Value Prop: Nomos Weltzeit

Introduction:

The Nomos Weltzeit hits way above its price point. Yes, it’s an expensive watch but when you look closely, and take the time to contemplate, you’ll see that it’s not out of line!  In this review, we delve into the value proposition, and overall appeal of the Nomos Weltzeit.

Nomos Weltzeit - White Dial Ref: 805

Design and Aesthetics:

The first glance at the Weltzeit reveals a simple yet refined look. Given its major complication, that says something about the person who wears it. The stainless steel case is carefully crafted in the manner where its form fits its function. It is elegantly understated, putting it in the company of Jaeger Le Coultre, and early Longines pieces. It’s an understated watch, and would likely pass unnoticed  among those looking for an expensive watch to grab. With a diameter of 39.9mm and a thickness of 10.85mm, the watch is a comfortable everyday wear, and will conveniently slip under a shirt cuff.  If you’re wearing short sleeves, a casual strap will tie it in with loafers & deck shoes or of course, your favourite pair of ‘Birkies’!

The white dial Ref 805 makes this watch a 20mm strap monster!  It doesn’t matter what texture (well perhaps not alligator, croc & lizard IMHO) or colour, it is going to feel the bomb! So, when you’re feeling a bit bored, just throw another strap on it and admire how it changed.

The standout feature of the Weltzeit is its world time complication. The outer ring of the dial showcases the 24 major time zones, each represented by a distinct city. The slender hour and minute hands offer legibility, and in a way gives it wings, and a rather Pan-Am ’esque feel ( well, it is a World Timer).

Weltzeit Midnight Blue Dial Ref: 807

Functionality and Performance:

The world time function is the star of the show, allowing the wearer to effortlessly switch to different time zones with ease. The pusher at 2 o'clock enables quick adjustments to the city ring while simultaneously advancing the hour hand, jump transitioning from one time zone to another. Additionally, the 24-hour disc at 3 o'clock further enhances convenience by indicating “home” time. When you’re away, you don’t always need to know what time it is at home, so the ‘local’ time is seen with the primary dial and hands. The home time disc is discreet. It’s a simple function that’s there for when you need it most ( like getting the timing right for saying goodnight to the kids at home). You’ll never have to fiddle with the crown to switch time zones as you would with standard GMT’s, which has amazing intrinsic value as it removes a setting pain point.

Turn the watch over and you’re in for a surprise. It’s powered by the in-house Nomos caliber DUW 5201. The automatic movement is finely finished with “Glashutte” striping, thermally blued and black polished  screws visible through a sapphire porthole.  It’s not a chronometer rated movement but it doesn’t need to be. That alone keeps this watch ‘affordable’. You can expect it to get you where you need to go on time, or at least be an accurate indicator to your tardiness. With a power reserve of approximately 42 hours, the watch provides standard timekeeping duration before needing to be wound.

Comfort and Wearability:

Despite its complex functionality, the Weltzeit remains a comfortable timepiece for everyday wear. The watch sits comfortably on the wrist, thanks to its ergonomic case design, slim curved profile and reasonable lug to lug length. This watch is surprisingly light, considering its complications, which enhances the overall comfort, allowing for extended periods of wear without fatigue. You might even forget you have it on.

Value Proposition:

We’ve looked at a number of ways where the Weltzeit’s functionality, ease of use and unobtrusive design make it a stunning watch, but these things are mostly intrinsic values. Where does this watch stand in price comparison?

Well, there are not many players in this particular realm. Patek World Time models have a similar functional configuration but are conservatively +10X more. Yes, their cases are made of precious metal, and hold a very prestigious name but when you consider both have a proprietary movement with fine finishing, Nomos is offering something incredible!

As for others...

Breguet Marine Hora Mundi 5557 ~$100,000+ CAD

Jaeger Lecultre Geophysic Universal Time ~$18,000 CAD

Omega AquaTerra Worldtimer ~$12,000 CAD

Vacheron Overseas Worldtime ~$48,000 CAD

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the Weltzeit is a stunning creation that seamlessly blends form and function. Its minimalist design and attention to detail make it a true work of art. Whether you're a frequent traveler or simply appreciate fine craftsmanship, the Nomos Weltzeit is an exceptional choice. This timepiece transcends its primary purpose of being a ‘World Timer’ watch and instead becoming a travelling companion in a beautifully packaged wristwatch, making it a worthy addition to any watch enthusiast's collection.

Sjöö Sandström Royal Steel Chronograph: now in 40mm

I’ve long been a fan of what Swedish brand Sjöö Sandström has been producing, and their GMT Worldtimer has been one of the most worn (and well-travelled) watches in my personal collection. While their latest isn’t one that necessarily fits my usage of a watch, it’s worth noting that this is the first time they’re doing a mechanical chronograph in 40mm. So, it’s time to get familiar with the Sjöö…
