A. Lange & Soehne 1815 Tourbillon Enamel Dial. In 2018, the new 1815 Tourbillon Enamel Dial is presented in a special edition limited to 100 pieces characterised by a white enamel dial. The A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Tourbillon Enamel Dial (ref. 730.079F) has a price of Euro 203,000. Pics, specs and video.
In 2014, A. Lange & Söhne introduced the 1815 Tourbillon, the first model of the German watchmaker to feature two patented mechanisms to stop the tourbillon while instantly resetting the seconds hand to zero when the crown is pulled.
In 2018, the new 1815 Tourbillon Enamel Dial is presented in a special edition limited to 100 pieces characterised by a white enamel dial.
Framed by a 39.5 mm platinum case, this precious dial is the result of an old production technique which requires great mastery and more than 30 manual processes. A detail that stands out is the red-fired number 12 that has to be separately imprinted and stoved.
Completed by classic elements like blued-steel hands, Arabic numerals and a railway-track minute scale, the design of the dial is intentionally understated to exalt the complexity of the one-minute tourbillon that can be admired through the large aperture at 6 o’clock.
After finding a way to brake the balance inside the rotating tourbillon cage in 2008, in 2014 A. Lange & Söhne combined the stop-seconds mechanism for the tourbillon with the ZERO-RESET time setting feature.
The interaction between the two patented mechanisms enables the watch to be set with great accuracy, for example by synchronizing it with a reference watch or a time signal.
The beautifully finished manufacture calibre L102.1 can be admired through the sapphire-crystal caseback. The state-of-the-art decoration is crowned by a diamond endstone in a screwed gold chaton on the fourth-wheel bridge, which is adorned with a freehand engraving. Beating at a frequency of 3 Hz (21,600 vph), the movement offers 72 hours of autonomy when fully wound.
Each piece of this exclusive edition is individually numbered from 001/100 to 100/100.
The A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Tourbillon Enamel Dial (ref. 730.079F) has a price of Euro 203,000.
