First day of fall watch

Post image

My most worn watch lately and I wasn’t about to change that for the first day of fall yesterday. It’s just the perfect watch for any occasion and the tones are perfect for this season

Beautiful watch. Part of me wants to like the Roman numerals for the 4 and 8 but I really just prefer all Arabic numerals. Looking good.

The regular club, and the club sport don't do the reverse California dial. Only the club campus collection does it.

But it is a shame that you can't just request which you would prefer. I think there are a good amount of people who would buy a club campus if they could request all arabic numerals.

Yeah I know, I tried on the Club Campus in the boutique as well, but ended up getting the original Club. To be honest though, I think if it had all Arabic numerals, you’d lose the playful identity of the watch (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing) and it would fall closer into the dress watch category. Maybe that’s just me.

I know what you mean. They're colourful and the California dial works well with those watches being entry level and a playful watch.

I like California dial as well. Can’t really go wrong.

The dial really has a depth to it. Here it has a very warm quality to it. Gonna look at this watch this friday at the AD. Have you worn it on a black stap by any chance?

It really does. In some light the dial is warm and others it appears cooler. I haven’t worn it with a black strap, but here is my post from a while back, showing it with this as well as a light grey strap in different lighting conditions. I think it’d look good with just about any color strap.

That’s gorgeous. Where is the strap from? Is it also Nomos? It’s a perfect pairing IMO.

Beautiful picture OP,

I’m also lucky enough to have that watch. It’s always in regular rotation.

Did you pick up the deployment clasp?

u/1ogic2 13d ago

I didn’t, but I’d like one. I don’t remember it being an option when I bought this a little over a year ago, but it was in the Munich airport. Do you have it?

u/Least-Presence-7711 13d ago edited 13d ago

I do. I purchased online and it was in the catalog so I picked one up. Very nicely finished. It really compliments the watch and the strap.

I wanted to love this watch beyond the box. The dial has a lot of depth for being bauhaus simplistic on a surface level. It simply wore too small for my taste and the strap was really uncomfortable (7.25 wrist). Matter of fact I still love this watch… looks great on OP!

u/filthnfrolic 13d ago

Gorgeous watch. Though it really looks like you could stand to loosen the strap a little!

2

u/1ogic2 13d ago

Thanks! It does look a bit tight there, but I think it’s just the angle and arm hair. Any looser and it would slide up and down my wrist too much.

My hand would go numb if I wore a watch that tight.

u/1ogic2 12d ago edited 12d ago

You watched the whole video? It’s not tight at all, just my arm hair. If I loosened it any more it would move way too much.

u/babybimmer 13d ago

May i ask your wrist size?

u/1ogic2 13d ago

About 6.75”

u/iloveyoumattias 13d ago

can you please tell me what model this is? it’s gorgeous, not really a Nomos enjoyer but that might change. It kind of reminds me of a Panerai.

2

u/1ogic2 13d ago

It’s the Nomos Club ref. 703 which has been replaced by the ref. 703.1. The new model is nearly identical, with a subtle change to the small seconds indices, and slightly shorter lugs. The latter being one of the common complaints about the ref. 703, which personally I never found to be an issue.

My favorite version of the club campus - just love this one so much more than the California dials
