I played with them a few times years ago, but I forgot what the winding experience felt like. Pretty cool though. A gigantic piece, both the Lange 31 and the Terraluna (which I always associated with the Lange 31 because I'd see them near each other in the display case and they're about the same size).

Even with the special key for extra leverage I wonder if there’s a fair amount of resistance as the PR approaches 31 days.
