Introducing The Nomos True Blue Zurich Weltzeit, A Favorite Receives A New Dial, And In-House Escape
You would be hard-pressed to find a more somber blue on the color palette, but that’s just how we like our Bauhaus – subdued and straightforward. The new True Blue Zurich Weltzeit is NOMOS’ chic take on its exquisite GMT that made headlines a few years back (check out this old-skool Week on the Wrist) and a recent appearance at HODINKEE’S event to welcome NOMOS to the States earlier this summer. Let’s dive right in.It’s unlikely for a HODINKEE reader to be unfamiliar with NOMOS, but just in case you haven’t had the privilege of being introduced to the younger German – here’s a quick preface. NOMOS Glashütte was born in '91 in the little town of Glashütte, Germany. If that name sounds familiar, that's because it’s also the birthplace of A. Lange & Söhne, the house that pioneered the three-quarter plate. Nivarox was patented here, and clearly, pedigree is contagious in this environment. 2 OF 3

Shell strap authenticity from Bruce and Donna Ginsberg?
I recently purchased a strap for my brand-new PAM 422 from Bruce and Donna Ginsberg that purported to be Horween shell cordovan. I own numerous pairs of Alden shell cordovan shoes and am quite familiar how the material looks and behaves in footwear. There are a number of things about this strap that seems suspect to me, including how supple it is immediately (my shell shoes have taken a long while for the uppers to soften), the lack of color depth, and the stamp on the underside of the strap. The stamp doesn't look like the standard Horween stamp, and the trademark symbol that is normally above the N in Horween is adjacent to it. Horween also tries to have small portions of the larger stamp on most parts of the underside of the shell, and yet that is not visible on this strap. If I had to guess, I'd think the strap was one of the imitation shell cordovan materials that are a coated calf or other such thing. Has anyone here purchased a shell strap from Bruce and Donna, and if so, are yo

I'm sick of waiting....
I'm sick of waiting for Rolex to release a SS Pepsi, but I'd take a SS Coke if they release one at Basel this year. I was hoping they'd release it last year, but when they didn't, I bought a new BLNR to hold me over.My grail is the BLRO so I'm seriously considering trading the BLNR in on a BLRO if an SS version isn't announced at Basel.Anyone else feel the same way?
