Nomos Explores Spring Colors With The Club Campus All Olive And Full Rose

It has become an annual tradition for Nomos Glashütte to release 36mm and 38.5mm Club Campus models with two new dial colors to celebrate spring. The Club Campus is the perfect youthful series in which to explore new hues. As some of you might know, I love Nomos for leading the way in using uncommon colors and combinations of them to create some of the best dials in the industry. For the two new spring 2026 introductions, Nomos chose two great colors. The first is All Olive, a beautiful and rich dark green. The second is Full Rose, a soft pink that also works very well with the Club Campus. Let’s find out more.

We have covered the new spring Club Campus models over the past four years, so it was nice to look back. In 2022, Rob wrote an article about new pink- and purple-dial variations. In 2023, Nacho reported on new coral- and green-dial models. The year after, we saw light blue and red dial colors that Daan wrote about. Finally, last year, Mike reported on the dark blue and light yellow dials that marked the beginning of spring 2025. Looking back at all the different options, this year’s dials are my favorite. The combination of soft pink and olive green is wonderful as well. Nomos used this cleverly in its marketing efforts for these Club Campus watches, but luckily for us, we received two of the four for a hands-on experience.

The details of the Nomos Club Campus All Olive and Full Rose

If you’ve kept track of the yearly spring releases, you will know that Nomos launches the new dial colors in two sizes. The first is the standard stainless steel Club Campus 36, and the second is the Club Campus 38.

The regular 36mm model has an 8.2mm profile and a 47.5mm length, while the larger 38.5mm case offers an 8.5mm thickness and a 48.9mm lug-to-lug. Both watches have a 100m water resistance rating and come on dark gray or beige velour straps with a stainless steel pin buckle.

Powering both watches is the Nomos in-house-built DUW 4001 caliber.  This 17-jewel manual-winding movement operates at 21,600 vibrations per hour and offers a 53-hour power reserve.

In the past, Nomos used its Alpha movement, but the DUW 4001 is an updated engine with a longer power reserve and the brand’s proprietary swing system escapement. The DUW 4001 is nicely finished with tempered, blued screws, Glashütte stripes on the upper plate and bridge, perlage on the mainplate, and snailing on the ratchet wheel. But you will only be able to see the movement in all its glory if you opt for a display case back, which adds €200 to the price.

The Nomos Club Campus All Olive and Full Rose dials

Let’s zoom in on the two dials, though, because there is more to them than their main color. The first is the All Olive, which has a rich green shade contrasted by light yellow outlines for the luminous baton indexes and Arabic/Roman numerals. The small seconds register at 6 o’clock features a bright orange hand, and the minute track contains light pink numerals marking every five minutes. Reading this, you might think it’s a rather mixed bag of colors, but when you see it for yourself, it makes total sense.

The Full Rose dial is a soft pink and features the same light yellow outlines for the hour markers as the All Olive dial. This version’s small seconds sub-dial also features a similar small orange hand. Where it differs is the burgundy markings for the sub-seconds and minute tracks, the latter of which also features light blue numerals marking five-minute intervals. It’s another fun dial that is more detailed than you would think at first glance.

Wearing the Nomos Club Campus

I was lucky enough to try out both dial colors. We had the 36mm Club Campus with the All Olive dial and the larger 38.5mm model with the Full Rose dial. I loved that because the lighter dial is my favorite, and the larger model fits my wrist better. As it turns out, that is more important than the dimension on paper.

While the lug-to-lug of the Club Campus 36 is substantial for its case diameter, the 38.5mm model simply looks much better on my 18.5cm (7.3″) wrist. Yes, the smaller model is very well proportioned, and its 47.5mm lug-to-lug will be perfect for many people. Still, I couldn’t get over how the watch looked just a bit too small for me.

With the Club Campus 38, it was smooth sailing from the start. The watch fits my wrist perfectly, and I loved the soft pink dial paired with the gray strap. It is a wonderful color combination that immediately felt right at home on my wrist.

But I would love to see the watch on a lighter strap as well. A fun visual realization was that both models appear to have differently colored straps. Both straps are dark gray, but the effect of the two dial colors is remarkable. In combination with the pink dial, the strap looks lighter. It’s a nice bit of visual trickery.

Stylish and affordable daily wearers

Despite my preference for the Club Campus 38 Full Rose, I quickly grew to love both versions we received. The Club Campus is a perfect entry-level piece for young people getting into the world of watches. On top of that, they’re great watches for enthusiasts looking for a fun, affordable, stylish option. While the Club Sport line is still my favorite, these two new Club Campus variants are charming models that perfectly show why they are so popular. The new dial colors only add to that charm.

The 36mm Nomos Club Campus is available for €1,380, while the 38.5mm version is €100 more at €1,480. These prices are for the watches with an all-steel case back. As mentioned, if you want the sapphire-equipped display case back, the price goes up by €200. What you get for the money is a well-made daily watch with an in-house-produced caliber and a beautiful dial that once again proves Nomos’s mastery of color.
