This 22% off code is still valid for Nomad: FB22
THANKS! Im going to go for it. Hands down its the best stand Im ever going to see. And after spending over $700 (42mm Milanese Loop) Its worth getting a good stand. Still $51.76 is expensive but better then $65 lol
what's with nomad and all these different discount codes changing every day or two?
they need to give macrumors the 30% back.... i'm willing to bet the MAJORITY of their customers are going to come from here.... so why not sell more with a better discount?
(and why did they pull it so quickly???????)

Heres the response from Nomad
The Pod has USB-C on the front and MicroUSB on the back so you can use either for charging the Pod up. The pod is deigned such that if you have it plugged into the wall or computer, and the watch on the pod, it will prioritize charging the watch first and then fill the battery so you know your watch is always good to go.
Deliver on Kickstarter
Hey, we will deliver on time, already got funded and know how to manufacture goods

That's the best one so far. Nice clean lines. Good materials. Like how the watch just slips on sideways and how the dangling part of the band is concealed by the aluminum base.
The Fine print from nomad on the pod says you should disconnect one complete side of the watch in you have a link or milanese loop band.... Not sure I like that
Technology and wood is poor design to me. It just seems so tacky. Especially this one, being half metal, half wood, like what?? Full on aluminum is by far the best I think.
Another basic kickstarter one. www.kickstarter.com/projects/watchdocksteel/watchdock-steel-a-colorful-charging-dock-for-apple
I have no affiliation just giving people choices
... not to blow any bubbles but to me, personally quality looks bad to be honest. For 20 bucks heh? NOT BAD... But i would rather get that griffin dock for 29 bucks lol quality looks good but its tall as empire state building in all of the docks i have seen lol..so im still waiting to see more docks to come out or ill get that griffin or nomad docks

I agree. I don't like the combination of metal and wood. For me it has to be one or the other. Ideally I prefer metal personally.
There was an article a while back where Apple said the watch would not disturb you while being charged. Another article suggested that the watch display would only activate when the sensors were in contact with skin. So wouldn't it be hilarious to have hundreds of stands on the market that do absolutely NOTHING!
Not really. I'm buying a stand for my watch to have a place to charge it without getting knocked around by my cats at night.
I'm not expecting it to do much beyond charging my watch. It'd be nice if I could reach over and check the time during the night, but I want somewhere I can quickly slap the watch down to charge and don't want to have to fish the cable out from between the bed and nightstand like I do with my lightning cable every night.
Nope. The induction charger that comes with the watch charges it. The stands just hoist the watch into the air for unknown reasons, especially if the watch refuses to turn on when connected to the charger.
There are no "unknown" reasons. The reasons are very well known. It is an organizational tool. Are you really going to think people buying a $1000+ watch want to just toss it willy-nilly onto whatever surface happens to be around? Like any other fine jewelry, this watch will deserve a dedicated place to be stored and it may as well charge it while it's there.
