Is the name Glashtte protected?
Yes, it is. Not every company located in Glashtte may use Glashtte on its watches. After several sets of lawsuits, which were initially also directed against NOMOS, only those companies are entitled to use the town’s name who create more than 50 percent of their movements’ value in and around Glashtte. This court ruling serves everyone: it secures job in the town of Glashtte and guarantees you, the customer, the highest horological quality, to which we are bound by tradition. Today, NOMOS designs, develops, and manufactures its own movements in Glashtte.
