Most articles discussing NOMOS Glashütte begin with a mention of the German company's design language, which leans on traditional Bauhaus sensibilities. As a defining characteristic, it isn't a bad one to have, as the brand's immaculate take on the 20th century design school has allowed NOMOS to achieve a level of aesthetic consistency across its various collections that is both rare in the modern watch industry and recognizable from across a room.
