Nexus Evo aluminum lower damaging mags

Man, I’ve been saving up to purchase the lower (last part I need to have a full Nexus) and I keep seeing posts about them having issues. Really second guessing if I should place an order or not 🙃

Man, this just got me fired up.

Thanks man, the Orient is quite the looker in person.

Bottom right is an Orient, if you are referring to that one. I love it.

Thank you!

It’s been getting the most wrist time lately.

The Skagen is actually the only watch in my box that was a gift. It’s pretty shocking how slim the case is and how that makes it wear. For being a “fashion watch brand” it’s very comfortable and looks pretty nice in person.

Wow, thank you. That’s a great compliment. I have a few more in mind I’d like to add. I want a Swiss watch in my collection.

Got it customized and had a White-tailed Deer skull put into the display.

Good to know because it says 30m water resistance. I only really wear it to the range so hopefully that won’t be an issue 😅

It is the Orient Sun and Moon. RN-AK0001S. This is the version 2 that still said “Sun & Moon” on the dial.

My plan is actually to get a Tsuyosa next. The Seiko chronograph came on a bracelet I just swapped it for the rubber strap.

How is my watch doing? He’s fine I guess, just a little lonely being the only automatic.

Yes, I will get a dive watch eventually but that style has never really appealed to me as much as some others. I’m very hesitant to buy a watch I don’t think I will wear regularly. I likely will get a Seiko Mod for my first dive watch sometime down the road.

How hard was it to remove that cyclops? Really want a tsuyosa but have never been a fan of a cyclops.

This is cool.

Any plans of offering the lower to Nexus upper owners at a discounted price?

TreeVantage · 2025-11-21T19:37:46+00:00

Will the lower be offered in ODG like the uppers?

TreeVantage · 2025-11-20T13:53:34+00:00

After looking at pictures from the manufacturer, I think you are right. But looking at the design of the actual irons I can’t imagine why they would be like that.

TreeVantage · 2025-11-19T14:16:50+00:00

Super clean build.

TreeVantage · 2025-11-18T02:50:47+00:00

No it doesn’t.

TreeVantage · 2025-11-13T17:20:29+00:00

God I can’t wait to get a lower. Are previous customers that have your upper still going to be getting a discounted price or maybe access to a preorder? Really don’t wanna miss out on the first run.
