The Sincere Platinum Jubilee Edition draws striking parallels with the inaugural 👉 Lang & Heyne Georg SHH Edition launched in 2022. It features a similar combination of materials, colours, and finishing techniques on the dial and employs the same three-part dial concept.

The seconds subdial, measuring just 0.4 mm thick, sits lower than the main ceramic dial and royal blue silver decorative plate at the center, precisely fitting into the baseplate's recess with sanded outer contours.

Embodying timeless elegance and refined aesthetics

The harmonious combination of decentralized seconds, numerals, and hands creates a visually pleasing and functional ensemble for the Friedrich III Remontoir. The distinctive trigonal bridge is a standout feature of the Caliber VI-I movement architecture, revealing the meticulously crafted gear train beneath.

The balance cock features an intricate pattern, meticulously etched to further enhance the aesthetic of the movement.

Remontoir complication

Lang & Heyne watchmakers' dedication to precision and craftsmanship has contributed to the smooth and efficient power transmission of the movement. Positioned beside the escape wheel of the Sincere Platinum Jubilee Edition, the remontoir complication provides the visual appeal of the jumping seconds on the dial while effectively regulating and controlling the mainspring, resulting in a consistent transfer of energy across the entire power reserve of the timepiece.

The Remontoir operates by incorporating an intermediate energy accumulator that is regularly re-tensioned by the movement of the gear train. When the primary energy source – the mainspring, transfers its energy to the watch's wheel chain, the Remontoir's locking mechanism temporarily halts this energy flow, redirecting it into an intermediate spring.

This intermediate spring then powers the remaining gears up to the escapement, which regulates timekeeping. A control element moving with the gear train activates the locking mechanism at regular intervals, ensuring a steady and precise release of energy. This process not only keeps the watch running smoothly but also results in a jumping seconds display on the dial.
