NOMOS GLASHÜTTE

Founded in 1990 by Roland Schwertner in Glashütte, Saxony, NOMOS Glashütte is an independent German manufacture dedicated exclusively to mechanical watchmaking. Rooted in the traditions of its historic watchmaking region, the brand combines owner-led independence with a design-driven philosophy. With distribution in over 60 countries and a strong presence in accessible luxury, NOMOS has established itself as a leading name in contemporary German horology.

Design

NOMOS is defined by its Bauhaus-inspired aesthetic, emphasizing clarity, proportion, and functionality. Clean dials, slender cases, and refined typography reflect a commitment to modern design principles. Beneath this minimalist exterior lies serious watchmaking: the brand develops and produces its own calibres in Glashütte, including the proprietary NOMOS swing system, a key component of its mechanical expertise.

Craft

With 13 distinct collections, including the iconic Tangente, NOMOS offers a diverse yet cohesive portfolio of hand-wound and automatic timepieces. Its vertically integrated approach ensures that the majority of each movement is produced locally, reinforcing its identity as a true manufacture. Balancing innovation, precision, and value, NOMOS appeals to those seeking refined, design-led mechanical watches with enduring character.
