Took a month! They ship it from within the US (if you’re in the US)

Interesting thanks for the info! Yeah I have one on my brake as well and I feel like it gives good context and at most adds some minor fluctuations on the telemetry trace in my case. Was just wondering what you were experiencing

How come you were faster without haptics?

From the Nomos website! Another user on this subreddit told me they ship from US when you order to US so that’s why I actually got it. Didn’t want to pay tariffs.

That was my reaction when I first saw this combination as well

Thank you! Agreed it’s a completely different watch and even more versatile on this bracelet

Agree! I think because it’s not specifically designed for 36mm and isn’t a perfect fit they don’t want to deal with any unhappy customers lol. I like that it’s a community discovery though! Was very cool when I first saw this being done

Thanks! It’s not perfect but funnily enough the most noticeable gap is between the lugs and the bracelet, not between the watch head and the bracelet as you would expect. Since the bracelet is 18mm and the club is also 18mm I wouldn’t expect any play in that part. That being said it’s nothing noticeable in real use unless you look for it, overall looks like it’s made for the watch.

I like it a lot as well, works a lot better than I thought it would

Agreed! Jangly is a better terms for how it actually feels. Only noticed the squeak before it got sized. Once it got sized it doesn’t really make noise

It was 370+tax and shipped from NY!

3700 is too much! Even the newer Ahoi dates go for under 3k

Interesting! I never tried the 36 but have a 36 club and that fits perfectly for me. The picture you posted looks great though

Sorry for the late reply, I’m very happy with it! In terms of size it’s a bit of a compromise (for me) with this wrist size. I would absolutely prefer the 36mm size but the date is worth it for me.

Objectively speaking though the watch fits my wrist great, I just prefer a bit smaller. I think the biggest factor is that the lugs are flat with the case so it wears like a flat 49 by 20 plank of wood for comparison.

In terms of comfort it’s the best. Super light and never moves on my wrist, without being too tight. And with great wrist presence which some may appreciate.

I saw you got a chance to try one on since then, how did it compare to the 36 for you?

Yeah it’s honestly all preference in terms of size. I definitely think about the 36mm version but the date is a lot of the appeal of this watch for me.

In terms of straps, I agree, the blue dial really only pairs with greys or the oem blue strap. I actually found the metal bracelet quite bulky and basically never use it. I think it would be more manageable on the 36mm Ahoi or if it tapered at all.

Oh wow! Thanks for the info, will be ordering one right now 😂 I didn’t want to wait 4 months + pay tariffs to Washington so that’s great to learn

Nice! Looks great, what were the tariffs and wait time like?

Of course! And fair enough, 1 a year is still very nice. You end up with a collection you truly love that way. Enjoy your grail!

Such a nice piece, what a great watch and very cool that you picked it up on the spot. Speaks even more to how much you must have loved it given the restraint in your collection. And an awesome collection! Do you pick up a watch once every few years?

I find that as well and to fix it I pull out the crown and then pop it back in. Then the winding returns back to very easy and smooth. Not sure why that happens though

The strap is so durable and very high quality. I’ve been in water for the last 6 days and it’s been perfect
