[home of watches]
[home] watch watch culture annual exhibition Pakistan always accompanied by 1~2 meter factory visit, Pakistan exhibition after the end of 2017, we were invited by NOMOS, first came to Germany to lasu and Berlin to visit their watches and design workshop. To tell the truth, NOMOS also has some time in table ring fire, and even many do watch Media Pro pocket to buy NOMOS one or two watch, and it is understood that the current brand sales per year market did not worry, the new plant has been under construction. All of these would not let me have a great good, may I wouldn't love to get together, everyone applauded the things I often wish to watch, originally the factory before, I just want to understand one thing, known as the watch industry's most "frigid wind" why can NOMOS with her desire of people? But did not expect, but also to their own down-to-earth planted a grass.
21:00
First day
Arriving in Dresden
This is a very famous tile painting gallery, it is in Europe once the oldest arena Hof (Stallhof), produced a 101 meters of "Wang Houtu" outside wall. Fortunately, the wall was preserved intact during the air raids in Dresden during World War ii. And friends, just crashed into a restaurant can get good tasting.
Dresden (Dresden) is Germany's eastern border of an ancient city, when the two World War, this is known as the "baroque pearl" of the city, was destroyed in the bombing of the Allied aircraft, only canyuanduanbi. After the reunification of Germany, Isaacson was restored, and Dresden became the capital of Isaacson. The city has hundreds of years of prosperity in history, splendid culture and art history, countless beautiful Baroque architecture, but by the time we reached nearly 9 in the evening, second days before departure to lasu morning, so I had to seize the night and in the morning on the second day rush at the ancient city of one eye, despite leaving me deep enough impression, hope to have the opportunity to come back.
Dresden is near the Elbe, at 7 in the morning, taking photos at hand since the scenery.
8:00 second, NOMOS glashuttee headquarters
NOMOS's headquarters is located in a small town on the railway station next to the two storey building, the two floor, open the platform, go out to see that this is the scene, there is a lot of emotional appeal.
At the NOMOS headquarters, brand core R & D personnel for us to explain in detail the ultra-thin DUW new 3001 automatic movement, this movement if the homemade escapement system development time are included, spent 7 years of time, the brand is at a cost of about 15 million euros of funds, so the creators of this movement also, NOMOS R & D department deputy director Theodor Prenzel, which is called as "a new generation of motor".
DUW 3001 is an automatic movement, movement is only 3.2 mm thick, so that NOMOS can create a more slim automatic watch, brand in the field of specially prepared 9 stamps, meaning that they built is the thickness of the thickness of a movement, very intuitive. This slim way is realized, almost all the parts are located between the floor and the 3/4 main board. Therefore, the big wheel must be thinner than the usual 50%, after all, to construct the space between the bottom plate and 3/4 clamping plates. The average thickness of only 1 mm. To achieve this result, thanks to handicrafts and high-tech in DUW 3001 has been a perfect integration. How about the accuracy of the wrist watch? The movement of the 95% parts are completed including NOMOS production, to ensure the accurate travel time is the most important part of the escapement, the gossamer is a factory after the end of the Schwarzwald commissioned NOMOS own design and production, to ensure the accuracy of the watch and not because of any less and slim.
What is the key core of homemade escapement is whether to use a blue hairspring, escapement and self-made NOMOS as previously said, the key is just DUW 3001 movement development. In the factory, we also see that the balance wheel hairspring adjusting part, the factory can reach only three people, and now this work can only be done manually, so with experience of the master clock less and less. Finally, DUW 3001 movement will be used in Tangente, Metro, Ludwig, Orion, Minimatik and other series.
The factory has CNC computer numerical control machine tool, the master in the factory with shellac adhesive escapement fork in Ruby part
In the other two buildings in NOMOS, we saw something interesting. For example, CNC computer numerical control machine tool brands are used, this equipment is also seen in the output of the factory I visited other big brands, I heard it burn, so in this relatively small production NOMOS brand factory to see, still a little accident. In addition, the master on the right in the picture is using the shellac, the red part of the grab fork, which is the mucus secreted by the legs of the butterfly, which is very viscous and very stable, and is an ideal natural material.
13:00, German Observatory
NOMOS's other factory in Guerra Souty is in the German observatory. The walls of the building have the word "CHRONOMETRIE", which consists mainly of the assembly of the dials and watches, as well as the final inspection. On the first floor of the building, we saw a wall showing and recording the honors NOMOS had won, including the famous red dot design awards. It can be said that Guerra Souty watch factory including the NOMOS movement and all other independent production parts, the watch is another important part of the design is all in Berlin design workshop completed within the distance lasu about 2 hours by car. So after 3 in the afternoon after visiting lasu, we drove to NOMOS by more and more people love the soul of Berlin design studio.
Arrive in Berlin at 18:00
The most German featured German cuisine and beer
The Brandenburger Tor in Berlin and the only Berlin wall in the city
Although Dresden and Berlin are regarded as historic cities, the impression is entirely different from mine. If the history of Dresden is still a spectator mentality, when I set foot on the land of Berlin, I am confronted with the historical heaviness of being borne by mankind. I don't know where exactly the concrete expression of this heavy feeling comes from, but in my limited experience of life, there's really no city that has ever given me such a strong feeling. When night fell, the genuine and brand friends to prepare hearty German meal, German beer for us, but when I see the city left in the Berlin wall and the symbol of Berlin, and the unification of Germany in World War II, has ties to Brandenburger Tor, I full pleasure immediately switch to another nameless the pattern, so I think, people referred to NOMOS say "Bauhaus style", this simple and neat, exquisite details and rigorous design probably only in Germany to do so perfectly, the historical relationship behind its experience is very large.
Third days 9:00 Berlin design studio
The appearance of Berlin design studio
Interior design studio
Berlin Design Studio Indoor and outdoor look completely different from the outside is a quite in the sense of building, built before World War II was heard; but to go into the workshop, is very simple and comfortable young people love the wind, is a look at the designer to the environment, ha ha, freedom is not loose, simple there are details. Understand the design of the people must know a basic principle, the more simple design is often a test, so all the way down to visit, found that this sentence is really the word poke heart, small to a digital scale in proportion to the size of the pointer, mm thickness, dial the choice of colors, shapes, case thick, over the connection table and watch strap to the ear; catalogue editing, video shooting, poster drawing, web site creation, display and packaging design and so on, all this is by Judith Borowski led the Creative Department of Berlinerblau, a design team of about 30 people together to build out.
There is a wall in the workshop, comparison of various colors for the designer of the dial, and compared to the final decision; at the same time, there is a wall is various details of the design steps in the draft.
This is going to be used in selecting dialcolor when the inspiration props, so each one appeared in the NOMOS watch the colors you see are not unexpected, is after the designers of inspiration, and long time discussion comparing the optimal selection.
The watchmaker in lasu development movement at the same time, the watch design idea of the work also launched in Berlin in an orderly workshop. In simple terms, the first stage is the creative department, product designers and brand experts to produce "inspiration board", such as watches are to be passed to whom to wear? How about the latest model compared with the existing one? After setting the direction, the 3D designer made the appearance of the watchcase complete and provided safe and firm protection for the precise movement. After the rapid setting of the watch case, it relates to the shape of the dial and pointer. In order to match the watchcase perfectly, this process needs many models. So in the workshop on the walls, there are many as shown above the template and the discussion, every detail is after repeated discussions, designers have repeatedly revised results. If everything goes smoothly, the watch is running well, the appearance is also very beautiful, when the model for the first time after the completion of operation, tick test series, lasu meter factory began to enter into the real production in the. Wrist watch design is, in general, a very complex process that often takes years and costs a lot of manpower.
The 12:00 new show and the grass I planted
NOMOS launches new Aqua series wrist watch
This year, NOMOS has introduced two new colors that have never been introduced before, the very eye-catching orange and blue, which you might think would be too good to match! Come, look at the official picture. It's not even young men and women. Men even have a formal suit. How's it going? Not bad! Most of the time we just do not want to see the real me take up wearing a worn on the scene, of course, is sure to be a bit more careful on the collocation clothes color, but this very bright color and sometimes it will break through your imagination, than the conventional deep blue, red dial more personality, more young and lively. Who do not want the young ah, you instead of pretending breakthrough in clothing, hairstyle, it is better to watch, at least never to go wrong, but also easy to have your label. In addition, the two dial color, as mentioned earlier, it is not the designer of a hot forehead is knocked out, according to the blue coast and deep sea fish, the oxidation of the final set of antique cars such as blue tone, we also saw these pictures in the workshop in inspiration.
NOMOS launches Club Campus brand new watch
This is in my heart a piece of grassland Club Campus new watch, can be seen from the name, in fact, the brand positioning crowd is just graduated, at the beginning of the occupation career of graduates, I will comfort myself psychology is relatively young, ha ha ~Campus three table, two dimensions, one is the 36mm. For the wrist relatively slim girl, the other two is 38mm, the wrist thick boys and girls can wear. I like the 36 one.
Look at the details, dark or light on the dial are Rome and Arabia digital scale alternate, with a Superluminova luminous coating, sword shaped pointer, but that touched me most is the only 36mm white dial, time scales and 6 bit small second hand in color more wonderful collocation, an orange it is easy to enter the customs, less ash is not fresh, the master heat waves, my little girl heart is always watching, this is the cold wind brought great desire gully! But honestly, you look at the above description should be able to control the thought, color, layout, what is absolutely designers do not know how many changes after finally forming, just reach the harmony. The watch case is made of stainless steel, paired with sapphire crystal, arc watch mirror and stainless steel bottom cover. There is also a blue dial dial and a charcoal grey suede strap. If a man wears such a watch, I will feel clean, live and feel good about it.
The end of 14:00 trip to Germany
I know a lot of people begin to pay attention to and love is from Tangente NOMOS, of course, this table is enough to represent the brand DNA design style is straightforward, excellent movement structure has let it has won 29 awards, but I was from the 48 hour trip to Germany are really starting to pay attention to NOMOS, I think it is, let me first on the German watchmaking station has a visual impression, but will not be the last stop. Bauhaus style, Bauhaus genre is not simple and neat, you can simply sum up, what is it? Let me begin to look forward to the next trip to germany. (map / text, home of the watch, Monica, Z)
