Guess which one I voted for Angelo? Surprised to see so many here have handled all three watches.

That's an easy one Ralph since I already know you're a huge Nomos fan...and with good reason. So am I thanks mostly to you.

Sorry not to follow your list. I would go for a blue dial/red date 116200 with super jubilee bracelet.

Thanks for your input but I don't want a date function and 36mm simply looks too small.
In the last few days I've been seriously considering the OP with the Rhodium dial instead of the blue.

Rhodium dial OP is a great choice. Very different from other dials.
I'm a 36mm lover!! Hehehe.

I've wanted to love the 36mm but I can't get by the size even though I don't have a large wrist at 7 inches.
Yep, that Rhodium dial is growing on me and might be a touch more versatile than the blue. They're running neck and neck in my mind right now.

I can understand (6'8 inch wrist here). I love my 40mm subs but when I'm working or playing with my daughters I feel smashing the watch everywhere. With 34/36mm I feel really comfortable.
For sure you'll love your new watch!! Enjoy it with the best health!!

Angelo, congrats on closing in on another. I think AK is too similar to the ExpI. If OP, I'd go grape dial.

And here's a suggestion: consider a Grand Seiko. You already have fantastic brands (Rolex, Nomos, Tudor). A GS would be a great addition and would complement the stable. You can get a different color dial (i.e. cream) to balance your fantastic collection. Congrats!

Grape dial OP is very nice. Buy 2 and give one to the wife for supporting your watch hobby.

The OP Rhodium 39 will be a nice addition, I also really like the AK but it seems too similar to the 214270. The Nomo is a nice one too, in the dressy category.
