Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMTvsNOMOS Glashütte Tangente gold neomatik

The Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT is widely praised for its stunning dial execution, COSC-certified Kenissi WERK 13 movement with a 70-hour power reserve, and legible Brixtrack luminous indices. Owners and reviewers highlight the surprisingly wearable 43mm titanium case and bracelet, noting its lightness and comfort despite the size, with one source specifically mentioning a quick-adjustable extension. The watch offers 200m water resistance and features a Synchroline indicator. However, some owners note the titanium scratches easily and the bracelet can be difficult to size. The watch is priced at €4,500. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Fortis Flieger F-43 Triple-GMT highly for its purpose-focused pilot's watch design and innovative movement.

The NOMOS Glashütte Tangente gold neomatik is lauded for its classic Bauhaus design and thin case, with the 35mm variant measuring a mere 6.9mm. Reviewers highlight the subtle contrast provided by gold hands and printing against black numerals on the dial. The neomatik 38 Update offers a more wearable 38.5mm execution of the ring date complication, featuring the in-house DUW 6101 caliber with a 42-hour power reserve, and the gold variants are priced at $16,100. While the Tangente Neomatik 41 Update's date mechanism is creative, its intuitiveness is questioned, and the 40.5mm size is noted as comfortable. The 35mm gold neomatik is considered a mild, rather than groundbreaking, addition. On balance, reviewers praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente gold neomatik for its elegant, thin design and refined aesthetic, particularly appreciating the wearability of its various sizes.
