Thread: New shoes for Nomos Club

  1. #1

    New shoes for Nomos Club

    Inspired by Brad (or was it Der Amf?) who had an orange rubber strap on his Nomos homage in the summer, I thought I'd try my newly arrived Hirsch Pure strap on my Club. Given the sportiness of the watch and the simplicity of the strap I think it works rather well. It's also very comfortable.
    The strap, by the way, is lovely. I balked at paying £35 for a rubber strap but this feels worth it. Between the Club and my Seamaster I can see it getting a lot of use.

    PS is balked a word? I thought it was but Chrome disagrees....

    It was this combination which made me realise how absurdly high the lugs are on this watch*

    I had thought that transluscent would be cool, but I had counted on how crap they make the spring bars look. My advice: go chunkier and opaque

    Yes, it's an interesting combination but maybe not perfect. Blue might work well, to match the hands

    Chrome is wrong.

    Well that's a relief.

    Liked this one on IG, too, Olly. It's a great combo.

    And yes, balked is a word.
