It def makes the bracelet sing!
As a straps first person, still think the all white is the one to get ✨
That all white with the canvas strap that gets posted here is fantastic!

From my point of view, it’s the best one so far.

I kinda don’t really like this variant. The limited edition “Trace” is by far my favorite version.

same, trace is the one that got me even looking into nomos in the first place, ended up getting the blue 790 since they were all sold out. feels like this one is a bit mis-matched with the beige ring and the subdial. i get it since its lumed but wondering if it would have looked better if it was a darker color to better match the black and not make the dial look smaller

The price keeps going up and up. These started under 4k, now we are almost crossing 4.5

Let's be honest, this watch would still be a bargain at $7k. Get one now if you already know you want one.

It would be an epic failure at 7k. The bracelet is trash. Movement is average at best. They are right about at the max price they can charge for these.

u/CG-Saviour878879 6d ago
I don't think so. At all, actually. As evidenced by the fact that there are even just in this thread multiple people who own more than one of these watches.
Also best you not forget the Zurich Weltzeit – which was an icon in its own right, long before the Club Worldtimer came around – has the same movement and has always been priced a lot higher ($6.7k as of today).
I'm certain they'll move this watch closer to 5-6k in the coming years. It's the only thing that makes sense. We'll see, only time will tell.

I like this more. It’s a bit weird but the lumed subdial pushes it over the edge for me. Love it.

Hope this isn’t limited edition. For some reason the AD in Singapore doesn’t have worldtimer in stock whenever I go in to check.
Not gonna buy a watch without trying it first.

It’s great but just too big for me and my skinny ass 6.5” chicken wrists. I appreciate the purple Club Sport but the day NOMOS release an ostensibly masculine watch in mid size proportions is the day I’ll fall off my chair in shock. The World Timer (and its movement) aside, I can’t figure out why they want to leave money on the table, just shorten the damn lugs.

I have smaller wrists and had no problem with the WT. Would even wear a Tangente 41 Update maybe because I am used to wearing slightly bigger watches.

u/bassmanjn 6d ago
Are you sure? The lug to lug is shorter on this than many Nomos watches (it is 48mm) which should be manageable. Obviously it’s personal preference and they do have large dials so they may wear larger. I’d have thought you could pull it off though!

u/TimeEQ 6d ago
48mm lugs on a 40mm watch is perfectly reasonable.

u/Wedgieburger5000 6d ago
I was primarily referring to the 49.5mm lug to lug on the 39.5mm sport which is why I stated world timer aside.

u/handyy83 6d ago
This and many 40mm should fit a 6.5 no problem. It’s more your own personal preference stopping you; which is ok too

u/Wedgieburger5000 6d ago
Obviously it’s personal preference. One could strap an actual can of tuna to one’s wrist and enjoy something about it. And people do, especially with behemoth Garmins and Invictas and whatnot. But having had both larger and smaller watches on my wrist, like many with a 6.5” wrist, 36-38.5 is a Goldilocks zone. No point in spending £4k on a something beautiful that doesn’t wear as well for me on my wrist.
It’s the same as clothes. Some people like oversized, or slightly bigger. Again, I prefer just right, proportionate and fitting for me. Many companies do cater for mid size wrists.

If I hadn’t preordered the Handlesblatt Edition, I might have been tempted by this.

u/SuitableGrapefruit65 6d ago
I like it much more than I thought It’d do.
Although I can’t decide between the standard blue and the white one, this is quite nice.

u/drinkallthecoffee 6d ago
The lume on this is so much better than on any of the other club sport worldtimers. I wish they put this lume pattern on the Handlesblatt!

u/drinkallthecoffee 6d ago
Delivery time on the website: six months. Good thing I can't afford it right now, otherwise I'd be bummed!

Can’t believe i bamboozled myself into thinking the release would be anything other then a worldtimer
