Tangente Sport Neomatik 42 Date

How it wears

Wears larger than its 42 mm case suggests

Nomos Tangente Sport Neomatik 42 Date measures 52.6 mm lug-to-lug on a 42 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.25 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 96% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 98% of the 108 Nomos watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 59 mm (2.32 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 71 mm (2.80 in) it starts to look compact. Below 52.6 mm (2.07 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
