ZEITWERK
This innovative model was released in 2009.
Since then, derivative models have been produced, but the Ref. 140.029 introduced here is the base model for the collection and has already been discontinued.
Unlike other multifunctional multifunction models, you will be able to enjoy the pure and essential charm of the original Zeitwerk.
The hour and minute display is a digital display (disk display) rather than a general needle display.
It will instantly switch every hour and every minute to display the next time. With the conventional needle display, the hands would move at least once or twice every 60 seconds or 60 minutes, but
This model has the unique ability to instantly switch between up to three hour and minute discs every hour.
The display method of Grand Complications equipped with a perpetual calendar by disc display is an instantaneous switching type, which is the main model of Patek Philippe today.
It is a great accomplishment to turn this into a series product with a time display.
It is a privilege only for owners to be able to enjoy this excitement many times a day, which was previously only possible at the end of each month or year with a perpetual calendar.
There have been models that display the time digitally before.
His masterpieces include the retrograde minute hand type jumping hour created by master Gerald Genta.
We have Opus 3 from the limited production collection "Opus" created in collaboration with Harry Winston's masters.
There were difficulties in maintaining accuracy, visibility, operability, and continuous production.
This model achieves all of these four elements, making it a great achievement in the history of wristwatches.
In particular, the ``stability of precision'', ``visibility'', and ``operability'' are outstanding unique technologies that can be said to be the true value of the Maison.
First of all, the power control device with a remontoir mechanism provides a sense of stable precision.
Originally, the mainspring, which is the power source of a mechanical watch, has physical characteristics such as when it is fully wound and
There is a big difference in the strength of the torque when the winding is about to unravel.
This used to be a factor in the instability of accuracy, but the entire movement from the beginning to the end of winding is kept constant with appropriate power.
As a result, we have achieved stable accuracy with constant torque in any situation from 1 minute to 60 minutes and from 1 o'clock to 24 o'clock.
He is a top-notch soccer player who runs at 100% top speed from the moment he starts dribbling, and his ball handling, shooting, and passing accuracy are flawless.
There is a very small number of players who can play accurately, but that is the image.
This may seem like a difference between humans and machines, but the work of determining the final goal from the perspective of play vision is important.
I feel that the journeys that the Lange production team and the soccer players have taken are very similar.
Next, regarding visibility, the large window makes everyday Arabic numerals easy to understand for people of all races and generations.
The display method was not the result of a sudden, innovative idea; it was based on the outsize date, the Maison's representative mechanism.
The traditional techniques that have been cultivated up until now have been firmly followed, and this is an evolved form that applies them.
Even if you have farsightedness or are in any state of drunkenness, it is almost impossible to misread the time, unlike the pointer display.
It was originally inspired by the 5-minute clock at the Semper Opera House in Dresden, so from a historical perspective, it has a solid manufacturing philosophy.
Lastly, regarding operability, everything is done simply with just the crown.
Moreover, it is also possible to ``go back'' the time. You can feel the Maison's high level of usability.
This is because the two number discs on the conventional outsize date are operated using buttons, so they can be operated even when the watch is worn.
I am very impressed with the thoughtful operability.
Please try the pinnacle of mechanical technology that has been carefully designed and calculated.
