NOMOS Ludwig Automatic 40mm
251
How it wears
Wears larger than its 40 mm case suggests
NOMOS Ludwig Automatic 40mm measures 50.1 mm lug-to-lug on a 40 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.25 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 87% of the 8,010 watches in this database and longer than 95% of the 295 NOMOS watches listed.
A flat wrist width of 56 mm (2.20 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 67 mm (2.64 in) it starts to look compact. Below 50.1 mm (1.97 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
At 8.4 mm thick it is on the slim side, thinner than 91% of the watches with a listed thickness.
Wrist fit analyzer
Fit reference
Fills most of the wrist for a bold, sporty fit; lug shape and end links matter.
