Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk Minute Repeater ( 2015 ).

 
 By: amanico : December 11th, 2019-14:14
Just two pictures of this Zeitwerk which was unveiled in 2015. As always with the Zeitwerk, I find the backside more interesting than the dial side. But I have to say that even if I admit it is an original watch, I am not a big fan of it. What do you thin...  

I’m a big fan of a ZW...

It’s a family I wish to own in the ALS collection. I’m not a big fan of the price (especially this MR, lol) or size though but that’s because my wrist is smallish.

Probably my favorite Lange!

A creative complication that makes the watch look unlike anything else both front and back. The only issue I would have with the Zeitwerk is the size, if considering one for myself. But I think the dial side is great as well. From the videos I've seen of ... 

Thick and heavy on a thin strap...

Definitely better suited as a special occasion watch than a daily. Plus it's very difficult to wind. I tried to make it a daily wearing watch and decided it was too difficult! Most buyers would be happy to have it as a special occasion piece. Definitely a... 

Most welcome! [nt]

IMHO Jumping Second, Lange1 Daymatic, Triple Split and Zeitwerk Lumen Date (202x release year) are my must have. But out of 4 , 3 is a must, zeitwerk is totally replaceable

You'll get tired of winding that ZW on a daily basis...

Very thick spring, difficult to wind. Doesn't fit under shirt cuffs. Heavy, with a thin strap not evenly distributing the weight.

Honestly, think it can be a daily, but...

I can see how some would say that, Patrick! You can always get a watch winder. Not me though! I love winding it. If the dress shirt is a barrel sleeve it would be tough. French cuff—no issue. Lastly, a deployant buckle helps with weight distribution.

How does the watch sound?

I like the idea that it is a decimal repeater. Actually more straight forward to comprehend once you get used to the chiming method.

A absolute dream ALS imho .

Had the chance to strap one on the wrist a few years ago at the last Paris GTG . Amazing watch

Late to the club

I am thinking about the acquistion of a ZW MR seriously. The complication is fascinating and the design uniqe. The prize is less fascinating... ;-) Since I like to wear all my watches in daily life and not just on special occasions or at home my main issu...
