Watches - another OCD problem

Rolex have gone completely bananas…

Picked up my first proper watch this month. I'd been lusting after the Nomos Metro for about the last year or so, trouble is the manual wound gangreserve model is so bloomin' hard to get hold of, even harder to find a bricks and mortar store with one in stock to try on.

I was worried that it might be a bit for my small wrists, hence wanting to find somewhere with it in stock, but I think the 37mm case works really well, even with the extension of the lugs.

Couldn't be happier with it, and couldn't resist taking a snap in the morning sunshine today.

I'm a bit concerned that @GingerMagician may have started something though. First Iron Heart, now watches!

Nomos is a great brand and really well made.

Don't try to pin this on me @footandmaff - all your own work

There are well documented chapter ring alignment issues with this model that may niggle you if you get one that's not bang on @Giles  (it would bother me).  Worth buying in person if you can - you can see the one @Anesthetist has posted the pic of is quite a way off at 12 o'clock.

Having said that, at $250 (plenty less than I paid), it's a great watch either way.  Looks great on the bracelet, a NATO or an Isofrane-style rubber strap (which is what mine's on).

Tag Heuer have just announced the Modular, their second generation smartwatch. The big news is that it's possible to swap out the electronic module for a mechanical unit, including their tourbillon.
