in A. Lange & Sohne | Sunday, June 15. 2008
With the new A. Lange & Sohne Cabaret Tourbillon comes a groundbreaking development 200 years in the making. The tourbillon was originally invented for improved accuracy but it also created a new problem, it could not be stopped. So while it provided extreme accuracy it could not be set precisely to the second. Finally Lange has solved this problem with the invention of the world's first stop seconds mechanism for a tourbillon. The mechanism for this is activated when the crown is pulled.
The Cabaret was first introduced by Lange in 1997, and may be best known for its unique rectangular shaped case and oversized date. The Cabaret Tourbillon's case is 29.5 x 39.2 x 10.25mm and is made in platinum or pink gold and has sapphire crystal caseback. The dial is solid silver with rhodiumed gold or pink gold hands and has hours, minutes, small seconds, large date and a power-reserve indicator(up to 120 hours) as well as the one-minute tourbillon with patented stop seconds. The movement is a calibre L042.1 which consists of 373 parts, 84 of which are the tourbillon. The watch is on a crocodile strap with Lange deployant buckle in solid platinum or pink gold.
