Nomos Glashütte is an award- winning independent watchmaker located in Glashütte in the foothills of Saxony, right in the heart of German watchmaking. The company was founded by photographer and computer enthusiast Roland Schwertner in 1990 after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Its first collection released in 1991 included four watches designed by Suzanne Günther, featuring Bauhaus design cues and a smaller size profile that defied the more popular trend of large, chunky watches at the time. This allowed the designs to appeal to both men and women — something that few watchmakers were able to achieve.
The collection included three round 35mm case watches: Tangente with its retro vintage 1930s classic look, the simple and elegant Orion dress watch, and the smart, sleek and more traditional Ludwig. The final watch in the collection, Tetra, was an anomaly for the collection with a less conventional 29.5mm square case.
