saving me from spending a couple grand on another watch... for now.
under 400 overhaul charge is a game-changer to me
I'm curious why the Club sport and not the Tangente version?
great watch - lug to lug a bit challenging with over 50 mm for slimmer wrists - 48 mm would be better, however the Club is best the looking watch of Nomos' Sport Neomatik Series (compared the the Tangente Sport Neomatik - white and black dial) - this Club Sport is like the bigger brother of the Rolex Explorer (39 mm)
Not sure about those micro screws on the bracelet, can they get loose? Panerai had that Problem, after they changed their bracelets without those micro screws
The 42mm case is disappointing to me because it seemed like everyone was starting to finally decrease case diameter and then they put this out. So I think it wasnt maybe the best move for them. If they introduce this in sub 40mm case it's be great
Good vidéo
I usually enjoy your reviews and this one was no different. That is until I got to the end of your video review, where it started to feel like a commercial for the AD where you purchased your Nomos. Were you compensated in any way from this AD? Nothing wrong with that if you did, as long as you're upfront about it for the folks viewing your channel.
Nope if you are a regular viewer you'll notice I commonly suggest ADs or link site's on where to buy whichever watch is being featured. I work with a lot of stores and dealers from Mimos, to ECJLuxe to Japan-onlinestore to J Brooks and more. Nothing new and I feel my videos stand on their own merit.
shouldn't the spring be blue?
You did a SotC and this wasnt in it, did you sell it or something happen? I just recentley found this watch and am really considering it, so any other info on it would be great, cheers.
Gorgeous
Amazing review, thank you!
I also pause on the bracelet but we'll see. I want to 3D design/print a strap that'll fill the gap in the lugs. (Do I go TPU strap or nylon links?)
Isn't it pronounced "Etta?" I emailed them years back and dove into this topic, and the conclusion seemed to be that ETA is a derivative of Eterna, and there's no reason for them to capitalize the letters. The current supposed acronym of excellence, time, accuracy or whatever was made up by the advertising agency.
Nice German watch. :)
The only downer are the lugs! Not small wrist friendly it’s the only downer though
How’s the watch serving you these days?
Wish they sold bracelet separately
They do, i was at an AD locally today and they supply them. :O
I think they do
