To us, NOMOS is the pinnacle of a happy go lucky brand, and to a degree, that's exactly what they are. However, if we left our entire impression at just that -- we'd be missing some of the richest history in the world of watch making. We'd be ignoring the fall and rise of Glashütte, a ferocious independent spirit, and frankly, some of the nicest people you could ever hope to meet.

You and Michael are great story tellers. Thanks for sharing it.

[@bladem.d6029]

Really appreciate your ability to convey your love of horology, and expand it to those of us joining you on the adventure! 🍻🍻🍻

[@olivierorban787]

Again and again great story teller, and in that story of Glasshute, that’s why I’m proud to wear my Nomos Club every day Love my Nomos

[@corysekine-pettite1783]

Big fan of Nomos designs. I've had my eye on a particular model that I've yet to purchase, but I will someday. Also, I've been Dresden and other cities in the eastern part of Germany. I'm kicking myself for not knowing then that it was a world-class watchmaking area.

[@aapeaape]

A great combination of film-making, storytelling, and brand building. Kudos. Nomos just went up many places on my watch brand ranking list. Keep up the great work 🙏

[@user-vc1xn4zy2z]

WOW! Great production. You guys killed it with this one! I really want to add a Nomos to my collection now, and not only that...I'd love to visit there as well! Bravo! 🙂

[@canadianwatchmonkey3992]

❤ Thank you for this ❤ I love learning about the back story of brands. I am a huge fan of Nomos, I currently own a club date and a Orion both are fantastic. 😊😊😊

[@CanadianHodler]

Wow! That was incredible. Gave me goosebumps. Safe to say I’ll be wearing my Club Campus for the next week straight!

[@Rosay__]

Wow - what a great story here. I don’t think many realize just how much history there is behind Nomos.

[@AnthonySmith-sc4zs]

Good grief! What an excellent short documentary. It’s emotional and beautiful, but also shed light onto the history of Nomos that I had no clue about.

[@warusk2nd]

Incredible cinematography and story. I love my Nomos watches and I love to hear the history and background of the maker and the region!

[@Adskie]

That was a hell of a branding video. You don’t necessarily go out and buy a watch right away but you appreciate and develop a relationship with the brand that you never would have without seeing it.

[@echospage]

Amazing job Michael & Christian!

[@witte2702]

Well done both of you. Great Production. Makes me want a Nomos

[@justinli9484]

same!

[@robertschmidt9584]

Really great quality video. I know it’s more about the story than the technical explanation, but would have liked to known more about their swing system!

[@natedogg9338]

This is an amazing video. Kudos to Christian and team for this. I’ve owned Nomos but don’t have one in my collection now, but I’m going to look online to see what I’d like to add next. Bravo.

[@notenoughtime7274]

Great job. Love the story telling and production. Makes me want to visit there! What separates the origins of Nomos and Glashutte Original ?

[@oneal14attnet]

Bravo! This is what makes watch collecting fun. The stories. Well told! Well done!

[@VMIyanks04]

I love these special videos you all make! So well done and totally makes me want to buy a Nomos! Kudos to Nomos for staying independent!

[@prnuvsharma55]

This is incredible content. The tone, the story, and the cinematography are top notch!

[@stephenbaluran3298]

This is a great production. I love how you turned the story of Nomos, its technology, and its relationship with Glashutte into a documentary that's not even 10 minutes long. What a lovely tribute to a great company. Now I have to check out Nomos.

[@shaheerrahman87]

Was always a fan of Nomos design, now I'm a fan of Nomos.

[@lucasgonzalez1298]

Okay fine, I’ll buy another Nomos

[@sebastien6483]

Such a beautiful and enriching presentation. I'm happy to have all this context as a fan of the brands that call Glashutte home.

[@TheFabFoe]

Great production, amazing. Thank you for sharing that beautiful journey with us. Next time also stop at A.Lange & Söhne

Very good video. Well done!

Loved the way you told the story, I’m a huge fan of Nomos, I have 2, white face Orion datum 39 and purple/blue club campus 36 - quality is amazing and wearability is spot on under the cuff for work

[@emmetteal8027]

Extremely Well Done Guys!

[@flemmingsorensen5470]

Great video of a brand I truely have come to admire.

[@Lior_Dv]

Love Nomos and own two myself. One day I hope to own a Lambda - Hopefully they'd release smaller sized than 39mm :)

[@aaronshapiroedc]

I just left Glashutte myself. With a new Nomos on my wrist. Great video!

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

Incredible production guys 👏 ❤

[@giovannif.7758]

Bravo…good work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@scotty2hotty159]

All the Nomos in my collection are precious, beautiful watches, precise, robust and exuding soulful design. They represent sonething very special and sincere about German watches. They are quite simply the best value watch manufacture in the world.

[@chubbymonkey6604]

Great storytelling of a wonderful brand. I fully intend to be a Nomos owner soon.

[@razfan]

Great video ❤

[@johyscorner]

This is beyond spectacular

[@ChevyBM]

We sell Nomos at the store that I work in and as a watchmaker I can say that Nomos is something really special, they produce really well made watches and have an interesting Bauhaus design that is both contemporary and modern and the quality and finish of the watches are better than on other brands that cost several times more. I really recommend these watches, and there is also such a wide variety of watches from Nomos! Thou the biggest obstacle for Nomos is that the simple design does not work for everybody and sometimes I feel that only watch-geeks are buying them, they should produce something that is more main-stream but then again that may make them to loose their identity. Thanks for the nice video!

[@0609isabella]

Well done my friend.

[@Argassin]

Brilliant 👏

[@niclasgraetz4232]

[@LEIF_10119]

great brand, great video. very nice 🤩

[@JasonFerguson17t]

Great video, my collection is mostly German and I think a Nomos is next...

[@UltraDoug]

The first watch that captured my imagination. The first mechanical watch I owned. The only watch brand that I go back to again and again ……is N O M O S. Brilliant video for a brilliant, truly original company.

[@stavros_katsopr]

Your avatar pic says so much about it... 😉

[@yojimbo21]

Brilliant. If I didn’t already own a couple, I’d run out and buy one.

That was a holy trinity production....others were rolex at best....

[@wayneonthedrums]

Love it! Oh, and whilst they're both gorgeous I like Christians favourite.. Hovering over the add to basket button now.

[@DutchBulldog]

Great video! But it hurts my ears to hear a German name Switzerland as the next place of watchmaking after Glashütte. What about Pforzheim? This city in western Germany is home to many great watch brands, including Laco, Stowa, Archimede, Ickler, Circula and Defakto. Not to forget Hanhart and Junghans which are located nearby in the Black Forest region.

[@PROWATCHES]

Nice color grading. Will be interesting to see if they're ever able to make the entire swing system themselves. They make everything except the balance spring

[@notyourdaddy8300]

So what the heck is the swing system then?

[@flemmingsorensen5470]

Check their website....

[@notyourdaddy8300]

"This is a film"? Aren't you reaching just a wee bit there, with a 9:50 video?

[@petrnovak8143]

As much as I appriciate Nomos and really like their watches, I can't get over the titel of the story. It seemed to me as if you were pushing Nomos to be "the guardian of Glashütte" wich seems just very overrated with respect to the other brands. There are more great brands in Glashütte and regardless of their independence or being a part of a greater group, they are also significant for the region and for german horology.

[@TheFatclassic]

[@mrvolkoff]

It may be a bit foolish, but I have an issue with Glashütte and all the brands located there. The watches are great, that is wihtout a question. But the issue is that a lot of people living in small saxonian towns, or even Dresden do support a (extremly) right political party afd. I don't want to go into detail about the party (whoever is interested can google about it) but I'm not giving my money to nazis no matter how good the watches are.
