A. Lange & Söhne Richard Lange Minute Repeater

The Saxony-based manufactory has enriched the RICHARD LANGE watch family with a timepiece featuring one of the most elaborate sound functions – a minute repeater, clas- sically executed but contemporarily evolved. With its white, three-part enamel dial, the 50-watch limited edition platinum timepiece is delightfully appealing, not only acoustically but also visually.

Among the wristwatches with chiming mechanisms, minute repeaters are the most challenging and interesting complications that precision watchmaking has to offer. They make the time au- dible with one-minute accuracy. At A. Lange & Söhne, they have a tradition that dates back to the era of pocket watches in the late 19th century. In 2013, the GRAND COMPLICATION ush- ered in an exciting comeback for the minute repeater in combination with a multitude of fascinat- ing functions such as the rattrapante chronograph and the perpetual calendar. Two years later, the ZEITWERK MINUTE REPEATER with its digital display adapted to the decimal sound for- mat challenged the innovative spirit of the manufactory yet again. The RICHARD LANGE MINUTE REPEATER puts the focus on the chiming mechanism as a singular complication.
