A Blog to Watch

NOMOS Glashütte Tangente 33 karat

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente's vintage, preppy aesthetic, with the 33mm version's smaller size making its polished case reflections less showy and more eye-catching. The power reserve on this model is 44.5 hours. Owners are split on sizing, with some finding the 33mm not much smaller than the 35mm, while others note that the long lugs can make even smaller models wear larger, potentially posing an issue for wrists around 6 inches.
