Last 2006 the manufacture introduced a new escapement that functioned
at a less frenetic 21,600 vph, but even at that time tests had shown
that the AP escapement was able to running perfectly at 43,200 vph or 6
hertz-even which has no lubrication from the pallet stones, which would
quickly dissipate at that speed anyway. The omission of lubricant
solves problems which has plagued watchmakers as long as mechanical
timepieces have endured: gumming or hardening of the oil.
This fresh escapement will depend on an invention by Parisian royal
clockmaker Robert Robin (1742-1799). He created a new system in 1791
that combined the virtues present in well-known escapements during the
day, so-called free-sprung escapement and one including energy transfer
via pallet fork and guard pin part of the precursor towards modern Swiss
lever escapement as introduced by Thosmas Mudge in 1759.

Audemars Piguet has succeeded in securing the great things about both
systems in its new high-frequency escapement, solving the oil problem
and introducing a brand new and important component to the game: rate
precision. “.mehr sehen uhr replica und Breitling Super Ocean
