chrgod Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 A new watch manufacturer has been replicated.. Nomos Glashutte ! http://www.1-pc8838....36-p-12085.html (White version) http://www.1-pc8838....6a-p-12086.html (Black version) Previously, Nomos used mainly manual wind movements, based on ETA. This replicas mimics the "Tangomat" model, which uses Nomos' in-house Epsilon-movement (no-date). Here is an article on Nomos and their Tangomat. This replica has Asian Automatic. The finish of the movement is of course far from the gen. From the front I think it looks good. I like that the seconds subdial seems to be in the right place. Welcome to the world of counterfeits, Nomos.. Only good brands are replicated. At the end of the day: . Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
gran Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 The rep will look great on the wrist but maybe closed case-back would have been better for the reverse side
Adeodatus Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 Ha finally! Always wanted one of those. Shame it's with open back, but I will definitely have to try it.
PhilFree Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 For the price of a gen Nomos does a rep really make sense? You get a manufacture movement in a classic watch for an amazing price. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
jbetts1790 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Posted March 21, 2012 The front does look good! Too bad about the crappy movement in seethru back...
cougar1 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Posted March 22, 2012 Nice watches, well made, love the classic Bauhaus styling, if they are well priced they might be worth it, but $300 and the dealers can go jump. You're right Philfree the gens aren't that expensive, at least for the entry level Nomos, not sure on the pricing of the above auto gen. Gran that is gorgeous, never even knew Nomos did something like that! Edit: It's lovely Gran and quite expensive! http://www.nomos-store.com/en/Watches/world-time-indicator/Zuerich/Zuerich-Weltzeit-sapphire-crystal-back.html

Edit: It's lovely Gran and quite expensive! http://www.nomos-sto...ystal-back.html Maybe it is worth saving up for...39.9mm is quite small these days so thats the only downside
chrgod Posted March 22, 2012 Author Report Posted March 22, 2012 Just ordered one, at 118 USD. Will see what it is like!
cougar1 Posted March 26, 2012 Report Posted March 26, 2012 Not a bad price at all, fairly simple dial on gen so hopefully the rep is accurate from the front, let us know what you think when you get it
chrgod Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Posted March 27, 2012 Here is some of the QC-pictures. ( I have already approved them).
mbjoer Posted March 27, 2012 Report Posted March 27, 2012 We look very much forward to the wrist shots Definitely!! I saw the Gen in Canterbury. It is really nice and compared to the other watches for sale in the same place (mainly Rolex), very good value. This may be the problem for the Rep. It will have to be very good to make it attractive compared to the Gen alternative.
archierocks Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 im going to order the black one with my order form joush this weekend i really really like it
JEKS Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 The rep has no subdial while all the gens, of any model on their website have one. Seems the biggest problem to me. Sent from my BB
gran Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 The rep has no subdial while all the gens, of any model on their website have one. Seems the biggest problem to me. Sent from my BB ??????????????what watch?????????????
JEKS Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 Sorry, screwed up. Was reading on a craptastic BB phone and missed the subdial. Throw the rotten vegetables, I deserve it.
gran Posted March 28, 2012 Report Posted March 28, 2012 Sorry, screwed up. Was reading on a craptastic BB phone and missed the subdial. Throw the rotten vegetables, I deserve it. cabbage ?
ryaku Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 Is the thickness inaccurate? I had a look on Google and gen seems way thinner Nice watch though
mbjoer Posted March 29, 2012 Report Posted March 29, 2012 I am wondering if we will see the Tetra rep as well. Some time ago Watcheden had it ................ but branded as Patek Philippe!!!!!!
blazed7 Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Looks like I came to RWG at the right time :3. Love Nomos (and bauhaus watches in generaly) and despite the movement being a underdecorated, I am strongly thinking of purchasing it as my first rep.
cougar1 Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Yep looks a nice rep, the qc pics look pretty damn good chrgod, we can get over the non-decorated movement at that price Let us see a few proper pics when you have it in your hands!
blazed7 Posted April 4, 2012 Report Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) Interesting. Looks like watcheden had a Nomos rep from a few months ago, with a decorated movement (ofc not on the same level as the gen): I wonder why the ones from joshua don't come with the same movement.
