wearability of the 44mm Zeitwerk Striking Time

Mar 17, 2019,15:39 PM
 

Can anyone comment on the size/fit/feel of this watch?  I really want one but I I had a Panerai Submersible and got rid of it just because it was too big and bulky (on my 19.5 cm wrist). I am considering trading it for my  Patek 5990.

Look at the tessellation in the background...

What is the background? A tablecloth? It's a fine example of wonderful collection of tessellating shapes! A beautiful collection of all the Zeitwerks in all the metals (except YG). Standard ZW in WG, Striking Time ZW in PT, and Minute Repeater ZW in RG (o... 

An eye for Escher!

Very good at identifying the background, with all those distracting timepieces on it. The background is, in fact, an original MC Escher mezzotint circa 1951, Boole #373, Mosaic I / Plane Filling I. Escher is yet another of my weaknesses. ;-)

Oh, that's an Escher??!!

I love Escher! I had inexpensive Escher prints and a vintage poster when I was in college. I'm familiar with his tessellation designs, but not that one. I guess I remember the more generic birds and fishes designs. That is awesome! And an awesome other ho... 

Thank you

Escher was and remains my first passion. I have a few. All originals, most signed. Mezzotints, woodcuts, lithos, and a few drawings. If you have a particular favourite...like any collector, I love to show off.

Love them all three

I've tried the black dial one on at Wempe's in midtown last week, very tempting...

From the moment

I first saw the announcement, and later the Watchtime cover, I had to have one. I'm a Lange fan, and have a few pieces, but the Zeitwerk, to me, is what real innovation and horological are about. Moreover a design masterpiece. So, my unbiased opinion 😉 Go... 

Hear hear! Can't praise it enough either...

True innovation before innovation even became a buzzword. So good!

Handwerkskunst

I must admit much of my love for Lange is in their clean lines, sophisticated aesthetics, and a lack of "bling." The handwerkskunst pieces demonstrate real skill, but they are not for my eye. I actually prefer the look of the Striking Time to the Decimal ...

ZW ST is big and bulky, but my wrist (154mm) is smaller than yours, so it might feel better on yours...
