The dance of the hours
Among complications and sophisticated mechanisms, high-end watches are changing appearance. In the search for beauty, innovation and practicality. In the wake of art and technology
The stage is set, for an exciting show. A unique “dance of the hours” is being staged by Haute Orologerie, among design choices and technological challenges; with a soul that touches on perfection. We firstly delve into the starry sky of Saxonia Thin by A. Lange & Söhne, where hands and applications, in a game of reflections, highlight the copper-blue aventurine dial. The case houses a calibre L093.1, only 2.9 millimetres thick, with three polished gold screw-down chatons, which are secured with blued screws: craftsmanship down to the last detail.
