Nomos - German watch manufacturer in Glashütte/Sa.
On 1 January 1991 the old traditional name “Nomos” is revived by Roland Schwertner from Düsseldorf, a former computer expert. He foundes the company Nomos Glashütte/SA Roland Schwertner KG. The name “Nomos” had previously existed in Glashütte, namely in the form of the Nomos-Uhr-Gesellschaft, Guido Müller & Co, Glashütte i/S.
The launch of the new Nomos is under a lucky star, because the reputation and the sales success of the new company grows fast. This is mainly due to their new model Tangente which will soon become a real classic of the modern watch.
