Bremont SupernovavsNOMOS Glashütte Tangente 33 karat

The Bremont Supernova is praised for its new ENG375 movement, big date, and power reserve indicator, with its 40mm steel case featuring mixed finishing and an integrated bracelet. Owners note good but not great lume, well-balanced proportions, and a premium feel for its price, despite a 173-gram weight. Some community members find the design derivative and the £8,000 price tag overly optimistic, with mixed views on the date window and crown guard. The proprietary Trip-Tick case construction offers shock protection, and the movement provides a 65-hour power reserve. Overall, owners and reviewers highlight the integrated bracelet and proprietary movement as key strengths of the Bremont Supernova.

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.
