What an incredible Lange
Both design, looks, and the engineering behind it is stellar. To answer your question, I'm somewhat indifferent. I think I prefer the 12h time display the way it is now but would be fine if it were 24h too. It would be cool if Lange offered the option to choose one or the other.
ALS Zeitwerk: Thoughts on 24 h Display?
Dear friends, while contemplating with my Zeitwerk on why it doesn't find its way to often on my wrist, i was wondering whether a 24 h Zeitwerk would not be more logical than the present 12 h display. What are your thoughts? ...
Not sure I have strong feelings on that….
Why do you think you would prefer 24h? I would definitely prefer it if it were smaller/thinner - but I get the engineering challenges involved!
I find it more logic ...
If one thinks about how to measure time over a day, I find the decimal system the most logic but know that it didn't make it far beyond the French revolution and therefore remains a bit esoteric like thinking about equality... If one follows the 24h/day s...
That’s fair.
I guess it would complicate the wheels a bit - but not insurmountably. And yes, have spent a big chunk of time discussing decimal time with a friend recently - Breguet’s adventures and experiments with clocks using it specifically; I think the ship has pr...
24h display wouldn’t work for me.
Too reminiscent of LCD digital displays. Best, Emmanuel
Not for me. It’s a mechanical watch
with a gorgeous movement. And I want it to feel mechanical, not like an LCD display. But it’s a very personal feeling of course. I definitely understand that you can feel differently. Best, Emmanuel

I wonder if they could do this without making it bigger/thicker.
The current ZW has a single disc on the left outer edge with 13 numerals, to display the hour in a single window. How could 24-hour time be displayed? I can think of 3 options: 1 Somehow cramming all 24 hours onto the existing disc without reducing the si...
Now that you mentioned….
Good idea, Why not? This is supposed to be a “digital” display.
Magnificent watch, SchmidtSol.
I very much like it the way it is. You never say never and I know the Germans are engineers, but I feel that a 24-hour hour disc would be disproportionate - or a fourth disc unwieldy. To me, an answer to your question may be its difference to any other wa...
