New Piece: Ace x Nomos Orion De Stijl

I have been looking to add Nomos for a while and when Ace rolled out this limited edition I knew this was it. I think they did a great job with this one. I like the simplicity of the black hands on the white face and with the asymmetric markers it's classy and fun at the same time. Nomos offers many wonderful pieces at reasonable price points and I'm very happy to have this one.

A big shout out to Ace here. They delivered the watch within days and were responsive to every question and request. And the watch came with lots of little goodies like a Nomos pen, a special bag branded for this watch, an Ace baseball hat etc. They are a very well-run business that love what they do and put their customers first.

That's a really cool watch! I had an Orion 38 previously...sold it because I decided I didn't really wear dressy pieces...but this one is giving me an itchy trigger finger :)

When I saw this I thought it looked amazing. If I didn't already have a nomos I would be all over it. I just have others I need first.

Moved my Orion to an OEM gray suede strap for a more casual look.

I’m a big Nomos fan and never saw that one before. A very unique piece. Big congrats to you.

So I swapped the light gray suede for the dark gray (anthracite). It works better for me.

Nomos was great. I emailed them asking if I could do the exchange and they shipped the dark out to me right away, before getting the light back. They just asked me to drop it in the mail (which I of course did). This is a company that really cares about its customers.
