And well done on this very astute purchase! I too have purchased one but due to the lockdown in Malaysia, I am unable to collect mine from Singapore.
I too have been following the Lambda since November 2013 when I was shown it at Salon QP in London and for many years toyed with the prospect of owning the 39mm version. I would have loved it if the steel version was made in 39mm instead of 40.5mm but I guess this size makes the watch even more unique and is a compromise between the 39mm and 42mm standard versions.

Why I bought the Lambda 175 Steel
By: chintu : January 16th, 2021-04:08
There are times when you look at a watch and the imprint on your mind does not leave you after that. The Nomos Lambda has been a watch that had captured my attention way back in 2013 when it was first launched in precious metals and then in a slightly dif...

Which dial color have you chosen?
Great review -- thank you!

Of course I was compelled to see what was for sale on this model: absolutely no listings on Chrono24, and one 39mm Gold listed on WatchRecon! Sold out on the Nomos site.
No further Lambda in steel likely

In a very recent interview with Ace Jewellers, the Nomos spokesperson Martina Etti has stated that the Lambda 175 in steel was an exception and that there would be no regular production of Lambda in steel. Interview link below

Thanks. Perhaps Lux in Steel is a possibility
By: chintu : January 16th, 2021-07:35
I think the Lux could be released in Steel as part of the 175 series. This is an interesting watch with DUW2002, a tonneau shaped caliber. An interesting quirk in Nomos dials is the numbers. Wherever hours are numbered , it is a 2,4,8,10,12 layout instead...
An update on the power reserve
By: chintu : January 17th, 2021-18:34
This time I let the power run down fully and, yes; just as I thought the Lambda runs for 4hours and 30 mins below the zero mark!! So in effect it is almost a 90 hour power reserve. And even at the zero power reserve, the watch had not dropped its chronome...
