One of the most impressive new watches I’ve seen this year is the Nomos Glashütte Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer.

The watch debuted at Watches and Wonders in Geneva back in April, which is where I originally went hands-on with it and was left thoroughly impressed. Debuting a new movement, the in-house Calibre DUW 3202, the watch is a clever twist on the worldtimer format.

Pressing the pusher at 2:00 simultaneously rotates the city-adorned inner bezel and jumps the local hour hand to match the time of the city displayed at 12:00 when traveling, while a 24-hour subdial keeps track of the time back home.

The watch features a 24-hour subdial at the 2 o'clock position with an orange hand, a seconds subdial at the 6 o'clock position, and a world time ring around the outer edge displaying city abbreviations in yellow. The main hands show the time as approximately 10:08.

It’s both a highly practical and useful travel watch and the ultimate wrist-worn fidget toy, as clicking that pusher is the highest form of tactile entertainment for watch nerds like me. As the cherry on top, the watch is also great-looking, and Nomos debuted several fun colorways at launch.

All of the really cool colors were limited editions that have long since sold out, but now Nomos is revisiting its most impressive watch in years with a trio of new limited-edition colorways for the Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer — and they arguably represent the best-looking versions of the watch yet.

Dark mode

Silver metal wristwatch with a black dial featuring turquoise numerals and markers. The watch has two subdials, one for seconds and one for 24-hour time, with an orange hand on the 24-hour subdial. The bezel is smooth and polished, and the watch has a matching silver metal link bracelet. The brand name "NOMOS Glashütte" and the model "neomatik" are printed on the dial. The background shows a cityscape at night with illuminated buildings.

Nomos’s new colors for the Worldtimer share a common theme that the German brand calls “Night Navigation.” All three have galvanized black sunburst dials with different colored highlights that take inspiration from various sights one might encounter when flying at night.

“Trace” features turquoise accents meant to evoke the appearance of modern skyscrapers lit up at night. “Grid” has orange tones that recall the warm glow of street lights in a large city when viewed from 30,000 feet up. Lastly, “Vector” finds its inspiration in the cockpit, with its olive and yellow notes mimicking a plane’s navigational instruments.

Silver wristwatch with a black dial featuring orange Arabic numerals and markers, two subdials, and white and orange hands. The watch has a stainless steel bracelet and is worn on a wrist with brown skin, paired with a brown and orange knit sleeve. The brand "NOMOS GLASHÜTTE" and the word "neomatik" are visible on the dial.
Outside of the new colorways, the Nomos Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer is the same innovative, easy-wearing watch as before.

Outside of their subtle color differences, the three new Worldtimers are exactly the same watch as before with a 40mm x 9.9mm stainless steel case, a screw-down crown guaranteeing 100m of water resistance, a blue AR-tinted sapphire crystal, blue-emission Super-LumiNova on the hands and indices and a sapphire caseback displaying the decorated Cal. DUW 3202 automatic movement.

Pricing and availability

These Night Navigation models have taken what was already one of my favorite watches of the year and made it even better. All of the new colorways look great, and their inspirations — while fairly abstract — tie in nicely with the watch’s travel theme. I’m torn between Trace and Grid over which is my favorite, but I really don’t think you can go wrong with any of these.

All three Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer Night Navigation models are limited editions, unsurprisingly, with production capped at 175 pieces for each. They all have identical pricing and are available on a black textile strap for $4,510 or on a matching three-link stainless steel bracelet for $4,720. I’d take the bracelet, personally, but whichever you choose, do it quickly because these will not last.

Silver stainless steel wristwatch with a black dial featuring turquoise Arabic numerals and markers. The watch has a smaller subdial at the 6 o'clock position and a 24-hour subdial with an orange hand at the 3 o'clock position. The outer edge of the dial displays various city abbreviations in turquoise. The brand name "NOMOS GLASHÜTTE neomatik" is centered below the 12 o'clock marker. The watch has two pushers and a crown on the right side and a linked metal bracelet.Nomos Glashütte
