@@stevenrichardson4928 That’s correct. A partner for years is Doctors Without Borders. Together with them, we created a few special editions and with each purchase, donations for the Nobel Prize-winning organization are raised. Further, we support the Business Council for Democracy (BC4D), but above all locally: Financial support, with which we would like to appreciate the commitment of all volunteers, was provided to various organizations from all Glashütte districts, various sports clubs and the civil courage campaign in Pirna (Saxony), for example
I feel you. There are times I'm more interested im watches, than others. Sometimes these phases can go for a few months. Now I still wear my watches, but am not getting super hyped about anything watch related. And than I'm suddenly all over this topic again 😅 Also I'm more interested in japanese and german watches, than swiss ones.. don't know why
What a special video !! Love the tabac dial, really nice 🤩 And what a special personal message, and yes we all go through these type of moments/periods. Absolutely great to see you getting that feeling back for the love of watches 😍 Your channel really is one of the better ones out there 💪🏻🥳
Edwin is HERE! 💕💕✨✨ The tabac dial is so RICH AND LOVELY! 😍✨✨✨ I think that’s my favourite too! Nomos and Glashuette really did reinvigorate my love of horology. It was just what I needed!
Britt! It is warming to see you express your emotions, and lay bare the struggles we all go through. You and James will always have a special place because you both prove you care. Warm wishes to you both. Also great video! Long Live the Cult(s) and 4:30 date windows.
DONH!!! He’s here!! With a new UA-cam name?! 😝😱 you threw me off there! BAHAHA but you know; I hid that part at the end! I know most people are here for the watches. But nomos really has reinvigorated my love of watches. 💕 I really needed that trip to nomos and Glashuette and just soaking it all in! Sending you ALL OUR LOVE! Long live the cult(s) and may 4:30 date windows die a death! 👻💕💕😝😝😝✨✨✨💕
@@BrittPearceWatches Britt! Sorry about the name change. That is my second gmail account that I do not use that often. It is my spam/list sign up account. I do not know how it was not on my primary. Sorry...4:30 date windows rock!!
I have always found Nomos so minimalistic, and so I never found them to be worth the price point. These Nomos Club Sport watches, with their beautiful sunburst dial, certainly breaks the mold. This is a Nomos that I would consider buying. My only issue with it is the painted markers. To get that premium feel, and to justify that premium price, applied markers just seem more fitting. In any case, thank you, Britt, for bringing these gorgeous watch to our attention.
Welcome to the chat Gringa’s new kitten! I am quite taken by that Tabac! Hey Britt! I went to this Christopher Ward event in NYC and they gave a presentation. AND in the middle of that presentation, they mentioned you and had screen grabs of you a couple of other UA-camrs with quotes. I was like hey! I follow her! Haha super cool yo.
I'm about a year in with the 37mm Petrol, and it has been a great watch to wear and enjoy. It sits flat on the wrist, it's lightweight, it's very comfortable, and the lume is actually very good. I can make adjustments to the bracelet in about 30 seconds when the temperature fluctuates (a frequent occurrence in Ohio), and the DUW-3001 is lovely to stare at when time allows. I also get a ton of compliments on the dial - as you said Britt, Nomos are masters of color! So cool to hear about your enriching trip to Glashutte and just how much these folks love the art of watchmaking 🙌
I like the new Nomos Kitten. Second favorite is the Club Sport being below the 50 mm lug to lug, which is the magic number for being wearable on a smaller wrist. Very well could be my first Nomos, I've been on the sidelines wanting one for four years now.
I totally get wanting to have a distinctive unique design feature that makes your brand more recognizable and associated with but the overly long lugs is not the way to go.
Just got my first ‘Luxury’ watch which is the Nomos Club Campus 38.5mm in Magenta I’m a guy btw and I love it except for the overly long lugs!! Have never thought of getting a Nomos let alone my first expensive watch but I think it’s one of my favorite brand now except for the overly long lugs
within the UA-cam watch community, your videos are incredibly delightful and refreshing! Please continue to make your content. You definitely have something going here!
No denying the quality and all that but the design is the biggest factor on if you like and want to wear a watch. I personally don’t dig the lugs, the bracelet, or the clasp and wouldn’t purchase for those reasons. I find it funny that a brand is aware that many of their potential buyers and enthusiasts complain about the lugs, but yet they refuse to do anything about it.
I think you’re so right! The design definitely isn’t for everyone ! 💕 and design is such an important part in choosing a watch - if not the most important thing! Design and wearing experience.
I love the long lugs. As someone with a 20cm (7 3/4in) and rather flat wrist, their "extended" case is the only 39mm watch that looks like a watch rather than an enlarged freckle! Great vid Britt!
These are a HUGE 39mm - in addition to the daddy long lugs, the dial aperture is also big for a watch of this size - definitely try the 37mm and work up from there
Respect for them even making their own hairspring and balance. Not many watchmakers do that. Apart from long tooth lugs, cheap stamped clasp, and the subpar bracelet, they are great watches for the price. The Horween leather straps are good quality as well.
New to watches and I am really digging this Nomos brand, what you get for the money is amazing. I am probably going yo buy their light grey Club next year (buying a Longines right now). I have the means to buy a Rolex but unlike my sister who just dropped $15k on one for the name I don’t need to brag to the world that I am successful, I just cannot see ever spending $15k on a watch when there are so many fantastic watches put there like these or others for a fraction of the cost.
I own the 37mm version, and there is nothing subpar about the wearing experience of the bracelet. This watch is every bit as comfortable as a DateJust. Certainly a "glide lock" style micro-adjust system would be an upgrade, but I can't think of other brands at our below this price point offering on-the-fly adjustment - Tudor now has the T-Fit, but their prices have risen a bit higher than Nomos. The clasp is also definitely milled, although I agree scratches show easily on its polished surface. I just wanted to address those points, as I see overall you are praising Nomos which they absolutely deserve. As far as the lugs, that is part of their design language and is easily accounted for by going with a smaller case size.
Thank you for the great video. As a watch lover from Germany who lives in Switzerland I love how you appreciate Glashütte and Nomos. And for Nomos: I think the 39mm is the sweet spot for me. Dangerous for the wallet...
I've never wanted a bracelet on a watch, but seeing that Tabac version contrasted with metal is just beautiful and I completely get it now. Really well shot btw.
I think I like steel bracelets, especially in hot weather. The trouble is I need half links and tool-less microadjust. I don’t remember that problem when I was younger and slimmer but my wrist really varies depending on my temperature. I don’t know if it’s the total weight but I also prefer smaller watches on a bracelet. I’m so fussy. Mostly wearing a rubber strap at the moment
@@frogsplorer Temperature dependent :D, reminds me of the Ideal Gas Law from physics I learnt as a kid. Rubber straps are also my favourite, especially with a blue dial.
Hi Britt, I love them! Fabulous that you visited Glashütte! Are you going to make a special video about that visit? 🤪🤪 Oh wait! I hadn't viewed the last part! Great...(drool...) I just HAVE to visit them as well!! You're inspiring, got all enthusiastic.....😊
Nothing can kill rolex . If people are ok with being treated as shit and buying 50k worth of things they don’t want for a 10k steel time only watch they are not going to switch their rolex for nomos 😂. And for people who want an amazing watch value for money nomos is already top of the list and dufour suggests rolex and nomos for the first watch so whatever you chose you have the stamp of the goat
I'm glad you got the fire back for the channel. I love your videos. Regarding Nomos. I do enjoy the Club Campus but these really do nothing for me, I guess I just really enjoy the Nomos straps. I also like the California dial.
I love this new release. I love the chocolate brown color. This line gives sophisticated field watch because it is time only and the Arabic numerals. Would love to see how the Tabac looks like on an olive rubber strap or nato strap.
Great vid... love the honesty. Sometimes, you can just hear the truth . Perhaps passion would have returned, but reconnecting with one's past is surely a good thing.
Love the tabac dial, and I’d definitely get that one. But the second hand is almost invisible. They should have had it with the white for contrast, or maybe have Tabac with the Ember color second s band and Ember dial with a Tabac seconds hand. Anyways, I saw someone else posted a review a week or so back and immediately went to check it out, it’s that good! But the price is a bit much (though I’m very sure it’s worth it) maybe early next year :)
Having also spent a week in Glashutte this past spring, your video brought back fond memories of strolling past Nomos HQ on the way to take the train to Dresden, of my visit to the German Watchmaking Museum, and browsing the selection of Nomos timepieces at their Kaufhaus in Glashutte. My souvenir of that memorable trip is a Tangente 38, and I heartily recommend to fellow watch enthusiasts that if you want one of their manual wind entry level models like I did, choose the exhibition case back - you won't regret it!
Oh man, I barely got the Cartier Santos through the door and now this video shows up. I'm so getting that dark brown tabac Club Sport. Amazing. These videos are financially taxing on the wallet 😂❤
Knew that puff filter would work, and yep Nomos has its own language. Still a 1921 Platinum forever. Guessing max compression too :-) smiling sound/watch dude. Well done on the heavier Rode setup. Getting back to learning why you love it. You sound back after recovery, congrats.
I can't share your enthusiasm on Nomos. The community has been criticizing the long watch lugs for a long time. Despite the company spokesperson's statements like "we continue to observe this and always keep our customers' wishes in mind," nothing seems to change. I personally believe that textile straps, for example on the Ahoi models, have no place on a watch that costs more than €3000. Regarding your last point, I think that political statements have no place in corporate communication. In the ongoing cultural battle, companies like Gillette, Disney, Target, or Budweiser felt the immediate backlash in sales after adopting a woke strategy. For instance, if the new model CLUB SPORT NEOMATIK 39 in TABAC, EMBER, and SMOKE is only showcased on a dark-skinned model, it's challenging for me to imagine how it would look on my arm. My suggestion would be to present the watches with models of various skin tones.
Britney, you have read my mind. I have been obsessing about Nomos lately. 😅 I think for the price the specifications are unmatched. Thin is luxury;) I am gonna go to an AD and check it out. And yes, the polished clasp will drive me crazy or crazier 😅
This video of yours had a very similar effect to me like your visit to Nomos: I was just about to unsubscribe most of the watch channels and after listening to you, I filtered my anger to what matters most... And unsubscribed most of them so that I can appreciate the remaining really good ones even more in the future. Both Nomos AND you show that there is still that pioneering youtube experience out there to be had. It has just become so incredibly obscured that one loses one´s spirit once in a while... Happy to say that THIS "one" has found it again: if you ever think of why you bother with this work, thing about this message. Just simply THANKS.
I love Nomos, Farer, Vario, etc because they are watch companies that make accessable watches that move the horology needle through design and innovation. They do it quitely like the Trinity + 2.
Love this vid. NOMOS makes such great pieces for the money. Really the Glashutte area in general is just amazing. Outside of Omega in the Swiss world when it comes to value for money Germany wins most battles IMHO. Nomos, Glashutte Original, Lange...all absolutely amazing.
What a fantastic watch and fantastic video! I love Nomos, and as far as the long lugs, they did have an outlier in their catalogue, the Metro! My Metro 41 Update has a shorter lug to lug than the Club 38mm! It’s still a large circle on my wrist, but it’s all watch and no lugs 😂
I have always taken that long lugged aesthetic to be a strong reflection of Bauhaus design language. I can wear a watch with that kind of lug to lug distance, though visually, on a strap they tend to look a bit gangly to my taste. The integrated bracelet tones that look down for me. I very much respect whet Nomos offers, but they’ve never offered anything that really spoke to me for one reason or another, this is a step in the right direction. Nice review.
I hear you on the clasp! What I've resorted to doing is just taking my watch off whenever I know I'll be sitting at my desk for more than a few min. It's not ideal and I'm also not the kind of person to put a watch in a safe, but I personally hate seeing scratches appear from things I know I could've avoided vs accidents or bumps from daily wear!
@@frogsplorer I had one but ultimately didn't like it because it trapped dead skin and moisture (gross and basically impossible to clean), I have a granite one currently that I just love the look and feel of but it's brutal on clasps and bracelets. I might consider a wooden one! I had one before but gave it to my girlfriend
I agree with your gripes. But I also think this style of watch would look better with a jubilee-style bracelet rather than an oyster-styled bracelet. The jubilee bracelet would really elevate the dressy components and probably add to the comfort.
If they are keen on keeping the lugs long, female end links would mitigate that well. For the strap models, my issue is just the gap between the strap and the case.
I really like the more emotional vibe of this video - and the watches are great as well! I don't think the 39mm version looks too big on your wrist, but if you disagree, just ignore me 😉 Saying that you get a lot for the money is definitely right but i sounds like the understatement of the year. These watches are Explorer killers! More sizes, more colors, completely in house just like the Explorer and on top of it all: available! I checked. I could go to two(!) local jewelers, put my money on the table and leave with a gorgeous watch!
The only things I love about this watch are the dial and the movement. The L2L measurements are enormous and the case finish looks like a cheap casio… I dont know…
I have a club. Lovely watch, I'm sure mine is 38.5mm, it's perfect as a dressy Watch on my 7 inch wrist. I spend hours looking at the open caseback, best looking movement I have.
I specifically like the Club Campus in grey or purple (which is a very toned down shade) and I once wanted to know whether I can pull off a 38 mm on my just under 7 inch wrist and it works fine. But whether the considerable gaps between the spring bar and the watch case are so attractive can be debated. The bracelets on the other hand are kind of an eyesore for me because they are just too shiny, not just the clasp.
Britt you really need to try out the NOMOS Orion 35mm Pure class and is a true unisex sized watch, I think you will really really love this watch, I picked mine up years ago when Nomos was considerable more affordable. I think I paid around $900 Canadian for an excellent used one. 😊 One last thing never ever stop doing your Patrons singing at the end, it always puts a smile on my face and makes me laugh. ❤
I NEEEED TO GET ONE OF THESE IN TO REVIEW!!!! I’ve got such a massive soft spot for the Orion and I think the 35mm is THE SIZE!!! I know it sounds small at first, but the proportions are *chef kiss* 😝 $900 Canada as well?!?! GET INNNNN!!!!!
I can +1 that. I got the 35mm Orion for my wedding and absolutely love it. It's the perfect dress watch size for IBWC me. It's also incredibly thin and light.
I'd like to see Nomos do more with the Tangente Duo series. Sternglas, Nordgreen, and others all play in that Bauhaus sandbox. Just give me two hands, no complications, and some fun colors like on the Club Campus.
Currently have two NOMOS and planning to get at least two more. The company’s values show in their watches. And the more I learn the more I want their watches.
YOU KNOOOOW. Not for me! I had the Tangente Hodinkee LE, and it was 100m w-r without a screen down crown and swam in it all the time! 🙈✨ but I totally get why people are a bit stand-off-ish about it!
Tim Jacks!! This is way too kind of you! 😭💕💕💕 this whole last year I’ve been trying to up my video production and get better at it! Almost completely self taught! My friends Vu and Lydia helped me learn how to focus and everything! But this whole last year I’ve bee n watching so many UA-cam videos on videography and product photography and just trying to improve 💕💕💕
I (along with 135.000 subscribers I bet), find you are adorable, Britt. You exude humbleness, competence, strong beliefs, love for your husband. you seem a caring person. never stop being the way you are. It is inspiring. and, by the way, I have a soft spot for Nomos, too! all the best to you and your family (cat included).
I love the Club Campus but the orange color doesn't come with a display caseback for some reason. I want one but I also want to see that gorgeous movement 😭
So, the design aesthetic of Nomos does not appeal to me. But I respect the brand. I enjoyed learning more about them from your video. So GLAD you got re-invigorated! Love your content. The unrelenting positivity is so refreshing in the current environment. BROVO
1. Peeps need to chilly willy about the lugs. Wrist size aside, you get to love them as your brain adjusts. PLUS the sports bracelet seriously mitigates the length. 2. NOMOS offer so much (as you mentioned) that they are a hidden Rolex if Rolex weren’t so…..pish-tosh-posh. 3. You can really tell that the people at NOMOS absolutely LOVE what they do and it shows. 4. NOMOS saved Britty-P so…….😎❤️
My wrist is 6,7 inches, on the verge of your recomendations. Really wanna try both 37 and 39 mm, but Nomos is so hard to find. Maybe I'll just take the 500 km trip to Glashütte to try 75% of german watchmaking 😅
Thank you very much for this beautiful video, Britt. It was an absolute pleasure having you in Glashütte, and meeting you and James in person! 💗
Hello Nomos, I love your designs! Britt mentioned your involvement in social causes. What causes do you support? Thanks again.

yup, deffo don't gaf sbout Nomos but watched the whole thing and loved it. great stuff
Respect for them even making their own hairspring and balance. Not many watchmakers do that. Apart from long tooth lugs, cheap stamped clasp, and the subpar bracelet, they are great watches for the price. The Horween leather straps are good quality as well.
That's not a stamped clasp, it's clearly milled. Look at old rolexes or orient bracelets for stamped clasps

I love the club neomatik in petrol so much, but those lugs are the definitive deal- breaker. Nice review!
I've just put a post on WC about the club campus/sport
I can't share your enthusiasm on Nomos. The community has been criticizing the long watch lugs for a long time. Despite the company spokesperson's statements like "we continue to observe this and always keep our customers' wishes in mind," nothing seems to change. I personally believe that textile straps, for example on the Ahoi models, have no place on a watch that costs more than €3000.
Regarding your last point, I think that political statements have no place in corporate communication. In the ongoing cultural battle, companies like Gillette, Disney, Target, or Budweiser felt the immediate backlash in sales after adopting a woke strategy. For instance, if the new model CLUB SPORT NEOMATIK 39 in TABAC, EMBER, and SMOKE is only showcased on a dark-skinned model, it's challenging for me to imagine how it would look on my arm. My suggestion would be to present the watches with models of various skin tones.
Really liked your honesty about how you felt about the channel and how Nomos changed that.
Britney, you have read my mind. I have been obsessing about Nomos lately. 😅 I think for the price the specifications are unmatched.
Thin is luxury;) I am gonna go to an AD and check it out.
And yes, the polished clasp will drive me crazy or crazier 😅
This video of yours had a very similar effect to me like your visit to Nomos: I was just about to unsubscribe most of the watch channels and after listening to you, I filtered my anger to what matters most... And unsubscribed most of them so that I can appreciate the remaining really good ones even more in the future. Both Nomos AND you show that there is still that pioneering youtube experience out there to be had. It has just become so incredibly obscured that one loses one´s spirit once in a while... Happy to say that THIS "one" has found it again: if you ever think of why you bother with this work, thing about this message. Just simply THANKS.
Another heartbreaking release--WHY ARE WE SIZED OUT OF THESE GORGEOUS COLORS?!?!
I’ve had a Nomos Orion manual wind, no date for a few years and it’s one on my favourite watches. One I’d never sell.
I love Nomos, Farer, Vario, etc because they are watch companies that make accessable watches that move the horology needle through design and innovation. They do it quitely like the Trinity + 2.
First nomos that doesn’t look like a origami watch
🤣🤣💕
Love this vid. NOMOS makes such great pieces for the money. Really the Glashutte area in general is just amazing. Outside of Omega in the Swiss world when it comes to value for money Germany wins most battles IMHO. Nomos, Glashutte Original, Lange...all absolutely amazing.
Gringa Sunday 🎉
It’s the most magical day of the WEEK! 💕💕💕 and better now that Fernando is here!
For what it’s worth, I absolutely love your channel! The videos you’ve done lately are 🎯 Keep doing you and we will keep coming back!
What a fantastic watch and fantastic video! I love Nomos, and as far as the long lugs, they did have an outlier in their catalogue, the Metro! My Metro 41 Update has a shorter lug to lug than the Club 38mm! It’s still a large circle on my wrist, but it’s all watch and no lugs 😂
Very interesting watches. Thank you for this video
I have always taken that long lugged aesthetic to be a strong reflection of Bauhaus design language.
I can wear a watch with that kind of lug to lug distance, though visually, on a strap they tend to look a bit gangly to my taste. The integrated bracelet tones that look down for me.
I very much respect whet Nomos offers, but they’ve never offered anything that really spoke to me for one reason or another, this is a step in the right direction. Nice review.
Kitten relevant in every moment
Broke 100,000 subs. Can’t stop, won’t stop!!!
A very nice watch. If Oris releases a smooth-bezeled dressy sports watch with Calibre 400 movement, though, Nomos might be in trouble...
We’re glad you’re rejuvenated. Keep the videos coming.
I hear you on the clasp! What I've resorted to doing is just taking my watch off whenever I know I'll be sitting at my desk for more than a few min. It's not ideal and I'm also not the kind of person to put a watch in a safe, but I personally hate seeing scratches appear from things I know I could've avoided vs accidents or bumps from daily wear!
I haven’t had this problem but how about getting a spongy wrist rest?
@@frogsplorer I had one but ultimately didn't like it because it trapped dead skin and moisture (gross and basically impossible to clean), I have a granite one currently that I just love the look and feel of but it's brutal on clasps and bracelets. I might consider a wooden one! I had one before but gave it to my girlfriend
I agree with your gripes. But I also think this style of watch would look better with a jubilee-style bracelet rather than an oyster-styled bracelet. The jubilee bracelet would really elevate the dressy components and probably add to the comfort.
Welcome back ❤
If they are keen on keeping the lugs long, female end links would mitigate that well. For the strap models, my issue is just the gap between the strap and the case.
I must say I do like the look and quality of Nomos watches.
I really like the more emotional vibe of this video - and the watches are great as well! I don't think the 39mm version looks too big on your wrist, but if you disagree, just ignore me 😉
Saying that you get a lot for the money is definitely right but i sounds like the understatement of the year. These watches are Explorer killers! More sizes, more colors, completely in house just like the Explorer and on top of it all: available! I checked. I could go to two(!) local jewelers, put my money on the table and leave with a gorgeous watch!
The only things I love about this watch are the dial and the movement.
The L2L measurements are enormous and the case finish looks like a cheap casio… I dont know…
So the club sport in blue at a AD and I was surprised I didn’t like it. Lug to lug 49mm is to large for the case
I’m in love with this watch.
OK, now I REALLY want to visit Glashütte. Thanks for making me want to spend more on travel AND watches! 😄
I have a club. Lovely watch, I'm sure mine is 38.5mm, it's perfect as a dressy Watch on my 7 inch wrist. I spend hours looking at the open caseback, best looking movement I have.
I specifically like the Club Campus in grey or purple (which is a very toned down shade) and I once wanted to know whether I can pull off a 38 mm on my just under 7 inch wrist and it works fine. But whether the considerable gaps between the spring bar and the watch case are so attractive can be debated. The bracelets on the other hand are kind of an eyesore for me because they are just too shiny, not just the clasp.
Britt you really need to try out the NOMOS Orion 35mm Pure class and is a true unisex sized watch, I think you will really really love this watch, I picked mine up years ago when Nomos was considerable more affordable. I think I paid around $900 Canadian for an excellent used one. 😊 One last thing never ever stop doing your Patrons singing at the end, it always puts a smile on my face and makes me laugh. ❤
I NEEEED TO GET ONE OF THESE IN TO REVIEW!!!! I’ve got such a massive soft spot for the Orion and I think the 35mm is THE SIZE!!! I know it sounds small at first, but the proportions are *chef kiss* 😝
$900 Canada as well?!?! GET INNNNN!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣 you’ve also inspired me to NEVER STOP THE PATRON SONG!!! Also! Am I remembering correctly, are you still in the BB58 market?! 😝💕
@@BrittPearceWatches Yes I am still looking to pickup a blue BB58 I really miss that watch. You still thinking about letting yours go?
I can +1 that. I got the 35mm Orion for my wedding and absolutely love it. It's the perfect dress watch size for IBWC me. It's also incredibly thin and light.
@@MrFloRolf only real men wear 35mm lol Such a classic style dress watch
I really love your content! Keep it up, and best of luck 🎉 and by the way, a kitten is super cute!
I'd like to see Nomos do more with the Tangente Duo series. Sternglas, Nordgreen, and others all play in that Bauhaus sandbox. Just give me two hands, no complications, and some fun colors like on the Club Campus.
1. Thanks for another informative video; I never knew much about Nomos but now I'm going to do some research.
2. You should sing more. 🙂
Thank you for posting, and giving me another brand to think about!
Currently have two NOMOS and planning to get at least two more. The company’s values show in their watches. And the more I learn the more I want their watches.
200m water resistance….but with a push/pull crown. Britt - Does that give you any concern if you were to swim with it?
The 37mm has a push pull crown but the 39mm and 42mm have screw down crown's😉👍
YOU KNOOOOW. Not for me! I had the Tangente Hodinkee LE, and it was 100m w-r without a screen down crown and swam in it all the time! 🙈✨ but I totally get why people are a bit stand-off-ish about it!
On availability alone, it gives the rolex a run for its money. An underrated attiribute.
Britt great video. Can I ask your photography and video skills. Did you take a course or self taught?
Tim Jacks!! This is way too kind of you! 😭💕💕💕 this whole last year I’ve been trying to up my video production and get better at it! Almost completely self taught! My friends Vu and Lydia helped me learn how to focus and everything! But this whole last year I’ve bee n watching so many UA-cam videos on videography and product photography and just trying to improve 💕💕💕
@@BrittPearceWatches Amazing!!! Such good quality and an inspiration as I keep thinking of learning so good to see it possible 😊
I (along with 135.000 subscribers I bet), find you are adorable, Britt. You exude humbleness, competence, strong beliefs, love for your husband. you seem a caring person. never stop being the way you are. It is inspiring. and, by the way, I have a soft spot for Nomos, too! all the best to you and your family (cat included).
Shoot automatic movement and only 8.6mm thickness! So it’s doable you 13mm+ for no good reason GS 😮😂
I love the Club Campus but the orange color doesn't come with a display caseback for some reason. I want one but I also want to see that gorgeous movement 😭
So, the design aesthetic of Nomos does not appeal to me. But I respect the brand. I enjoyed learning more about them from your video. So GLAD you got re-invigorated! Love your content. The unrelenting positivity is so refreshing in the current environment. BROVO
I am Swiss but own 4 Nomos (Tagomat, Club 40 mm, Zürich, Ludwig 40 mm). Love them all. They are fantastic. Is anything wrong with me?
1. Peeps need to chilly willy about the lugs. Wrist size aside, you get to love them as your brain adjusts. PLUS the sports bracelet seriously mitigates the length.
2. NOMOS offer so much (as you mentioned) that they are a hidden Rolex if Rolex weren’t so…..pish-tosh-posh.
3. You can really tell that the people at NOMOS absolutely LOVE what they do and it shows.
4. NOMOS saved Britty-P so…….😎❤️
My wrist is 6,7 inches, on the verge of your recomendations. Really wanna try both 37 and 39 mm, but Nomos is so hard to find. Maybe I'll just take the 500 km trip to Glashütte to try 75% of german watchmaking 😅
The Germans are starting to show the Swiss up at their own game
About your previous video. And watching this video. Can I say Tudor movements are not completely in house whilst in Nomos everything is done in house.
