Zürich Date 39.8mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 39.8 mm case suggests

Nomos Zürich Date 39.8mm measures 49.4 mm lug-to-lug on a 39.8 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.24 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 78% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 83% of the 108 Nomos watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 55 mm (2.17 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 66 mm (2.60 in) it starts to look compact. Below 49.4 mm (1.94 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
