The Value Proposition: The Nomos Tangente, Setting New Standards For The Modern Watch
Some watches cost $36,440 and are worth every penny. Other watches, like the Nomos Tangente, cost $2,330 and make you wonder why more companies can’t (or won’t) produce models offering this much value. The Tangente is the type of watch that makes writing this column easy. A little too easy. At this price point, there’s no other modern brand that gets design, manufacturing, and quality consistently right – across a range of models, to boot. The Tangente is minimal without being sterile, modern without being brash, and above all, it houses an in-house movement, the Nomos Alpha caliber.
