Designer
Jörg Hysek
Jörg Hysek left Rolex and Seiko's European studios to build a design practice in Geneva, giving houses such as Vacheron Constantin, Breguet, Seiko and TAG Heuer their sculptural, architecture-led cases before founding his own brand, HD3.
Historical significance
Nomos Glashütte Club 41 mm Skeletonised Ceramic sits within Nomos Glashütte's Club line, introduced in 1990. It carries the house codes established since 1990 — ceramic case, skeletonised dial and high-beat automatic — and is one of the references collectors use to date the evolution of the collection.
Interesting facts
- The bracelet tapers across its length, which is why the profile looks thinner on the wrist than the specification suggests.
- The movement's bridges are decorated even where they will never be seen once the watch is cased.

Brand history
Nomos Glashütte has spent more than 36 years refining a single idea: a watch should outlive its owner. From the earliest workshop pieces to today's Tangente, the house has balanced technical ambition with a recognisable design language, and its collections remain among the most closely followed by collectors worldwide.
Roland Schwertner established Nomos Glashütte in 1990, working from Germany at a time when precision was measured by hand. The founder's obsession with finishing and accuracy still defines every Nomos Glashütte calibre produced today.
