Is Nomos available in MY? If not, probably that's why no many know about it.

I know Nomos because I am currently based overseas. Nomos watches are famous for having high horology value but at a more affordable price. But the small second dial might not suit everyone's taste.
This youtube video gives a good intro to the levels of Nomos watches.

I own a Junghans Meister Chronoscope because I like the Bauhaus style. Maybe will get a Nomos Ahoi later.

Leica is a Chinese brand that copies the Bauhaus design from Germany.
For real Bauhaus design, go for Junghans, Nomos, Stowa, Junkers, Laco, etc.
It should have the label 'Made in Germany'.

My bad, I remember the Chinese watch brand wrong. It should be FEICE.
They copy the Bauhaus design in their watches. Some people do not realize this.

Haha, the mistake is mine. They only changed the first and the last letter of LEICA to become FEICE which is a homage watch (exact copy of Nomos and Junghans' design but with Seagull movement).

My brain somehow mixed up these two brands

Great that you like the small second dial. I did not like it at first but getting used to it now. I have it on my Junghans watch too.

I like Junghans more because the Bauhaus design was done by Max Bill, generally considered the best student from Bauhaus design school.

Nomos as displayed at Kutter, Stuttgart. Price in EUR.

Brands like Tag Heuer, Rolex, Omega, etc are well known because they spend a lot on marketing (i.e. sport sponsorship, celebrity ambassador, etc).
They do produce good watches but have to sell them at a higher price to cover their marketing budget and AD's commission.
