a. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 watch was a nightmare to the engineer
From the technical point of view, the watch a. Lange & Sohne Lange 31 was a nightmare to the engineer. Non-not because the concept is difficult, but because the accuracy. You see that the Lange 31 has a 31 days power reserve (744 hours), divided between two mainspring barrels. The challenge was to ensure that the power to move in springs slowly unwind for the rest of the movement was consistent, if not the shows would go that is too fast or too slow most of the time.
Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic Watches
The recently announced Jaeger-LeCoultre Geophysic collection for 2014 is not only the beginning of a brand new line within the brand, but is also a re-release of a rare Jaeger-LeCoultre model from 1958.

The hallmark of a true luxury movement is that it looks beautiful from a quality standpoint,
Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon Spacemaster Orbital Watch
"The Amortiser" sounds like a banking industry themed super villain. But here it is a cool piece of functionality that you won't find on other watches in this price range. New from Ball watches is the Engineer Hydrocarbon Spacemaster Orbital watch, a mouthful of a name, but suitable for a chunky timepiece with this much functionality. I got my hands on this watch, which should be available close to the time you read this.Ball fitted the Spacemaster Orbital (what I will call it for short) with ETA's newer Valjoux 7754. Newer, as in released in 2003 (or so), which is fresh from the egg
