自古以来,人类便感知到月亮的阴晴圆缺,以当空皓月为主题的故事与诗词歌赋层出不穷。或是月下独酌,以月为友、对酒当歌,或是潜心而赏,感叹满月如璧、露似珍珠月似弓,无不意味深长,意境美好。
毋庸置疑,月球引力支配着潮起潮落,从而对地球和地球生物产生深远的影响。2015年,经过改进的葡萄牙系列万年历腕表双月相显示白金款(型号:IW503401),再次演绎月相主题,使之不仅成为表盘上的目光焦点所在,更是高级制表领域的一项技术杰作。
超凡精准,万年历月相显示
万年历月相显示是IWC万国表自主研发的一项令人叹为观止的设计,在机械腕表领域中,它的精准度尤其令人瞠目结舌。月球绕地球公转一圈需要29天12小时44分钟3秒,如何将这个数值仅凭大小不一的齿轮转化为月相显示周期?一代又一代的制表师们为此绞尽脑汁,不断尝试。传统机械腕表上的月相显示需要在相对较短的时间周期内加以校正。1980年代中期,IWC万国表第一款万年历腕表的设计发明者、瑞士国宝级制表大师葛珞斯(KurtKlaus)先生成功地将腕表中月相显示的周期与真正的月球周期之间的误差缩小到每122年才会产生一天的偏差。如今,IWC万国表将这项伟大的成就得以进一步优化,从而实现了月相显示无以伦比的准确度,每577.5年后才会累积出现一天的误差。
而万年历不仅展示月亮运行周期,还具有时、分、秒、日期、星期、月份以及极具特色的四位数字年份显示,佩戴者只需在“不能被400整除的世纪年”(例如2100年、2200年)的3月1日造访制表师,进行手动。
Since ancient times, human beings have been aware of the moon's yin and Qing Yuan, the theme of the sky and the sky is endless. Or the month under the sole discretion, to the month for friends, drinking, or painstaking and reward, sigh full moon such as Choi, Dew like Pearl Moon bow, all meaningful, beautiful mood.
There is no doubt that the gravity of the moon dominates the ebb and flow of the tides, thus having a profound impact on earth and on the Earth's creatures. 2015, the improved Portuguese series of calendar double lunar phases show Platinum (model: IW503401), again deduce the moon phase theme, making it not only become the focus of the dial, but also a technical masterpiece in the field of advanced watchmaking.
Extraordinary pcision, perpetual lunar phase display
The Lunar moon phase display is an impssive design for IWC's independent development, and its pcision is particularly striking in the field of mechanical watches. It takes 29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes and 3 seconds for the moon to orbit the Earth, so how do you convert this value into the lunar phase display cycle with only gears of varying size? Generation after generation, the watchmaker racked their brains and tried. The lunar phase display on the traditional mechanical watch needs to be corrected in relatively short time periods. In the mid 1980, the design inventor of IWC's first perpetual calendar, the Swiss national David Gorsings (Kurtklaus), succeeded in narrowing the error between the period shown in the watch and the real lunar cycle to a one-day deviation every 122 years. Now, IWC has been able to refine this great achievement,
The accuracy of the moon phase display is achieved, and the error of one days is accumulated every 577.5 years.
and the calendar not only shows the moon running cycle, it also has time, minutes, seconds, dates, weeks, months, and a distinctive four-digit year to show that the wearer needs to do manual tuning by visiting a watchmaker on the March 1 of the century that cannot be divisible by 400 (for example, 2100, 2200).
