LANGE 1 "jumping date": press release and some first live pictures.
A new inner life for the brand icon The LANGE 1 has been the face of A. Lange & Söhne since 1994. It became what might be called a Magna Carta for the manufactory’s self-perception. Now, the new edition of the successful model has been endowed with a technically evolved manually wound calibre. It was clear from the beginning that the inimitable design of the LANGE 1 would be preserved.
It all started in October 1994, when A. Lange & Söhne publicly introduced a timepiece with the self-explanatory name LANGE 1. Watch connoisseurs were thrilled. The fusion of innovative design, outstanding functionality and immaculate craftsmanship demonstrated the Saxons’ courage to embrace change as well as their respect for tradition. So it was not surprising that the LANGE 1 initiated a trend and meanwhile ranks among the world’s great classics.
A new manufacture calibre – the 50th in the portfolio of in-house movements – writes a new chapter in the successful history of the icon whose family now includes 15 different models. Conversely, the characteristic dial configuration remained practically untouched. A slightly narrower bezel is the only visible hint of a modification. It adds openness to the face of the watch despite its unchanged diameter of 38.5 millimetres.
The familiar asymmetric dial with the outsize date display and the prominently positioned power-reserve indicator conceals the new manually wound movement with the calibre number L121.1; its development reflects nearly 25 years of experience. The result is a systematic technical evolution.
Quite a few things have changed in the new movement. Its precisely jumping outsize date display switches at midnight. The force needed for this action is slowly built up during a period of several hours. Additionally, the escapement of the LANGE 1 has a balance wheel with eccentric poising weights and a free-sprung hairspring crafted in-house. Beneath the hand-engraved balance cock, it still breathes with a frequency of 21,600 semi-oscillations per hour. The reliable twin mainspring barrel with a power reserve of 72 hours was retained as well.

All brand-typical quality hallmarks are readily visible through the sapphire-crystal caseback. They include the Glashütte ribbing decoration of the three-quarter plate made of untreated German silver; this legacy component already protected the precious inner lives of pocket watches 150 years ago. It provides the perfect stage for the eight gold chatons that are secured with thermally blued screws. The LANGE 1 is available in the classic case-dial pairings of yellow gold/champagne, pink gold/argenté and platinum/rhodié.

應該有個功能這裡沒提到的。據說當動力用完時,秒針都會停在“0“的位置,這樣從新調錶時就能更精準。 ...

芝麻链上就是有这个功能,看来这次移植到Lange1了

芝麻鏈好像是拉出把頭才會歸零,這個是當動力完全用完時秒針一定會停在“0”。 ...
reverie 发表于 2015-1-27 22:57
芝麻链也是走到没动力的时候回到0

六爷拿他的芝麻研究过,哈哈

這是值得研究一下。

如果朗格一也用了和芝麻链一样的这个功能,那一定会有动力截停装置。当停表后秒针在12点位,再次上链时稍 ...

這功能確實很有用,但其實跟拉出錶冠秒針歸零的意義是一樣的。
