my salutations to the other gentleman or lady who voted for Nomos. For me 10k and below just get a Bauhaus. 30k only go Rolex. 100k Patek (not sure enough or not).

Million dollar question is where are you going to get your NOMOS serviced? It’s using in-house movement and there are no official service centers here locally.

Seasoned collectors know to avoid brands with in-house movements and no official service centers to supply spare parts. Those two who voted NOMOS must be noobs.

Taking into account the servicing costs is what separates the seasoned collectors from noobs and wannabes. Rule of thumb is servicing will cost around 10% of the current MSRP price. 30k watch? Be prepared to pay around RM3k now and more later when the watch MSRP goes up or it gets to vintage status.

Vintage simple 3 handed omegas are getting hit with a RM8k minimum for servicing by the Swatch Group. YMMV

And service intervals is 2 years for a heavily worn watch and 5-8 years for a lightly worn watch that is on rotation.

thanks for the lesson. I only wear a xiaomi which by itself also 3 years old now. I will never buy a luxury watch unless one day i wake up with 1 extra comma in my account....and even then will only just buy a rolex...

i just love to watch from afar.
