What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

NOMOS Glashütte Lambda 39

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.

Zelos Artemis

The watch's unique modular case construction with a sandblasted titanium outer case and a grey/white Cerakote coating on the center is a notable strength. The FKM rubber strap can be prone to a slight rattle, which may be a minor annoyance for some owners. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value proposition, with one reviewer questioning its value for collectors.
