First or second revision, it really doesn't matter. Even if Nomad weren't already on the bottom of my list, I still wouldn't buy one because of the sleazy, bought reviews.

I noticed that, too, when reading the reviews, and thought to myself, "hmmmmm......" I also noticed one reviewer didn't seem concerned about metal hitting metal with the stainless steel link bracelet and the metal Nomad stand. That could be misleading to potential buyers.

Hi Macrumors Community,

I'm really sorry to say that these are indeed nothing more than flagrant knockoffs, and Nomad has no relation with Madsen Outlet or any other players in this counterfeit trade, other than being upset with them for violating our IP. It's unfortunate that knockoffs can come about so quickly. Rest assured that their product quality is nothing more than knockoff grade. It's non-anodized, the rubber and foam is poor quality, and the alloy is very cheap. The overall physical design, however, is great ... but that's of course because it's a near replica of ours! If you use a counterfeit Stand, we can't guarantee that it won't cause irreparable harm to your Watch. :)

Thanks for your support.

Already did! It's a long, slow fight though, as people will continue to relist. Our core focus here is on building out amazing, high quality products.

Someone had to do something to get stands to the consumer... since nomad blatently took money for pre-orders but them funded stocking best buy instead!

can't say I feel sorry for your so called IP being "stolen"..... I personally think it was just inspired.
 
Obviously, you dropped the ball on this one.

They sure did. I still feel burned by this garbage company. Not only did they change the design but they delivered to Best Buy while they had my money, as we all know. In the end I received my product but I don't use it because the metal on metal design seems to rub my space black link band and I'm not going to risk that to use their stand. Garbage through and through.

I bought this one on Ebay.. without the ugly cable showing....
It is a beautiful aluminum stand and I love it. The space gray perfectly matches my other space gray accessories..
