Introducing: The NOMOS Glash¨¹tte Neomatik 'First Edition' Watches, With Automatic Caliber DUW 3001, Launching In Ten New Models
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. NOMOS, on the other hand, manages to get all the details right again, and again, and again, with almost eerie consistency – and with an equally eerily consistent design language, which could easily start to seem repetitive or monotonous, but d

5001 accuracy
I own a Portuguese 7 day automatic. I've noticed that as power reserve winds down, the watch surges forward as much as 1-2 minutes (!) compared with 6-7 days ago. Could anyone help to shed some light on this? Did anybody have similar experience with their own 5001? Thank you.

Different grade ticking in the"right" case
Just curious, what do you think as a collector of watches from pieces with another caliber in it, than it would have been at the beginning (or as the old catalogue describes). Sure they are a "frankenstein", but if everything else looks OK?For example I have a second Ross case (the 982 in it is beyond repair) and a dial, but only a working 980 grade. Would you combine both or try to get a fitting 982 to make it more original. On the other hand, it will never be the real original watch, 'caus the grade, even if it is a 982, will be a different one than before.

Sutter's Chicago: no longer "Rolex Authorized Service Center"
This would seem to be a pretty recent change, but I went today and saw a change of signage. Now says Rolex Watch Specialists. I called Rolex in New York, to enquire, and was told that they were still a great place to have a watch fixed, but that it was no longer affiliated with Rolex. I asked about whether Rolex would essentially pick up the service warranty, since there was no connection between Sutters and Rolex related to any future services, and it was implied they would (but with the strong caveat that they could not definitively tell me that without seeing the watch, and confirming that any issue was related to the previous service). So, anyone with issues related to a previous service should probably keep this in mind. I'm sending mine to Rolex for its current issue (even if I'm told that the current issue wouldn't be covered by the service warranty and I'll have to pay for it).

Land, air and the sea.. the path less traveled
5 digit tool watches they once were in 16520, 16710 and 16610LV. Less bling but more charm?
