Introducing: The NOMOS Glash¨¹tte Neomatik 'First Edition' Watches, With Automatic Caliber DU
NOMOS Glashütte has been around since 1990, believe it or not – here at HODINKEE we find it hard to imagine that the company’s already a quarter century old, because they’ve managed to keep a sense of inventiveness in how they present themselves, and in their watches, that makes them seem perpetually fresh. None of this is an accident, of course – in fact, a big part of the reason that NOMOS has as much goodwill from the watch community as it has, stems from its obsessive concentration on getting all the details just right. We’ve all seen innumerable watches from innumerable brands that almost work, but that have that one niggling detail that, like a puncture in a balloon, lets all the air out of a design.

Questions on JLC
I have a few stupid questions about this maker. Is this an in-hose maker? Every time I read about AP or PP movements I eventually find some reference to JLC, for example the AP2140 is apparently derived from the JLC960R and that's apparently comes from the JLC889 and that's just one of many examples. However in most forums and elsewhere there are always very few references to JLC itself as if it was not very well regarded by WIS. Is there any reason for that? Also most watches from JLC seem to be quite a bargain if compared with the similar PP or AP using derived calibers, is it just that they are not as overpriced or is there any quality shortcut in the production? From the few pictures both of the watches and the movements I cannot see anything but I might very well overlook something.GLF
