The DUW 3001 is Nomos's first fully in-house movement, including its proprietary Swing System escapement replacing the licensed Glashütte lever. At 3.2 mm height it is among the thinnest manual-wind calibers in German watchmaking. The Swing System reduces friction compared to a standard lever and is the technical anchor of Nomos's independence claim.

Known service issues

  • Swing System requires Nomos-trained technicians for correct pallet adjustment; do not service with standard lever escapement tools
  • The first Neomatik examples from 2015 to 2016 had a higher than expected call-back rate for regulator adjustment; current production is reliable and the issue has not recurred
