The Company


Hallo, I am Rainer Nienaber,
may I help you?



In the workshop which is equipped with all the modern facilities, watches and clocks are made with great care
and handicraft as special execution for the customer.
Since almost no parts are produced to be kept on stock,
the customer can have his ideas of design and construction realized. Thus, he can be sure to get a unique item to fit harmoniously into his environment.
