Join HSNY on Thursday, March 10, 2022 for a virtual lecture on Next Generation NOMOS Movements: Thin, Automatic, and Highly Precise, by Theodor Prenzel, Head of Design Engineering at NOMOS (Glashütte, Germany).
The March lecture will take place via Zoom and will begin at 10AM ET (GMT -5) to accommodate local time in Germany (GMT +1). There will be no in-person gathering for the February lecture.
The NOMOS caliber DUW 3001 could be hidden from view behind a stack of nine postage stamps. At 3.2 millimeters in height, NOMOS’ caliber DUW 3001 is thinner than almost everything else in the world of watchmaking that self-winds and is produced in large-scale series — and yet it is still highly precise. The successive caliber DUW 6101 with patented date mechanism measures only 0.4 millimeters more. How was this even made possible?
At the March 2022 meeting of the Horological Society of New York, Theodor Prenzel, Head of Design Engineering at NOMOS Glashütte, will explain the new construction principle in comparison to classical construction principles in watchmaking. In addition to DUW 3001, the lecture will also explore DUW 6101 with a new, innovative mechanism and double-sided quick date adjustment.
