Made in Glashütte: 2.10. Inserting the barrel core The barrel core bears the greatest load in the movement. Together with the barrel drum, it controls the tension spring, which stores all the energy. When the watch is wound, the tension spring wraps around the barrel core. As the watch winds down, this energy must be released very evenly. This requires the finest polishes and precisely the right amount of oil. At NOMOS Glashütte, we use small oil dispensers with a metering device. The even release of energy is extremely important for accuracy. www.nomos-glashuette.com #madeinglashuette #nomos #nomosglashuette
