Xmas Nomos Original Metro - Strap Advice
Delighted and Surprised as I opened up my wife's Christmas Gift to me: a Nomos Original Metro. Love the Watch. Mark Braun is a genius! The design is so interesting. The all-face design makes the 37mm really appear large. The online pictures don't do justice to the silvery face and the subtle ways all the colors work together.
Predictably, I started shopping for additional straps on the Nomos website almost immediately! I'd love some advice from anyone more experienced w/any Nomos model. I'm thinking of the Brown Strap w/Red stitching as purchase #1. I'm inclined to stay within the quick release world. ( I'm clumsy with my spring bar tools. ) I was a little surprised that the Nomos M strap is at the smallest setting on my not-quite-7" wrist, so I'm looking for an S - which feels kind strange for a guy that also wears a 42mm Speedmaster and a Submariner w/o an issue. Thoughts on Nomos Straps or other branddd straps for the Metro Original? |

I just happened to be wearing my Metro this month.
Although I’m a huge fan of their watches I think the Nomos straps are rather plain. One of my favorite strap brands is Bulang & Sons especially their leather Natos. They’re a bit pricey but the quality is top notch. This one is Lumberjack Brown.
