Review: All About The NOMOS Tangente 35

For more please visit atelierdegriff...
We talk about the NOMOS Tangente, a truly iconic watch that has been offering value for money for a quarter of a century now. NOMOS is a brand that by now has a wide range of watches, including the NOMOS Metro, the NOMOS Autobahn and the ever popular NOMOS Club. However, the Tangente is the grandfather of them all, and in this review we go over the essential details that make this watch so unique indeed. Tangente Reference 139 also available of course without the display back under reference 101

Most welcome. Great seeing you here! 😄🥂

Purchased my Tangente 38 in Feb 2019 - glad l went for the clear case back and love the simple aesthetics. A keeper for sure.

[@yvelf]

Just bought the Nomos Autobahn. Tried it on and it felt very nice on my wrist. Love the look. These watches will go far in the future. I think the brand will eventually be a top contender...just wait till they do everything by hand...then Nomos will be even better

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

I doubt they will ever do everything by hand. It would kill the brand's ethos and position in the market.

[@TheGiantBunnysaid]

It's been seven months since you made your comment. How has the watch held up since then? any technical issues with daily wear?

[@drnick40]

I own the 38mm version. A beautiful watch and very easy to wear.

[@cck-ql9fp]

Best Nomos video ive seen to date, the visuals really helped me make my decision as they portray what it looks like on a wrist. Thank you!

[@degriff]

Thank you for the kind words! 🙏 glad it was useful :-)

[@vinkhuu]

Seconded, loved the 'everyday' shots on the street, super helpful for getting a feel for the watch in a more realistic setting.

[@degriff]

@@vinkhuu Thank you! Truly appreciate the kind feedback

[@Sartorial_Groot]

Great video! Love the close ups and the Degriff t shirt! Looks great on the wrist despite the 35mm size, probably due to the long lugs 😉👍

[@degriff]

Jeff Mongolian yes absolutely. 38mm would have been too big on my wrist due to that lug and dial design

[@theodorecoen2793]

not sure if you guys cares but if you guys are bored like me atm then you can stream pretty much all of the new movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my brother during the lockdown =)

[@rickykhari9987]

@Theodore Coen yup, I've been watching on instaflixxer for months myself :)

[@justin8355]

Thanks man. Your review is really helpful choosing my new watch. The movement in sapphire case back is splendid. NOMOS is definitely underrated!

[@degriff]

Welcome, and thank you for the kind feedback! If you dig the Tangente, also look into the Metro (Neomatik) a total stunner

[@MrMooseful]

Absolutely fantastic review! Looks like the display caseback is where it's at

[@degriff]

If funds permit, absolutely yes indeed 👍👍👍

[@MrMooseful]

Any idea if/when the Nomos Swing system goes to this calibre by the way?

[@jeff685]

Nice video Sir! Love Nomos and good explanations 👍

[@degriff]

Jeff thanks a lot! It’s a whole lot of value 👍

[@markroberts5507]

I own the Tangente...Its a Stunning timepiece...

[@degriff]

Timeless classic, congrats!

[@TimeandTalk]

Nice watch. Would be torn between the different sizes

[@kyproset]

Thank you for the video, after watching it, I bought the Ludwig 35. with the transparent back. My wrist is 6.5in.

[@degriff]

Awesome! Great choice, and glad to know the video was useful! 😄🙏

[@westleygreenhalf2338]

I have just ordered one of these. It's going to be a long week waiting for it to arrive.

[@degriff]

How do you like it now after a few months? :-)

[@JackHolt_Mattr]

I have thought about a Nomos - is the Tangente considered the most true to brand?

[@degriff]

Jack Holt Hey Jack! Yes it is their most Nomos Nomos 😸 I personally love their Metro most, especially the Neomatik 🔥

[@xon3E]

I know I have to try it but.. just for reference, what's the best size for a small wrist (6.25''), 35mm or 33mm? My sweet spot is about 38mm for common watches.

[@degriff]

xONE. I have a 6.5 “ in the video. I would recommend 35mm hands down. 33mm will be a tad too small for my taste but ymmv! 35mm will suit your size perfectly imho

[@xon3E]

@@degriff Yeah, that's what I thought, thank you! Such a wonderful piece.

[@GavoxWatches]

Thanks jan and great Tshirt

[@degriff]

Thanks Mike! I will happily trade you one for a Gavox one ;-)

[@Irishsilverstack]

thanks that was great

[@degriff]

Thank you for the kind feedback and for watching!

[@yiny5107]

I am an Asian with 6 inch (i.e. 15.24cm) wrist. Would you please advise me which size should I go for? a 35mm or 37.5mm tangente?? Many many thx

[@degriff]

To me that’s an easy choice. 35mm all the way! Both will fit your wrist, but the 35 will look best. Thanks for watching 🙏🥂

[@yiny5107]

​@@degriff thank you so much for your reply. I will pull the trigger now.

[@leonardocozza3140]

@@degriff same smallish wrist, can't decide between 33 and 35mm...

[@johnny_bravo9990]

Hello Mate May I know your wrist size please

[@degriff]

Yes of course. It is 16.5cm 👍

[@johnny_bravo9990]

@@degriff thanks 🙏

[@99Gimmy]

With a 15.8 should I buy a 33mm or 35mm? Noce video and fantastic images

[@madaxe]

@@99Gimmy Both would be good but it depends if you want the watch to look bigger or smaller. For me I have a 16cm wrist and prefer the 33mm.

[@rocketman3770]

weird, i've read that servicing is very expensive and comparable to Rolex. Reason being is that the parts are hard to come by. Can you please tell me what your cost was quoted?

[@degriff]

SkyM3 servicing will be considerably less than at Rolex. Not sure outside Europe but here it’d be at least 50% more affordable.. There is no way these would be more expensive to service than Rolex

[@rocketman3770]

@@degriff probably be a lot more expensive in the US.

[@degriff]

SkyM3 likely yes but no way as expensive as Rolex, Nomos is very responsive you can ask them directly for a quote

[@ocb05]

Where did you read ?

[@Geekazoid78]

so ..... um...... sea-gull, yeah its copy but....in house movement and a fraction of the price...... now the metro datum, THAT watch is drool-worthy

[@degriff]

Geekazoid78 sea-gull has nice watches for incredible prices. The Metro is my all-time favourite Nomos, especially the original one and the smaller Neomatik 🔥

[@my2l]

its not an in house movement, they just remade the eta 7001 with a threequarter plate

[@raider360]

Quite the contradiction. If they reMADE, it is still an in house movement

[@leyay7540]

Hacking is also added, which is very important to me.
