The Nomos Glashütte Ahoi Neomatik Atlantik / Closed Back takes a 18 mm strap: measure between the lugs and that is the only number you need. We list 31 straps in that width. Built for water, it wears naturally on rubber or a nylon NATO; a leather strap keeps it for dry days. With a 36.3 mm case and 200 m of water resistance, a strap of medium thickness keeps the balance. Automatic movement. Most straps here come with quick-release spring bars, so the swap takes a minute and no tool.
