Nomos… Probably the German brand with the youngest, freshest mindset. At the time of its creation, the brand was all about Bauhaus and minimalism – and to illustrate what I mean, check out this article on the most classic of them all, the original Tangente. But quickly, Nomos added some fun and colours to its […]
If you spend any considerable time on watch-related internet sites and Instagram, you would’ve seen people obsessively trying to categorise watch brands. Whether that be by their idea of luxuriousness, prestige, or the ever-popular tier list (watch this space). My favourite version of this ranking system is the alignment chart. Originating from the ever-popular role-playing … Continued

The Tangente launched as one part of a quartet of watches designed by Susanne Günther in 1992, marking the beginnings of NOMOS Glashütte. Throughout the years, the Tangente has likely become the most recognisable NOMOS model, achieving that with the minimum amount of overt design possible. It has shifted in size and colour options, adopted … Continued

As we stated in our in-depth article, the Tangente has been instrumental in the success of German watchmaker Nomos. Inspired by the Bauhaus era and recognisable to all, the Tangente is an emblematic model that has existed in multiple forms. Small and hand-wound, as the original concept was, but also larger and automatic, or colourful […]
Some watches are so emblematic that they alone define a brand: the Omega Speedmaster, the AP Royal Oak, or the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. When I think about Nomos, my mind can’t skip it; it always returns to the Tangente. A classic among the classics, it was actually one of four watches launched at the time […]
Editor’s note: The Immortals is a new series that delves into a watch that we believe deserves recognition as a bona fide modern classic. You’ll already be familiar with most of the watches, we imagine.

Far from small, just perfectly sized, thin and still robust, this new sports watch by the Glashütte-based manufacturer ticks many boxes. So we thought it […]
It might be a tiny town in Saxony, but many wonderful things happen in Glashütte. Just months after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Roland Schwertner founded the brand Nomos and set up its workshops in Glashütte alongside some of the most revered German brands. With its trendy Berlinerblau design studio based in Berlin, Nomos […]
