I also bought a Nicpress tool which the seller advertised appropriate for 3mm (1/8") Nicopress sleeves. Now, 3mm is 0.175mm smaller than 1/8" and I couldn't find the correct go-nogo size for it. Has anyone had any experience with metric Nicopresses? If so, can you guide me?

Only that there is a gauge to use. I have found the gauge in the Aircraft Spruce catalog. It is part number "P/N GA-1P" and is $11.00 in my 2012 catalog. I hope this helps you. Great question.
