How Does Nomos Do This? NEW Nomos Metro 33

[@BrittPearceWatches]

2:47 is for the 80's/90's kids of the Greater Toronto Area

[@seanrobinson9854]

AHHH, the Bad Boy Commercial. NoooooBodyyyyy. I remember those.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

@@seanrobinson9854 Bahaha! ONLY THE REAL ONES KNOOOOW! Those commercials were a defining part of my childhood!

[@vincentquach3839]

This, and Russell Oliver the cash man bring me back 😂

[@lamkevinp]

Haha never expected to see a Bad Boy reference in a 2024 watch review!

[@shilam]

They’ve just gone bankrupt.

[@jackburtonstwin]

I have a 7.5 inch wrist and some sweet vintage dress watches from the 1960s. I would consider 33mm perfectly wearable at my wrist size as this was a far more common size among vintage men's watches and actually looks very tasteful rather than walking around with something with all the subtly of a kitchen cabinet attached to my wrist.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

YOU KNOW, I agree COMPLETELY!

[@jackburtonstwin]

@@BrittPearceWatches It's a good size on a man's wrist. I have a 34mm Junghans Max Bill with the lovely powder blue dial. The Nomos, like the Junghans, is a watch with a huge amount of dial real estate relative to its size. In appearance I image both watches look visually more like a 36/37mm watch due to the absence of bezel to shrink the dials down.

[@Doggo-frencton]

42mm is a kitchen cabinet? There’s no way you have 7.5” wrists if that’s how you feel

[@jackburtonstwin]

@@Doggo-frencton I have multiple watches well at or over 42mm including the Squale's 2002 professional diving watch which I am wearing right now and sits comfortably on wrist so your assertion is mistaken. I am aware of my own wrist size, as any watch fan is. This does not negate my opinion that the smaller, mid-30s watches look good on the wrist, sit well and traverse cuff without issue or distortion to clothing.

[@garyboyle695]

A 33mm watch on a 7.5 inch wrist is going to look like a child's watch. My wrist is the same size and a 38.5mm watch looks too small.

[@Sophies-watch-world]

As an itty bitty wrist committee member I thank you for this review. Nomos are just winning with this one. I’m a female Watch collector and I don’t own a watch with diamonds (yet 😂). I always sigh when I see a lazy design aimed more for a female audience. This is so considered and purposeful. Well done Nomos 🎉

[@Code_name_moe]

I just recently (like last month) started getting into wrist watches, and I gotta say that your channel is my favorite. Your positive energy in each video is contagious. Also, Nomos is my favorite brand too. I got their new classic club and I think it’s an amazing watch. Now I’m trying to find their special edition Ludwig Westphalia in 35mm. Thanks again for the fun content, Britt.

[@tylerjames646]

your love for Nomos is infectious. I hadn't really considered buying one before but the more you talk about them, the more I want one lol.

[@Casa1000]

Consider yourself influenced

[@adityasanthanam1945]

As a fan of dress watches (especially vintage ones), I quite like this. The Metro and the Orion are some of my favorite Nomos watches. What a brand, in the capital of German watchmaking, an independent company with most of its work done in-house. The movement looks great, too. I may be a male consumer with a medium-sized wrist, but I like small watches, and I agree that there is a lack of such watches in the market today. Also, there is no need to be too concise. Say everything you want to say. The videos are enjoyable and do not feel too long.

[@jobervelasco8614]

What a delightful wonderfully small watch. Love this "quickfire" video Britt! Lol. I'm glad we actually have ADs here in Los Angeles that carry Nomos. I definitely want to see how this looks on my wrist. I don't mind smaller watches.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Jober is freaking HERE! Hahaha ahhh I am so glad you enjoyed!!!

[@jobervelasco8614]

@@BrittPearceWatches there is one thing we don't have in LA. We don't have a Swatch Boutique. So I can't get the next overpriced plastic fantastic Swatch collab watch, lol

[@OscarOSullivan]

Looks right up my street

[@duybankai]

I got the Metro Neomatik 35 last year. Love it!

[@mesteme]

Love Nomos, but I wish they added more layers on their dials - it would not have to go against Bauhaus principles, like they did on the small seconds they can raise or lower the minute track or sandwich markers or do something to make the face a little more intricate instead of leaving all the fun on the backside.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Ouuu now this is a really cool thought!!

[@TerribleUsernameAmirite]

The Autobahn does it a little bit with a concave dial. I love staring at mine.

[@TeslasSecret]

@@TerribleUsernameAmirite Now that’s a rarely seen watch. Love how it looks, way too big for me though sadly.

[@CarlosGallardoCandia]

Agree! That silver one is gorgeous. This whole Metro 33 collection is amazing! I'm trying to get my wife into the hobby, but she's not a watch person. The only watch she's seen that she liked was a freakin' "A. Lange and Sohne Saxonia 380.033", haha... too big for her to wear (oh, and it's expensive for what I was told 🤣) Let's hope this Nomos dethrones the Lange!

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Ahhh I'm so glad I'm not the only Silver lover! ;) I just love it! As for your wife's watch tastes... LOLLLL! SHE'S GOT EXPENSIVE TASTES!!! ;)

[@philspencelayh5464]

Probably the nicest Nomos I've seen, I agree about the lugs the proportions are so much better. I normally wear up to 42mm but I have a vintage Accurist 34mm and 8mm thick, like the Nomos a very slim bezel so the watch doesn't look that small.

[@WatchesnguitarsDK]

No need to rush anything. You are doing great with the good old format 👍

[@freebrotherlee]

I dunno, Britt. I think 8.5 mins is plenty short for a quick review, and some interesting bits about a brand. Being more concise might just feel rushed. Just do your thing! We're here for it 👍 Also, Nomos was my first big love when I got into watches heavily 6 years ago; I bought the Topper Edition Weltzeit, and an Orion. I agree with your sentiments entirely and only love them more as they grow.

[@Nomosglashuette_official]

Many thanks for this great review of Metro 33!

[@HanLien]

my wife bought me a Ludwig back in 2013, it's my one and only "fancy watch". I absolutely love it till this day. it has been 11 years and still performs phenomenally. Interestingly that my Ludwig has a open casing back, which I don't see it on the website anymore. :)

[@chriscon8463]

When I heard that “Noooobody!” Bad-Boy Furniture ad, I totally had a flashback to the early ‘90s! I live in Erie, PA, and I used to watch Channel 10 on my rabbit ears from across the lake. Thanks, Britt!

[@jameslloyd-wyatt]

You have really stepped up the editing and post production on this Britt! Hats off!!!

[@syktgrei]

This looks SO good! The pink is perfect with your sweater. And that green one is amazing with his pink pants. Great styling, Britt!

[@Harry-tb8yo]

Nomos is such a great brand! I found a Tetra Ode to Joy with display caseback for a bit over 1.4k just five weeks ago and couldn't resist. It is my first watch with a hand wind movement since my childhood so I have to get used to winding it every day. But the build quality, the laid back approach with the color and the grey / green suede strap are just gorgeous. And of course the possibility to have a look at this great movement is really enjoyable. These colorful Metro look really nice! My favourite is the red one but there is another red one on my radar which I feel tempted to since 15 years and this year I want to finally get it.

[@AndreaDoesYoga]

Love the Nomos Metro 33, perfect for small wrists! 🙌

[@DrFernandoHidalgo]

Gringa Friday 🎉 Love the Sage Green, but I would immediately change the strap 😅, that’s just me hehe. Hope you have a wonderful weekend B 👍🏻.

I just recently dipped my toe in the Nomos pool. Was shoppig for my wife for anniversery gift (#24 on 1/8/24!) and en route to finding her a Cartier Panthere with diamond set bezel, I walked out with a the midnight blue dial Zurich World Time. It's a great watch, and I would be surprised if I end up with more from this brand. So many watches, so little time! Cheers!

[@YoRHa_2E]

Britt, you absolutely smashed the 4 minute mark! Almost double, what a champ 😀 Regarding the watch, I'm male with smaller wrists and think the sage and silver models look lovely, I'd be keen to try them on

[@LiamGCErskine]

I used to live in Scarborough, 2011-2014. I also drove through your hometown on the way to Algonquin park and stopped for coffee once or twice. We may have passed each other at some point

Nomos and Junghans are some of my favorite German brands. Love these designs

[@martinkaplan1805]

I hope my wife loves the colorway choices. I’d love to get this for her!

[@evilganome]

I have 2 Nomos watches, a Club Campus 36 and a Tetra. I would, with a 7.5 wrist not hesitate to get one of these beauties. I have some vintage watches that are around 34mm or slightly smaller and have really come to love the look of smaller watches. Anyway, a new watch to put on my wish list!

[@Mirhan123]

AFTER finally BUYING my ROLEX OP ( hopefully😀😅) I will definitely buy THESE NOMOS watches but the only PROBLEM I feel is that these watches LOOK KINDA GIRLY!😅, i really like those DECENT colors on the dials and THAT MINIMALISTIC DESIGN! The colors on these watches are just so COOL and AWESOME! BUT! they don't look that MANLY😅, THEY are just too GIRLY! I am only nervous about people saying "is that a women's watch??'' I DONT KNOW! But I really like that red or I may call it BERRY color dial😅thanks for the AMAZING video WATCH GRINGA!

[@hywong8449]

As a fellow small-wristed Nomos lover, I definitely recommend looking for a good alternative 16mm strap. The velour/suede-ish strap gets dirty-looking pretty quickly.

[@j.j.h.atemycereal]

It’s not that my 7.75” wrist is too large for these, it’s that my 59 year old eye sight couldn’t read those tiny sub seconds dials without a magnifying glass. But these are so cool. Thanks!

Great Video. I have 2 watches from Lange & Söhne. But The Next One will be a NOMOS.

[@joshmosher6986]

I bought a Nomos Tangante last year in Munich and it is my favorite watch, even as a daily. The dynamic range of dress watches for men just don’t get their due. Everything Nomos executes in their product from the simplicity and exquisite design is an art form. Love your videos but ain’t no way you’re hitting 4 minutes!

[@davidbellamy1403]

I have a 17cm wrist and I wear both a Tangente 35mm and a vintage Omega that is 33.5 mm and it doesn't bother me a bit. They're great looking, well made watches which is what matters to me.

[@watchesandburgers]

Love ya, Britt. Just keep doing what you're doing.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Whaaat! This has absolutely made my day!

[@MagnaxVingtTrois]

Such a beautiful watch. Especially with the sage/green dial.

[@austinzizzi1142]

That sage is a winner

[@wonderingatom8203]

I have the original Club with the same Alpha movement. Winding it everyday is so satisfying. If you want a Nomos, buy it now, they are appreciating in price like crazy. I picked up my Club brand new for £900 at the end of 2022. I think they now RRP for £1300.

[@MrAndy76101]

You made him wear the pink velour or he's just leaning into 33mm 😂 The muted red and case back are beautiful

[@heyjoethomas]

I’d absolutely rock these

[@hunterphan5506]

Thank you for this review. I’ve been eyeing this for awhile, along with the Tetra 33mm and the Ahoi 36mm. Nomos rocks!

[@waterfordrs22]

That’s cool, well done. I’ve got a friend with larger wrists than mine, which are 7.5”, he collects vintage dress watches, they all wear well and look great on him. I’ve steadily refined my sense of taste, I mean, why collect otherwise? My daily is a Railmaster at 40mm, I consider that a large watch, which it is. Outside of work, I wear an A385 El Primero and a Grand Seiko SBGW269, both 37mm. They wear very well, super comfy, I wouldn’t call them small watches, more like a medium by today’s standard. This Nomos is a small watch, but if you wear it with confidence and dress for it, a lot of people with large wrists will have no issue. These are mostly concerns for social media to fuss over, the real world, less so.

[@salty5402]

Good outside the norm sizing, bold and fun colors, and all from a German Brand with a proven/famed in-house movement? What's not to like?!? Big question - how do you feel the Nomos infamous long lugs for this model wears on your wrist? You mention them, but don't think you elaborated your perspective.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Ahhh ok! Good question Salty! I think the long lugs definitely make it wear larger. Usually 33mm would be a size I'd think is too small for me. I don't really like going under 34mm. But with the lugs and the way they wrap around the wrist - it makes it wear that little bit larger. Even James said he doesn't think it's too small on him! He quite likes the sizing, and credits that a lot to the lugs! :) (But he is also quite happy to wear a smaller watch!)

[@ignaciopadilla5150]

Really good looking lady watches or anyone who enjoys a Small case watch. I really like the beet color dial.

[@jimdrogo1360]

I like so much that they are going on those vintage sizes. I have to try this one !

[@zenebeu]

dunno why the 4 minutes, maybe the algorithm deities ask that, but i,d watch like 20 minutes of this no problem. Keep it up Britt!

[@renedelapaans647]

Astonishing it is to see so many skilled watch companies gathered together in one small village … from Glashütte Nomos to Glashütte original, Glashütte Union and a few others and of course above all A. Lange und Söhne. Not only the Swiss knows how to make watches

[@magdieus]

As a vegan member of the itty-bitty wrist committee this is stunning! They are rarely mechanical and often the watch might have a non leather strap but they dump MOP on the dial. I love some of the Dior grand bal with the front counter weights but the only versions of those without feathers, leather, or mother of pearl are way out of my price range with a gazillion diamonds.

[@b_altmann]

You don’t have to rush the video - or is there a particular reason? I think everyone will be happy to make time for your videos as before :) The proportions of this Nomos are much better in terms of lugs and the sage green is nice. But at £2k it’s twice the price of the Junghans Max Bill 34mm hand wound version. After all they make the original of the minimalist style, so it would be Junghans for me.

[@markpiper6249]

I’ve got a ruff tuff 6.5 inch wrist and not sure if these watches will stand up to my everyday use in the woods. Look good on you though Britt !! 😎

33's a great dress watch size for any wrist size. 33-37 is the perfect size for a dress watch. 39 max ONLY IF the lugs hug the wrist and are short.

I have a silver dialed Tangente and with the way the galvanized silver adds hints of reflection you wouldn't see on a 'normal' white dial, I'd never call your preference for the silver dial Metro "boring." Now the black Studio Underd0g Series 2 on the other hand . . .

[@BryanO92]

My persnoal favorite Nomos is the Metro 1108, which I haven't seen reviewed before, you only see Clubs and Tangentes.

[@chrisgrieves1468]

Lovely presentation, Britt, and a lovely watch. With almost no bezel it looks bigger and real men wore plenty of 34s back in the day. I have a 16cm (6.3") wrist and with experience I can say a 35mm Tangente wears perfect and I'd wear this for sure. I do object to how much Nomos charges extra for display case backs however. That really IS 'taking the p^^s".

[@spex7503]

For a while there it looked like your husband's wrist size was going to blow out past 8", glad to see it's coming back under control.

[@dunderhay9169]

Forget the timer, we like a bit of waffle 👍. That Nomos looks great on you and I think they should use those lugs on the men's watches, the standard lugs are the only thing I don't like about their watches. These are so much nicer than the bubble dial Rolex.

[@jamesminshall4601]

I really love Nomos but they are too elegant for me, I don’t think you can gush too much about them. As much as I like Nomos, I feel the rest off the range has just taken a step into the shade. These new Metro's are probably the most well resolved watch they make. Wow

[@thedaveaftertomorrow]

what mm is your perfect size on your wrist?

[@BrittPearceWatches]

GAH! Now THIS is such a loaded question!! So... For a dress watch.. 34mm-36mm. For a sporty watch 36mm-39mm. It all depends on lugs and that stuff too! But those are my preferred size ranges! (She says wearing the GMT Master 2 which is 40mm, so... I guess I'm not too picky on sizing hehe!)

Originally Peseux 7001, then ETA, and then Nomos took the movement architecture to wholly make everything in-house. So the blueprint existed for many decades, but Nomos made it their own with their own hairspring and complete manufacturing.
