The tourbillon, which corrects for errors caused by gravity on the watchpiece, is only found on high-end mechanical watches, like the "three repeaters". Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After becoming the Führer of the Third Germany, even if Hitler was not particular about it, it was impossible for him to wear only a cheap color, and it is estimated that he would not care about money, and it was normal to have a few favorite watches.

Now Zhang Nan was in a daze with the watch in his hand: the owner of this watch is Hitler, and this will be in his hand!

A question suddenly came to mind: "If you want to have a new strap with a new one, you have to choose another brand - A. Lange & Söhne will not have it!"

......

A. Lange & Söhne was also founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolf Lange and Söhne in Glashütte, a small town in the mountains of Erz, south of Dresden, and gradually established the area as the center of German precision watchmaking.

Hitler's watches were made in platinum, not because of special requirements when it was customized, but because A. Lange & Söhne insisted on producing only "the best watches in the world", limiting production to a few thousand pieces a year, and using only gold or platinum cases!

All pieces of gold watches are this model.

Unfortunately, there is no A. Lange & Söhne on the market today, and the brand no longer exists.

On May 8, 1945, the day before the Third Reich's instrument of surrender came into force, Soviet bombers destroyed the main production plant at Lange.

In 1948, the Soviet occupation regime confiscated the Lange manufactory, ending 102 years of ownership by the Lange family, and the family soon settled in West Germany.

In 1951, the seven watchmaking companies in the town of Glashütte were merged by the East German government to form the "Glashütte People's Factory", and the Lange & Söhne trademark came to naught.

Its real rebirth was not until December 7, 1990, when Walter Lange & Söhne, the fourth generation member of the founding family of the A. Lange & Söhne brand, returned to Dresden and re-registered the A. Lange & Söhne logo.

A Lange & Söhne minute repeater is already very precious, not to mention that it is also the watch of Hitler, a madman, a war criminal, it is simply a fork!

As for how this table got into the mine, Hitler had a "home" in Berchtesgaden: he had not only the "Eagle's Nest" alpine tea house there, but also the "Berghof" private holiday villa, and it is estimated that there were other residences in the city as well.

It is said that when the "Berghoff" was occupied by the American army, the American GIs looted a lot of items that originally belonged to Hitler, but basically they were silver tableware, candlesticks, carpets and oil paintings, and there were very few items that really belonged to the "body".

Now it seems that the items that originally belonged to Hitler should have been moved and hidden in advance.

Why was the watch, a personal belonging, not worn on his hand, but placed in Berchtesgaden?

There's a reason.

According to the confessions of Hitler's service personnel after the war, Hitler was not very particular about his life, and lived like a Spartan.

He eats only a vegetarian diet, does not drink coffee, nor strong tea or alcohol, and is convinced that meat, alcohol and nicotine are harmful.

For Hitler, money and property were only vague concepts that had no practical significance. His only luxury was to decorate the large room with real Goblan carpets, antique paintings, all sorts of valuable knick-knacks and flowers.

And it is said that he does not have many clothes, and he is not elegant, fashion does not mean anything to him: shoes do not clip his feet, and suits do not interfere with movement, and this is all he demands.

One thing is particularly clear in Zhang Nan's memory: Hitler never seemed to wear jewelry or watches, and the only ornament was the Iron Cross on his chest, which he won in World War I.

In fact, he had watches, but he wore them less, and Hitler also had a gold pocket watch that was basically just an ornament: he kept a gold watch without a chain in the pocket of his suit, but it seemed to be almost never walked, because Hitler often forgot to wind it!

Hitler often asked his staff or guests for the time, and he was always good-tempered, laughing at himself: "My standard timer has stopped again." ”

This would have led Zhang Nan to speculate that Hitler would only wear his Lange watch on vacation, and eventually left it in Berchtesgaden.

Now it's a little tangled: I really like this watch, but if I wear it on my hand, he's afraid of being cut when he goes out!

I got dressed and went to wash up.

When I returned to the room, I picked up the watch and tried it again, with a little tangled face.

"If you like it, bring it. ”

"I'm afraid of being cut when I go out. ”

"If you don't tell people, they won't know that this is Hitler's. ”

"But... It's boring not to let people know, and it's even more awkward to hide it. ”

Well, people say that they want to keep a low profile, but there are a few who can really do it.

Jenny looked big at first, looking indifferent, but when she heard this, her voice changed: "A few days ago, I deliberately rummaged through the warehouse, and found dozens of boxes before I found a few eye-catching pieces for you..."

It's a solicitation!

Gotta get tired of it.

Soon Jenny was a little out of breath and broke free from Zhang Nan's arms, "Don't make trouble, your hair is messed up, and you will see someone later." ”

Zhang Nan looked serious, "Miss Jenny Hathaway, this is a yacht, you can use the bathroom at will." ”

There was another bustle.

"Alright, let's get down to business. This piece of Lange & Söhne is really good, you can just wear it as a normal Lange Sanwen, that is at least seven or eight hundred thousand dollars, and it is much more tasteful than those other brands that can be newly customized now.

And when I got it right yesterday, it would be a minute before I got it right!"

Hearing Jenny's words, Zhang Nan said helplessly: "Also, you can't buy this thing, but you can't let others know that it turned out to be Hitler's, how do you want to change it." ”

"You can tell your brother-in-law and Brother Guan about them, it will definitely satisfy your vanity. ”

As soon as she said this, Jenny went to the bedside table and took another box that looked older, and after opening it, Zhang Nan saw that it was also a watch: a golden K gold case, and even the strap was a K gold strap with a bit of vintage, men's jewelry bracelet style.

"This one is not bad, it will definitely satisfy your vanity..."

Zhang Nanyi took it and took a closer look, this watch is much more gorgeous than Hitler's Lange & Söhne, not only the strap is inlaid with diamonds, but also a crown and a big N are inlaid with diamonds on the surface, and it is surrounded by a circle of cinnamon inlaid with laurel branches.

Don't think about it, it's not a Rolex, the crown on this watch is much larger, and the logo seems to start with the letter B.

Zhang Nan tried again, and the strap was loose and just right.

However, Jenny added: "It's best to wait until the second mine hole is dug in the second half of the year." ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, he asked, "This is also Hitler's?"

"No, Napoleon's, the N on the top is his exclusive emblem after he became Emperor of the First French Empire. ”
