NOMOS Glashütte Tangente 33 karatvsTrafford Watch Co Touring GMT

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.

Owners widely praise the Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT for its great finishing, fun and original designs, and nice dials. One owner notes the GMT's flyer function and unique inner bezel, while another reports their Trafford's domed crystal cracked after a short drop. Owners describe the Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT as having a "cool funky original vibe" and a "chonky boi vibe on the wrist but in a good way," with one wearer reporting daily use for a year without the watch stopping. On balance, owners rate the Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT highly for its distinctive aesthetic and robust daily performance.
