Nice green/teal color. I have the blue dial version.

Size wise, how do you compare it with omega seamaster diver? I tried the sm300 in bracelet once, but feel too large due to long lug to lug distance. Maybe the rubber version will hug the wrist better for small wrist (6.5"). Will try to test it once the shop open.

Need your opinion guys, i have been eyeing a Nomos for a long time. Just saw this deal and the price seems very reasonable. What do you all think?

https://sg.carousell.com/p/new-nomo...780973&t-referrer_request_id=bruy6ved5WOVKJQS

this is about 30% off RRP, which is around the price you will get if you go to a grey dealer, so not a super good price, and someone mentioned its 33mm.
If you are looking for a similar budget i would recommend a club 36mm or club campus 38mm instead... it can be worn both casual and dressy
If u are set on the tangente duo, ask for the AD name & warranty expiry lor
oh and check for the AR, i got the metro which wears very nicely, but the reflective sapphire puts me off, but on the Weltzeit its not obvious

size wise due to my bigger wrist at around 7.25-7.5", the sm300 wears better for me. my wrist size, 50mm lug to lug will sit nicely so kamasu wears smaller for my wrist.

hopefully the rubber strap fits ok for you cos the sm300 is really a nice watch. :D

I have a 35mm orion and the general comment i get is that’s a smallish watch. Which i agree, certainly by contemporary standards.

Up to OP’s pref, but thought he(assuming here) should know and seriously consider.

Thanks for all the replies. Yea it’s true it’s abit on the small side. But might be good for the other half. Thanks maybe I’ll look at a bigger size Nomos. Seems like a good brand.

Or else I’ll maybe get a grand seiko.

nomos are mostly small size, thin dress watches.
