Working outside today. Spent 3 hours (6 am to 9 am) troubleshooting internet connectivity with the cable company, cable modem manufacturer and WiFi router manufacturer. I needed a calming space after that start to the day.

What do you think of the Nomos?

Time to start a four-day weekend.

A couple of cool things about this Nomos is that when you unscrew the crown there’s a red indicator to remind you it’s unscrewed. Also when you pull it out to the date position you can advance the date forward or back - it works in both directions. Finally, the date window is oversized, the Arabic’s are larger, and the date wheel is a great match to the dial.

It is. The brushed finish balances the polished case. The strange thing is the deployant comes on the watch opening towards you so I and others I’ve seen reversed the bracelet so it closes as you pull it towards you.

How are the lugs - are they super long like the rest of Nomos or did they revise them to a more reasonable length?
I think I read these lugs are much improved vs the old Nomos lugs...what do you think?

They are curved and hug nicely. I haven’t measured L2L yet.

That would certainly throw me off at first if it was reversed, ha! Very interesting design but looks light and snug on the wrist. Well done.
