Today we proudly take you behind the scenes at NOMOS Glashütte. Known for their unique design language, NOMOS Glashütte is one of very few independent watchmakers that not only produces its own calibers in-house, but also produces their very own escapementEscapement The escapement is a mechanism in a mechanical watch movement that regulates the release of energy from the mainspring and keeps the watch ticking at a steady rate. The escapement is made up of two main components: the escape wheel and the pallet fork. The escapement is responsible for the ticking sound of the watch, and it ensures that the watch runs at a consistent rate. As the escape wheel rotates forward, it locks and unlocks with the pallet fork, allowing a small amount of energy from the mainspring to be released. This causes the balance wheel to oscillate and the watch to 'tick'. [Learn More]. In this video tour, we take you behind the scenes at NOMOS. We start our journey in the Production Hall, and also have a closer look at what happens at their Chronometrie up in the hills of Glashütte. Click below to view the full video:
