I mentioned the lugs as an issue and maybe it was not just the size but the lug position. I also agree with Cervantes comment that i did seem to get a bit bored with the overall watch compared to my others -- even those in the same price range. I never really understood that factor but see i am not the only one

I owned a JLC and handled several Nomos, but can't give an accurate comparison on finishing because I never looked side-by-side. I have been impressed with Nomos overall in their price range.

I'd say the Ahoy has the shortest lugs and the Club has the longest.

I have a lot of respect for Nomos, and owning a JLC Ultra Thin RDM I would say that finishing is pretty much on par with the entry level at worst just a little less so. Brilliant value, the Orion series is stunning in my opinion, having owned one. I only sold it (35mm) because it was a little small, but the 38mm version is definitely on my rader.
