====== Nomos Club ====== {{wst>image_cr|Nomos|Club|Nomos Club Hell (bright)}} {{wst>image_cr|Nomos|Club Dunkel|Nomos Club Dunkel (dark)}} **Club** is an entry-level wristwatch by [[Nomos]]. It is part of a family produced since [[2007]]. ===== Overview ===== [[Nomos]] had long been known for stylish, architecturally-inspired watches, but most had traditional or mature looks. The closest to a sports watch in [[2007]] was the [[Nomos Tangente Sport]]. That's why the Nomos Club caused a stir when it was launched. It presented a youthful and sporty look at an affordable price, the lowest in the Nomos range. With a rounded case, tapered lugs, and numerals at 2, 4, 8, 10, and 12 it stood out alongside the [[Nomos Ludwig|Ludwig]], [[Nomos Orion|Orion]], [[Nomos Tangomat|Tangomat]], [[Nomos Tangente|Tangente]], and [[Nomos Tetra|Tetra]]. The first Nomos Club model was sized at 36 mm, in line with most other Nomos offerings in [[2007]], and used the company's [[Nomos Alpha]] movement. This [[hand winding]] movement had a [[small seconds]] subdial, but this was toned down by a dial which didn't call attention to this old-fashioned look. It featured a shell cordovan strap and luminous hands for a more contemporary look. The original Nomos Club remains in production [[as of 2019]], with the same 36 mm case and Alpha movement. It is available with either a steel or [[sapphire]] [[display caseback]] (for extra cost). Another [[colorway]] for the 36 mm Club was "dunkel" ("dark"). Nomos also created special versions of the Club. In [[2008]], the Club Brigitte was created with a light blue color scheme for the magazine of the same name. The [[2010]] Club Hans was created for [[Wempe]]'s 100th anniversary with a bright blue dial in a numbered limited edition of 100 examples. Another limited series of 50 Club Hello models were produced in [[2011]] for the Thai magazine of that name. The inexpensive 36 mm **Club Campus** model is similar but has Roman numerals "IV" and "VIII" mixed with Arabic numerals. Introduced at 780 Euro, the club remains affordable at 1.080 Euro or US$1,550 [[as of 2019]]. ===== Nomos Club Model Family ===== Shortly after introducing the original 36 mm Club, Nomos added three more Club models A model with a date complication, the [[Nomos Club Datum]], and two [[automatic]] models, the [[Nomos Club Automat]] and [[Nomos Club Automat Datum]]. This would make up the bulk of the line until the [[Nomos Club Campus]] was added a decade later, in [[2017]]. A larger 38 mm [[Nomos Club Campus 38]] was then added the next year. The Club model was added to the [[Nomos neomatik]] line in [[2017]] with the thin [[Nomos Club neomatik]]. In [[2019]], the range was further expanded with the [[Nomos Club Campus neomatik]], [[Nomos Club Campus neomatik 39]], and [[Nomos Club Sport neomatik 42 Datum]]. ===== See Also ===== * [[Nomos Club Automat]] * [[Nomos Club Automat Datum]] * [[Nomos Club Campus]] * [[Nomos Club Campus 38]] * [[Nomos Club Campus neomatik]] * [[Nomos Club Campus neomatik 39]] * [[Nomos Club Datum]] * [[Nomos Club neomatik]] * [[Nomos Club Sport neomatik 42 Datum]] **References:** * Ref. 701 Club (2007-present) * Ref. 702 Club dunkel (2007-2011) Black dial * Ref. 703 Club (2008-present) Sapphire display caseback * Ref. 704 Club dunkel (2008-2014) Sapphire display caseback, black dial * Ref. 708 Club Campus (2017-present) [[Roman Arabic dial]] * Ref. 709 Club Campus (2018-present) Sapphire display caseback, [[Roman Arabic dial]] **Movement: ** * [[Manual winding]] movement [[Nomos Alpha]] **Case:** * [[Stainless steel]] * D 36.0 mm, H 8.2 mm * [[Sapphire crystal]] * Screwed-in steel caseback or caseback with [[sapphire crystal]] * [[Waterproof]] to 10 atm **Dial:** * Bright * Ivory with red surrounding minute track * Hands in black lacquered brass, hour and minute hands designed in red * Dark * [[Ruthenium]] (anthracite) with red surrounding minute track and [[Superluminova]] C3 * Hands in [[rhodinated]] brass, hour and minute hands with [[Superluminova]] C3 * [[Small seconds]] at 6h **Functions:** * Hours, minutes, [[small seconds]] **Bracelet: ** * Leather strap in black Shell Cordovan * Steel clasp embossed with NOMOS logo **Production:** * Production [[2007]]-Present {{tag>Watch_models Nomos_models}}
