Review: the ZEITWERK MINUTE REPEATER – A. Lange & Söhne

Anthonie de Haas, Head of Product Development at A. Lange & Söhne, introduces the new ZEITWERK MINUTE REPEATER. For the first time in a mechanical watch, the ZEITWERK MINUTE REPEATER combines a jumping numerals display with a decimal minute repeater. The complex striking mechanism chimes a low-pitched tone for each elapsed hour, a double tone for each elapsed ten-minute period and a high-pitched tone for each elapsed minute. This way, the time as sounded corresponds exactly to the time as displayed. Visit us on Facebook:   / langesoehne   Find more information about A. Lange & Söhne on our website: http://www.alange-soehne.com/ The exclusive mechanical timepieces by A. Lange & Söhne are crafted from precious materials with the utmost of artisanal skill and only in small editions. They are guardians of a horological culture that is handed down from generation to generation and that began in 1845 with the foundation of the Lange watch manufactory by Ferdinand A. Lange in Glashütte, Saxony. His ambition to define benchmarks with timepieces of the manufactory is still reflected in every single Lange watch.
