Looking for a special strap
I found this picture on Instagram a while ago and now I can't find it again. Luckily I took a screenshot at the time.
Since I have the same Nomos watch, I would also like the strap, but unfortunately can not find anything comparable. Do you have a tip where I can buy such a strap (in Europe)?

Your best bet is to engage a custom strap maker, and have them make one like that exactly the way you want it.
The type of stitching you are looking for is called "boxed stitching". It is not common in mass-produced straps but as @KristianG wrote, a custom maker can easily make a strap with that kind of leather grain and stitching.
Take a look at work Matteo from Torre Straps is doing https://www.straphunter.com/torre-straps

Thank you. I already ordered a custom from two stitch straps, like @DeepCmonkey mentioned

TSS are great! I have their cross-stitch in black and I love it.

Looks great. How is your UC1? I was about to order it a while ago, but finally I didn't pull the trigger.

I wear it quite often and generally I like it. Have a slightly larger wrist and can wear it easily. The watch is built well, it has nice tolerances and heft.
Classic series uses NH35 movement, and the case is a bit thicker. You can see the screw-in caseback here. As you can see from the image the bottom of caseback sits below the lugs, so the watch doesn't sit flat on the wrist.
All their other models with Swiss movements have thiner case, because the caseback is in the same level as the lugs. I want to buy some of their newer U1 models, because I really enjoy the complete package Unimatic offers.
Thank's, I also have "larger" wrist. Maybe I should buy one 🤔
