The **Nomos Swing System** is an [[in-house]] [[assortment]] produced by [[Nomos]] since [[2014]].

===== Overview =====
Nomos took the first step to being a true //[[manufacture]]// with the introduction of their [[Nomos Alpha]] movement in [[2005]]. But, like most Swiss companies, Nomos still relied on a third party source for the [[assortment]] [[escape wheel]], [[balance wheel]], [[hairspring]], [[anchor lever]], [[pallet stone]]s, and associated [[bridge]]. This essential component requires extremely tight manufacturing tolerances and design skill, placing it out of reach for most watchmakers.

In [[2014]], Nomos surprised the industry with the introduction of their own "swing system". Entirely manufactured in-house in [[Glashütte]], the Nomos Swing System was the final component needed to elevate the company to the elite ranks of watch manufacturers. First used on their new [[DUW 4401]] movement, it has since spread to most of the company's products.

The following year, the [[Nomos neomatik]] family was introduced, which mounted the Nomos Swing System on a [[balance bridge]] rather than a [[cock]] for a new family of movements beginning with the [[DUW 3001]].

===== Applications =====
The transition to the Nomos Swing System is ongoing [[as of 2019]]. It began with lower-volume movements, [[hand winding]] and [[world time]], before moving to more popular [[automatic]] movements in [[2017]].
