In a sea of watches aiming to dazzle and impress at Watches and Wonders 2025, Nomos reminded everyone how much fun mechanical timekeeping can be.

The lighthearted German watchmaker introduced the Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer, a sporty travel watch with an ingenious new complication.

GP100: Gear Patrol’s annual roundup of the most important releases collects key watches, cars, outdoor gear and more. Browse the full list or catch up on last year’s winners.

The unassuming dial features a 24-hour sub-dial, a world time track on the outer rim, central hour and minutes hands and a small seconds. But the trick lies in how these elements work in unison.

When the lone pusher at 2:00 is pressed, the central hour hand advances one hour, while the world time dial advances one time zone. It blends a “traveler” GMT with a traditional worldtimer complication in an entertaining analog dance.

Travelers begin by setting the world time track to their home time zone, as indicated by a combination of abbreviations and airport codes. Then, they set the 24-hour sub-dial and central hands to their home time zone using the crown.

When their destination is reached, a few taps of the pusher set the watch to the local time. Better still, the pusher has a satisfying click and provides an engaging tactile experience from watching two elements of the dial adjust in unison.

The Club Sport Neomatik Worldtimer and its brilliant, novel caliber DUW 3202 automatic movement are part of Nomos’ permanent collection. It could represent the start of a new chapter in the story of mechanical travel watches.
