EVERY Sunday morning as the clock strikes eight, Jayanta Sardar of Hatibagan, north Kolkata, comes down to his living room, takes out the 100 odd clocks and watches he owns and spreads them out in front of him. He dusts them, winds them, caresses them tenderly, lovingly for hours on end.…companies whose products adorn his living room include Omega, Courvoisier, Ben Nevis �� all celebrated Swiss clock manufacturers �� and Rotherhams of England.''Clocks are the “elixir of life for him,'' says wife Ratna, who extends unflinching support to her husband in his unique and fascinating pursuit.Anyone else just a little jealous?

A. Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk Striking Time in White Gold and Platinum (Ref. 145.029 / 145.025)Lange keeps on monetizing its initial success with the revolutionary Zeitwerk “digital” hand-wound watch. The new A. Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk Striking Time adds a chiming mechanism to the jumping hours and minutes complication.To make enough space for the new complication, the German engineers have increased its diameter by roughly 1/10th of an inch to 36.00 millimeters. The movement has also become a trifle thicker, now measuring exactly 10.00 mm.To make sure that everyone will notice the new function, Lange did two things.Firstly, the two gongs are placed right on the dial just below the signature Time Bridge component, which is made of rhodiumed German silver.Secondly, the striking mechanism chimes every fifteen minutes with quarter-hour signals sounding in high-pitched tone and the top of the hour chiming in lower-pitched sound.The second function must be pretty annoying after the initial wow-impression wears out in an hour or so, but thankfully there is a special pusher at 4 o’clock that shuts the chimer off.Due to a larger movement, the new version of the watch is also a bit larger than the original.According to the official specs, the elegant case (which is available both in white gold or limited edition platinum) is now 44.20 millimeters in diameter and 13.80 millimeters thick.Of course, the watch looks bulkier than its predecessor, but it is the price you pay for converting an understated masterpiece into a particularly expensive Swiss army knife.
