Lange & Söhne has launched a new timepiece, one that cost about $2.6 million. Only six of them will be made. This timepiece was unveiled at the SIHH show in Geneva. This was one of the 7 timepieces revealed by A. Lange & Söhne.
I will be talking about the A. Lange & Söhne Perpetual Calendar Terraluna
This is another timepiece that is a true beauty, a diamond in the sand.

 

This Watch Features a beautiful orbital moon-phase display, but what makes is so special is that it also displays the moons location relative to earth and sun. It’s orbital moon-phase is accurate for about 1,058 years.

 

The Terraluna comes in a dazzling rose gold or impeccable white gold.
The case is  44.5 mm by 16.5 mm. The dial features 3 separate time indicators each one containing the perpetual calendar. The Minute display contains the date indicator , the hour display contains the day indicator, and the seconds display contains the day indicator.
If you look at the 15 on the minute indicator you will find the leap year indicator to its right.
It also features a power reserve indicator at the bottom of the dial, this watch has a power reserve of 14 days. The Dial itself is made  of solid silver.
The movement itself is a beautiful masterpiece.
A Lange & Söhne says the following about their timepiece.
Richard Lange Perpetual Calendar “Terraluna”
“OVERVIEW DETAILS
Apart from the hours, minutes, and seconds, the regulator dial of the RICHARD LANGE PERPETUAL CALENDAR “Terraluna” also accommodates the four precisely jumping perpetual calendar displays: date, day of week, month, and leap year. The patent-pending orbital moon-phase display can be admired through the sapphire-crystal caseback of the watch. It shows the current moon phase as well as the positions of the moon and sun as an observer in the northern hemisphere would see them. The day and night halves of this hemisphere are also discernible.”
A truly beautiful timepiece.
