If your Torridge is 1 3/4" at the nut, then it is not stock; it was ordered that way.

You're right, Steve. I was a bit off base, and I apologize.
The stock Taw, OM and Tamar all are specified on the Brook site as having a nut width of 44mm, which is 1.732 inches. And 1.732 is not 1.75. Those who absolutely require the extra .018 inch (less than one-half of one millimeter) will probably not find a stock Brook acceptable. Perhaps that includes Luria, or perhaps that's close enough. It is for me, and I'm more accustomed to 52mm nut widths. (For reference, 45mm equals 1.77 inches.)
I apologize that in measuring my Torridge, I could not discern that same 18 one-thousandths of an inch. Thank you very much!
