Development of NOMOS Glashütte
In the industry of traditional watchmakers, most of whom have well over 100 years of corporate history, NOMOS Glashütte, founded in 1990, is considered a young but very capable manufacturer. Barely two months after the fall of the Berlin Wall, photographer and computer specialist Roland Schwertner registered the NOMOS brand in the small watchmaking community in Saxony. This is not the first time that the NOMOS brand has been present in Glashütte. The NOMOS watch company existed as early as 1906, but it did not produce watches that it built itself; instead, it sold only Swiss watches. The prerequisite for the addition "Glashütte" is that at least 50 percent of a watch is built in Glashütte. Today, NOMOS achieves a degree of in-house production of up to 95%. The word NOMOS encompasses various definitions. The closest to the watch world is probably the ancient Greek one, in which NOMOS means custom, law, and later coin. With the founding of the first watch manufactory in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange, Glashütte began its rise to become a world-renowned watchmaking town.The watches and movements of NOMOS Glashütte
Today's NOMOS Glashütte/SA introduced its first collections Orion, Ludwig, Tetra and Tangente only two years after their creation. To date, the exquisite circle of beautiful fine mechanical watches has been expanded by another four collections. They were joined by the Tangomat, the Zurich, the Club, and most recently, in 2013, the Ahoy. These in-house developed movements or calibers are named after the Greek alphabet and feature various complications:α (Alpha), β (Beta), γ (Gamma), δ (Delta), ε (Epsilon), ζ (Zeta), ξ (Xi), η (Eta) sundial. The sundial, of course, is not built into a clock, but represents an independent clock. A modern form of probably the world's first timekeeping device.
