Judith Borowski, managing director of NOMOS, on watch functions and the relevance of a design that time cannot age.
The NOMOS brand stands for quality and precision. Its Bauhaus-design watches are handmade in the small town of Glashütte in Saxony and make an outstanding impression with a functional design that has been honoured with over 160 awards. The Tangente model is thought to be the most-worn watch in the German parliament. There is no other company in Germany that produces as many mechanical wristwatches as NOMOS does.
What is it that is exceptional about a NOMOS watch? What makes it unmistakable? What role does location play for a product designed for such precision? How does a brand as young as this one gain so much territory in a market full of luxury brands?
Judith Borowski, head of design and brand, talks about the company, which is this year celebrating its 30th anniversary and looking back on a 175-year tradition of watchmaking in Glashütte.
