Saxonia Annual Calendar
A N A N N UA L C A L EN DA R W I T H A LUCI D A PPE A R A NCE
The Saxonia Annual Calendar clearly and legibly unites a number of calendar functions. Apart from the time, it indicates the outsize date, the month, the day of the week, and the phases of the moon. An elaborate mechanism automatically recognises which months have 30 and 31 days. The display must be updated only once a year, at the transition from February to March. A UNIQUE MECHANISM
The patented Zero-Reset mechanism is a Lange-specific convenience feature. It enables fast and precise timesetting. When the crown is pulled, the movement stops and the seconds hand jumps to zero. This allows the minute hand to be precisely aligned with the respective minute marker, and the watch can be accurately restarted, for instance when an acoustic time signal sounds. PI N NACLE OF PER F ECT ION
A glance at the movement of the Saxonia Annual Calendar reveals the utmost in perfection. The delicately embossed three-quarter rotor in 21-carat gold and platinum oscillates above the three-quarter plate made of untreated German silver. The rotor is configured such that it never conceals the delicate screw balance and the hand-engraved balance cock.
