The Honeywell 900 series thermostats can operate between 24 to 230 V. So that thermostat can either be switching line voltage down to a furnace, or it can be simply operating at millivolts controlling a gas valve. It is not a conventional HVAC, where you would have 24 V AC coming in on our and being sent back on Y, W, G, O/B..  the only time I’ve ever seen these 900 series is over in Europe.

Hi thanks. This is a Honeywell CM907 thermostat. I should have mentioned it is for a gas boiler that runs my hydronic heating only no AC. Which is an Italian ‘Radiant’ brand. Im

Hi thanks I agree. It a simple on or off. Does  wiring  work with the Nest?, if yes what are the two letters I would wire them to on the nest?  Thanks

You will need a basic Nest thermostat, the one that uses AA batteries.  The wire connections for your heating will be R and W.

Yes indeed. The thermostat you have does not require a third wire for the power common.

@Popster 

You didn't say what the thermostat is connected to, and there is a high probability that it is a 220-230Vac device that is incompatible with the none UK/Europe Nest thermostats.

Please verify the voltage at the A and B terminals.
