Hard to go wrong with nomos

One concern I currently have is their famously long protruding lugs despite the smaller dial sizes, which is really very difficult to gauge suitability without trying one on. :(

Wonder if any bros here has one in their collection to share their experience.

Happy weekend people!

Just wondering if you guys have any experience with Nomos? Am thinking of getting either:

Tangente Datum Gangreserve

Club Datum

I know one is much more dressy than the other, but what is the general take or opinion here on Nomos watches?
I love the look of Nomos Club. A bit sporty but still retain the refine look. Thinking of getting it in the far far future

Meant for freediving, 1 disc is 1 minute, so 1 full cycle will be 14minutes.
So if someone cross the freediving timing of 14min, this becomes a pretty useless watch :s13:
Icic... Thought I remembered reading abt some yatching heritage... Looks cool in any case :)

But aesthetically still looks good, it's one of the more unique seamasters around. At 1 point i was also considering this, but went for the classic 2254.50 instead.
