Look nice especially the blue. shame 40mm may wear big due to the dial and small bezel plus lug to lug length will be long!

I really like that.
Price on the bracelet doesn't seem unreasonable, considering what you get. In-house automatic movement, nice and thin at 9.7mm but still WR to 200m, a useful 20mm lug width.
They do wear big, I had the manual 38.5mm and it was borderline on my 7” wrist.
Similar, tried one on in the store, ended up going for a 36, which I’ve kept for a couple of years nowQuote:

What are they playing at there? They’re all over the map. Even a monster sized company shouldn’t have that product range for one single model family. I get the fear when I see that lack of focus in such a small company.
The 40 isn’t a new size either, but it’s far less compelling proposition compared to the 41 Sport, where they actually gave it sensible sized lugs.
I wish more brands had such a range of sizes. Most offer two sizes, one too big and one too small.Quote:

It has real presence without being overbearing, it is also very light, which is a big plus in my book.
Before buying (online) I saw a video on YT which showed how the watch looked on a smallish wrist, and then the same watch on a larger wrist, and that persuaded me it would be OK on my wrist. But damn if I can find the video now.
They’re sized for the movements rather than the other way around?Quote:

I'm a fan of most of the Nomos range (though still haven't gotten round to buying the Metro 1101 I said I would) but those LEs don't do much for me. The one on the sales forum is much more interesting.
The more I see of the new ltd editions the more they look balanced. The 36mm Dunkel has been on my wish list for a while but has l2l of 47mm, similar to my BB58, but much smaller dial & lug gap.
The 40mm club has a l2l of 51mm a few mm less than my Panerai, a slightly bigger bezel (but overall large dial) but does seem the lug gap between case & strap is shorter.

It makes sense if they are fleshing out a product family with the focus on the wear and look of each offering rather than fitting them into arbitrary sizes to make them appear orderly to an Internet forum ;)Quote:

Too many variations on a theme. Anti bling in several muted shades. But we’ll make them big all the same.
Blue needs a deployant clasp, a better strap & to be in stock.
I would add one of they could resolve the above

I like the black version. The previous similar model at 42(?) was just pushing wearability of a near-all dial watch too far.
But the price - God no. What are they thinking?
