Minor Engine Immobilizers
Every calibre, every case numbered individually and consecutively: Why this is very practical

Glashütte, April 2008. Wrist watches generally are valuable for two reasons: one is for the money they cost to purchase; the other is immeasurable: it is the fondness people feel for their watches, the watches we wear everyday: some more, some less, but pretty much always for most.

If such a watch is lost, it is sad and upsetting, because the watch was meant to be with the owner for a lifetime. NOMOS Glashütte does not have any surefire recipes against such mishaps, but it has built in a bit of help for such situations. Every watch is individualized. If a NOMOS watch is found on the street and put up for sale on the internet or at an auction somewhere in South Africa, the numbers on the watch’s back can help it to find its way back to its owner in Chemnitz, Hamburg or Aschau.

For this to work, though, you have to register the watch you have just bought (or been given) with NOMOS Glashütte. In every NOMOS wrist watch box is a guarantee booklet. In this is a postcard that can be used to register the name of the Tangente, Orion, Tetra & Co. owner with NOMOS in Glashütte.
