I voted for the Type-A fleiger IWC, mostly because I lean toward the casual side of business casual, and it's the most casual.
Agreed. I'm finding this decison incredibly difficult and will probably end up buying a couple.
I opted for the Nomos; I actually wear a Nomos Metro to work (though the one with power reserve). I also wear two Grand Seikos, one from the Heritage Collection and one from the Elegance (though my SBGJ249 is less elegant, more chunky, than the one shown). I actually think the Grand Seiko Heritage Collection hits the sweet spot. To me, GS is king of the dressy sporty, sporty dressy, practical, versatile everyday watch, as best exemplified by the Heritage Collection, and the Heritage Collection watch is my favorite and most worn watch overall.
This is difficult, I like the sector dial and the Nomos speaks office to me, but I have a GS Skyflake, so I voted for what I actually chose. In the future though, maybe some others . . .
I went with the Flieger because for a casual office it was that or the sector dial. Ultimately the Flieger has a date window and in the office that could be handy so it won me over.
All gorgeous watches but todays vote is the IWC.
Would go for the Longine but I would find myself wanting a date. But that’s preference. but You might not care

Like you I love the sector dial and the longines is a cracking example other than the Jlc master.
My fave looks wise would be the Longines (but black dial). Purely for the office I voted for the IWC. All four are fantastic though.
The valid choices for me are either A or B. The GS is more suitable for of a gentlemen's watch while the Nomos can be worn by younger people or junior staff.
I know, it's a stuffy old man opinion. I'm an old man.
My immediate choice was the GS, but I would probably go with the IWC if I was to purchase one of the 4. I think it offers more versatility overall 👍
Between these definitely the GS. If a Nomos Orion was in the mix though, I'd have a harder time deciding
GS for sure, the finishing and quality is next level.
