Nodus retrospect full#
My suggestion is you sell an organ and buy both.For your consideration is a Nodus Retrospect 3, with the full kit. This video was made for you, so you make up your mind. If asked which one I would rather keep, I honestly don’t know. The scores are 68/80 to the Nodus, and 68/90 for the Borealis, and I swear this wasn’t rigged. Is constructed and regulated in the USA equals things up. The Borealis has the better movement, but the fact the Nodus Buy either new 9 9Īnd they are about $400, of course, getting hold of either is easier said Much the same, but the Nodus is a little more substantialĪt full price both watches are excellent value for money. Tolerances on the end link isn’t quite as good as the Borealis, but none The bracelet on Retrospect is outstanding andĭoes have a female end link. It is a milled clasp with 6 microĪdjustments and push-button release. The bracelet on the Borealis is superb, Great tolerances, good fit to 9 8
Nodus retrospect iso#
Nodus is 200m, Borealis 300m, neither are ISO tested.
The Miyota 9015 is undoubtably a better movement, so TheĬrown on both watches is easy to grip, is signed, operates smoothly, andĮngages easily. Regulated the Borealis when I first got it, as it was running +15spd. Is presently running about the same as the Borealis, but has a slightly The Nodus has the NH35 but it is regulated before leaving the factory. That’s a dial up reading on my timegrapher, in reality about +4spd. It has a Miyota 9015 running 7 8Īt 28,800 bph, and is presently running at+6spd with an amplitude of 0.1 Lumed, but is concave, and that is a rare and rather nice touch. I prefer theīorealis bezel, but feel this is just a matter of taste.
Nodus is also excellent, although somewhat lighter. No back play or wobble and it all lines up. The bezel on the Borealis is lumed, and the action is close to perfection. When it comes to lume, the Borealis blows the Nodus out of the water The watch has C3 lume, and is generously applied. It has pointed hands, and I love the second hand being finished The framed date window is at 6pm, just where I That said, perhaps the indices couldīe a fraction larger. Spend as much as you want, Iīelieve nobody can do it better. The green sandwiched and sunburst dial of the Nodus is a real The applied indices are filled with copious amounts of BGW9 The Cascais has this wonderful hobnail dial, pencil hands, and applied 9 9 The case back is quite plainĪnd perhaps a 3d logo would have been nice. Sides and a circular brushing to the top. Both watches have an ARĬoated domed sapphire crystal. It’s a simple shape that 8 8įits perfectly on the top of the wrist. The Borealis has a fully vertically brushed case. Has a one year guarantee, against the Nodus’s two. Nodus use a Japanese movement, are put together in the USA,īut the parts are most likely produced in China/Hong Kong.īorealis are a Portuguese brand, and to my knowledge are solely The manufacturer’s measurements vary to mine, but unless my calibres are out, this is what I have measured. I am surprised the Nodus weighs more as it has a lesser water resistance, but I think the bracelet is probably thicker, thus heavier.
Nodus – Case 40.0, lug width 22mm, lug to lug 48mm, depth 13mm, weight 165. Let the battle commence.īorealis – Case 40.8mm, Lug Width 20mm, Lug to lug 47mm, depth 13.2mm, weight 147g So welcome to my unsponsored and unpaid head to head. I am carrying out the review without having totalled up the scores, because I want to have the same surprise as you. Two micro brands with similar dimensions, specification, and price tags.
