Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners appreciate the Sugess Heritage S455's classic, clean dial protected by a sapphire crystal. One owner suggests removing the fake blue jewel on the crown. On balance, owners value the Sugess Heritage S455 for its clean dial design.
The Sugess Heritage S455 has a smooth and precise bezel action. The watch's value at the price point is a notable strength, with a fully functioning tourbillon typically found in high-end watches. However, the watch has a relatively weak lume brightness.
Owners and reviewers widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Lambda 39 for its spare clarity, minimalist purity, and Bauhaus dial design with excellent legibility. The in-house hand-wound caliber DUW 1001 is noted for its Glashütte finishing, including a three-quarter plate, hand beveling, and engraved balance cock, with an 84-hour power reserve. Some owners consider the full gold case and giant power reserve display well worth the price for its fine horology and minimalist elegance, while others find the oversized power reserve display and dial design clash with the main hands, and some dislike the lettering on the power reserve indicator. The high price point for gold models, around $18,000-$20,000, is considered steep by some, a significant departure from NOMOS's typical offerings.
