- The decimal minute repeater mechanism
When they developed the strikework for this watch, the engineers harnessed the principle of the jumping numerals mechanism: instead of with hands, the time is displayed with an hour ring and two minute discs. This allows three snails connected with these mechanical display elements to separately sample the number of hours, ten-minute intervals, and minutes to be acoustically indicated.

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.
I think this may be my favorite minute repeater. They've gone with a major third instead of these dissonant tones that other watchmakers use so commonly.
One of the ultimate grails.
Absolutely amazing! Geniuses at work...
That is just *insane* watchmaking!!! Absolutely brilliant mechanical engineering.
Absolutely awesome micro mechanical engineering. what a stunningly beautiful movement.
Horology at its highest degree.
Jumping numerals per se nothing special (ok too much electronics, I know) but when it turns mechanical and along with it a minute repeater... well where is the money to pay for this beauty. Remarkable watch
Wahnsinn!
