Real Affordable Mechanical GMT - the Nodus Sector GMT

[@d7r_tv]

Sector dials really make ANY watch look another level. Lovely piece this Nodus.

[@alanmckinnon6791]

I'm so glad you reviewed these watches, I had never heard of them, and I'm impressed

[@ozmondos]

Nezumi is also releasing two GMT watches using the new Seiko 5 GMT movement. They look amazing as well!

[@YoureTerrific]

Awesome

[@davedesandro]

Re: "outward" brushing on bezel - In graphic design, that treatment is called 'conical', like a cone. For example, a conical gradient.

[@davidkarp4593]

I have the gray dial version. I love it. The bracelets from the other current Sector series for the watch and also look great. The leather strap is super nice.

[@NicholasCFranklin]

100k coming soon. You're killing it. Not a rolex rolex rolex shill like most just chasing clicks. Real freaking watch impressions with personality and reality in mind.

[@mracekproductions]

Always liked what Nodus are doing. Thankyou for your internet opinions

[@kk-ec9rt]

Your humour does add to your videos a lot! Huge fan:)

[@zeiss72]

I’m glad that Nodus is getting some attention. They do make a very good value quality watch for a micro brand.

[@AElzelingen]

Your shirt is stealing the show for me 🔥

[@aubsta1]

I have the Nodus sector field Marina. Elegant, sporty, and irresistible

[@roycedot]

Looks like they drew a lot of inspiration for the turquoise dial from Farer. Seems like a lot of watch for the price. Some syringe hands would have been a good touch for my taste.

[@Dialandhands]

Your video made me pull the trigger on the Metro. The video quality and everything captures it much better than others. I was a little hesitant because of the blue accents but in this video it looks super subtle.

[@BasedHadrian]

The dials are stunning. I may get one of these instead of the SSK001 since I already have the 009

[@marvinberwart]

Don't be bitter please. I don't give a flying fly about your wrist size or unsolicited advice, you just happen to make very entertaining and well put together videos on a subject that I love, and you are definitly amongst the best at it. To me.

[@Nefville]

Somehow I feel like it took inspiration from Hermes. I'll be more interested to see the Miyota 9075 get into more watches, I just like the movement in terms of function, beat rate and thinness but this is definitely the nicest *XX34 I've seen.

[@darcy_fm]

The shade in the intro! Have fun tumbling down that affordable watch rabbit hole.

[@matthewwatt3650]

Great review mate as usual with a few LOLs thrown in. Thanks for shouting out Australia. Cheers Matt😊

[@nedflanders3769]

Super nice looking watch. Great specs for the cash. And you’re very funny!

[@NeoWahNah]

Never heard of or seen this brand/watch before. It looks very good! Thank you for sharing!

[@timetowatch_francois]

Indeed; that dark blue version is a "looker"! The brown strap suites it perfectly ... and yeah, "... on the slippery, dangerous slope of watch collecting". You got THAT right! 😉 Thanks for sharing!

[@blaketaylor9317]

The Walter Shoback quote earned you a new fan today... 👍

[@YoureTerrific]

It really tied the video together.

[@backpackerx]

I love that you called me "little buddy". In my mind you tousled my hair.

[@mikeraiche5063]

I recently purchased the blue dial Sector GMT and love it. This watch would be worth it at double the $475 price!

[@BennettIsAmazing]

I'm saving up for my second 'serious' watch - probably the GS SBGM221, and pair it with a grey suede strap much as you did - but perhaps I'll divert a bit of that saving pot into the blue dial of one of these. They look really nice (although in theory I prefer the traveller style gmt).

[@turnbasedtoddy7664]

When when you called me little buddy, I took that personally

[@shermanpeh21]

You should check out the Traska Venturer GMT. I thought that the Miyota 9075 is the answer for a traveller GMT.

[@jroobz]

i reallllllllly like this watch. when they do one with a GMT bezel, I am sold

[@conradcoolerfiend]

isnt concentric brushing when the brush strokes are parallel to the circumference, and radial brushing when the brush strokes are perpendicular to it (shooting out from the centre)?

[@brennariley228]

I think it's also called sunburst. 😊

[@cantbreakdance2849]

Nice watch... If it had a bracelet and a quick adjust clasp this would be an insta buy for me

[@Joacimbylehn]

With the WR of 100 meters, adding a rubber like the one in the video seems like a no-brainer, great do anything watch.

[@megasoid]

I own the grey dial Metro version, great watch for the money. My first GMT piece.

[@jollyrob]

I would love a 40-41mm version of these. I have an 8" wrist, sorry.

[@LaurentiusTriarius]

From becoming an adult in the 1990's I'm often flabbergasted by 38 watches being qualified of small, my favorite watches are the 35 to 38 thin ones and I have a 7+ wrist. No it doesn't look goofy, 40 mm + on weed wacker arms do look stupid tho

[@willf.5403]

😂 lollll “little buddy”. Great video - looking to try a gmt.

[@leokal457]

Really reminds me of the Patek 6000!

[@JogieGlenMait16]

Skydweller vibes going on? Nice.

[@thedaveaftertomorrow]

How big (or small) do you think the gap is between this and the Monta Atlas in terms of quality and watch-ness…

[@piotrd.9848]

Is the gray one still available?

[@pilotwjf]

I'm liking the (gray scale) one.

[@Dialandhands]

Me too! This is the only video I’ve seen that shows off both colorways.

[@wingeren]

Funny, a friend of mine is looking for a first mechanical timepiece and yeah, this might be it. Indeed it might.

[@YoureTerrific]

Perfect

[@B2359]

Hey - what watch meet-up in Portland ? Love to attend one of them ?

[@LandonBrainard]

Hey how did you get into a watch meetup? I'm in/around Portland and I'd love to participate

[@777soul56]

Hey I'm in Portland area what are some watch meet ups to check out. I haven't really gone to any meetups before. I'm waiting on the Sector deep rn. Love to bring it along with some other to meet up.

[@thegirthquake8574]

So, silly question. I've bitched on your channel before about small watches and my 8" wrist. I was wondering if the 47mm Lug to Lug is too small (or pushing it) for 8 inches.

[@YoureTerrific]

Really depends on your style. You probably want more like a 50mm length.

[@fbjuubg5882]

No watch is too small, but watch can be too large. I have 6.5 wrist and I wear 32mm to 45mm，all works

[@wristroll_vlad]

Fantastic proportions, better than SSK’s

[@YoureTerrific]

That’s for sure

[@wisamal-hakim5531]

These are pretty. Both versions are really nice. But I don’t really like the semi circle colour difference. I get it serves a purpose but I’d rather it wasn’t there. And the lugs could be a fraction shorter. That aside, for the price, these are great value indeed. Have you seen the lander IV from Farer? Similar to the Nodus but with a sellita movement. Also really pretty

[@sage9743]

Saw those. Different price range.

[@Stanjara]

Wait, so you are telling me that you've measured your wrist? Finally!!! So... what's the size? Maybe you should put a quarter or a dollar bill next to a watch... or a Seiko... or something that is recognizable. But seriously you does best reviews on YTubz.

[@YoureTerrific]

Thanks

[@hulkingmass]

Please do the Haven Chilton!!

[@Dialandhands]

Pretty sure this video made the metro gray model sell out🤣 This is the first video to really show off both color ways and has made me commit to buying a metro and a beads of rice bracelet when they restock.

[@mandomi550]

Although they look beautiful, the GMT function is close to useless because there are no odd 24-hr indicators, and from 10:00am to 2:00pm (second time zone) you can't tell what time it is. So these become fashion-watch like in nature.

[@jamespalsson746]

Don't think it matter that they regulate the NH34, won't it become inaccurate in a couple of months anyways?

[@Judah.Rosenthal]

Radial. Or sunburst brushing.

[@TheeYellowDart]

I love this watch, but the 47mm lug length is a little long for me.

[@Chris-de2qc]

What did you want instead? 45?

[@geoffhamby9384]

"little buddy" ☠💀💀🤣😂

[@vacayshawn]

Great video ... little buddy

[@stavros_katsopr]

Nodus Sector, meh / Nodus Sector GMT, yep. Fast as the wrong upload last week... 😉 PS The brush is (maybe) called centrifugal, i guess, could be... you know... right?

[@watch_drives_you]

I really love what Nodus has done with this ones... especially the greenish one looks fantastic! By the way... where did you get that bund strap? Looks good on your 8" wrist 👍

[@YoureTerrific]

Greenish? Uh-oh. You might need a new screen or new eyes.

[@watch_drives_you]

@@YoureTerrific doesn't it have a green hue to it? Come on... I can't be wrong, it's the internet!

[@johnmonachelli5256]

Perfect for philly or Portland if you get mugged you won't lose your shirt

[@noeldavis618]

Weird. I'd say the tops of the lugs are brushed concentrically, as in each arc of brushing has the same center point. Weirdly, a quick google image search of "radial brushing" shows this concentric pattern, as you describe on the tops of the lugs. Yet, an image search of "radial lines" shows the pattern on the bezel, which I would describe as radially brushed, as in each brush stroke follows a radius of the circle. Go figure...

[@YoureTerrific]

Hence my confusion

[@diegogalbarriatu447]

What does the inner ring indicate?

[@KeepingWatchUK]

The 2nd time (GMT hand)

[@diegogalbarriatu447]

​@@KeepingWatchUK I still dont understand why at 1 there is a 2, at 2 there is a 4 and so on

[@KeepingWatchUK]

@@diegogalbarriatu447 it allows the GMT hand to indicate a second time zone across 24hour period within one rotation. Might be best reading up on how GMT watches work.

[@finesse49]

Can the movement be adjusted in only 1 hour increments? If so this watch is not useful for tracking time in India, a part of Australia, Venezuela, Newfoundland and a number of other place with off-hour time zones. A non-click internal bezel would solve the issue.

[@Stanjara]

OMG! You are not real!

[@fbjuubg5882]

Like the dial, gmt hand, case. hour and minute hand not so much

[@woozertoo]

Hello fellow watch nerds--Nodus me, and please please please like, comment and subscribe.

[@daniallau4717]

I own the sector phantom pilot and I'm my opinion is better then the GMT in terms of its looks.

[@timefliesby-jleo474]

Wait I missed it…. Or maybe I skipped pass it I dunno, did you mention your wrist size? 😂😂😂

[@YoureTerrific]

If I knew, I’d tell you.

[@GCPlati85]

Pitchforks!

[@Post_Leako]

I don't understand how Nodus can make a GMT that's so small and thin using Seiko's movement, but Seiko can't.

[@JasonAndrescavage]

Those watches are gorgeous... but those hour and minute hands are stupid and I hate them. I guess the upside it there's about a million replacements to be had since it's rocking the Seiko movement.

[@UltraDoug]

Deja Vu? 😳

[@Anonymous-yb1ho]

Nooo not my wallet, don’t do it. All jokes aside, this may scratch my GMT itch. I’ve been putting off my next watch purchase off for a while, was going to pull a trigger on a Christopher ward but decided not too, but I feel at this price, it’s really a bargain. After this I promise I’ll save up for an Omega Seamaster 300.

[@tapirdeaalex7104]

Its pretty nice, but I really dont like the hands

[@DisplayKeesBack]

Sometimes "yes" says as much as a nodus.

[@Caxel108]

Nodus dials are so beautiful but their lugs are too long and make the watch ugly

[@dant.6364]

“Nodus” lol

Despite the handicap…. 😂😂😂😂

"It's a shiter!" Get the fike outahere!

Hands are ugly. The hands ruin whole watch.

[@YoureTerrific]

I think I have nice hands.

[@WparuSlowach]

@@YoureTerrific Let’s agree here. ;) I meant the watch hands are terrible. This is one of watch DNA. That’s why currently we have only 5 very good microbrands. 10 are good. Rest is repetitive. Don’t want be offensive, is my opinion.

[@AllTheTimeInTheWorld]

My girlfriend and I want to but matching watches and ideally a somewhat elegant and not overly sporty GMT because we live in different timezones. It seems like the Nodus is a hot contender now.
