Opus Perpetual

The impressive size, special design and modern aesthetics of this truly majestic precision pendulum clock make it an absolute masterpiece of craftsmanship. The timepiece gives the beholder all the information they could possibly need, lending precious time an attractive face with noy only centrally positioned hands to indicate the hour, minute and second, but also an equally beautiful and stylish astronomical trio to show the day of the week, the month, and the exact date.

令人印象深刻 特殊設計 現代式美學機械掛鐘. 真實雄偉精密鐘擺掛鐘 絕對工藝傑作. 鐘錶給欣賞者所有需要的資訊. 借寶貴時間 吸引鐘面設計. 不只是擺中心位子分時針和秒針 還有美麗/時髦月相盈虧組合展示星期 月份 日期

Those who take closer look at the artfully skeletonised dial will discover a fourth calendar display underneath the axis of the month indicator, with four fields marked 1,2,3, and L. Horophiles will know immediately that this is a display for three normal years, and one leap year, which tells them that this complex work of art features a perpetual calendar-from which the Opus Perpetual takes its name. Those who adorn their living room or office with this mechanical masterpiece will, theoretically without any further action on their part, be able to enjoy the intelligently designed calendar mechanism until the end of February 2100. This is when the Gregorian calendar instituted in 1582. will require a minor correction to be made in order to program the indicators for the next 100 years through until 2200. Having a power reserve of 30 days means that the 601-part calibre 2051 calls for little in the way of attention. Should the timepiece stop when its proud owner is away for an extended period, the separate correctors make it easy to correct the day, month, and date subsequently.

This dial is further enhanced by a delightful three-dimensional moon phase display, on which the hand-painted rotating ball at the “12” bears a remarkable likeness to the mystical moon. Great importance is placed on the accuracy of the moon phase as well as on its appearance, however: This indication will not deviate a full day from the astronomical norm for another 122 years. A blue funnel-shaped sky disc provides a worthy background to the moon phase display, embellished as it is with ten small 0.1-carat diamonds to symbolise stars shining in the sky. Six further anniversary diamonds act as additional twinkling indices for the even-numbered hours.

The advancement of the Opus Perpetual’s eponymous calendar, which is made up of 130 components, is truly a masterstroke of engineering. For energy reasons, advancement takes several hours for other movements with the hand moving from one position to the next very slowly. This is not the case with the sensational precision pendulum clock from Erwin Sattler, however, thanks to its special design. Its movement features a melodious strike train too, which announces the full and half hours with sound. A separate weight even guarantees propulsion over 30 days. Its mass generates enough force to advance the calendar mechanism to the next day in just 12 seconds-i.e. during the 12 strikes at midnight-and also to the next month. The precision of the movement therefore remains completely unaffected.

Opus Perpetual 同名日曆進步/ 130零件組成 的確是工程傑作. 通常能量原因 其他機器分時針慢慢移從到下個位置必須花幾小時. 謝謝這特殊的設計, Erwin Sattler 精確鐘擺掛鐘不需要面臨這種情況. 這機器特點和諧的音樂 有敲整點和半點音樂聲音. 獨特鐘錘 保證30天動力. 只花12秒 體積產生足夠力量來推下一天日曆機制.
這包括半夜12點 敲12下 和到下個月. 機器精確度能不受到任何影響.

The strike train in the Opus Perpetual offers yet another special feature. In contrast to simple designs that have a countwheel, the elaborate rack and snail mechanism guarantees that the clock will strike the correct hour even if the hands are moved forward and backwards
without waiting for sequence of chimes to finish. A tubular gong provides pleasant sound quality. Should the clock’s owner only wish to enjoy its soft ticking, however, the strike train can be suppressed with a simple train can be suppressed with a simple hand movement.

Opus Perpetual 敲打機制提供另一個特殊特點. 相比之下 這簡單設計機械掛鐘有計數輪 . 精心製作的機器機制(蝸形輪和報時齒條)保證掛鐘能敲打正確小時. 就算分時針能往順或逆時針方向移動. (沒照敲打音樂順序完成) 管狀鑼提供優美聲音品質. 當時鐘買主只希望享受柔軟的滴答聲 (靜音) 可使用簡單手部動作壓制敲打機制

The beating heart of the precision pendulum clock is the calibre 2051, which is made in-house. Comprising 601 components in total, it is one of the most complex movements that clock manufacturer Erwin Sattler has ever produced. It goes without all parts saying all part are made of the finest materials available, finishing with care and loving put together. The wheel rotate between solid brass plates and are 4mm think.

An electropolated nickel coating provides protection against oxidation. To reduce the masses in motion, the 24 gold-plated gear wheels are spoked as much as is technically feasible and sit upon solid, fully hardened steel arbors with precisely milled pinions. 48 stainless steel precision ball bearings and four chatoned jewel bearings ensure almost frictionless rotation. These elaborate measures serve to achieve functional perfection, reducing energy loss to an absolute minimum. The George Graham lever escapement gas two agate pallets. A seconds pendulum with a 12 mm-thick invar rod, a steel-nickeled alloy with minimal thermal expansion coefficients and a steel element to compensate for unavoidable fluctuations in temperature act as an oscillator.

The accuracy of the pendulum clock can be affected by changes in the air pressure too, which is why the Opus Perpetual has a bilateral barometric compensator on the pendulum rod: When the air pressure rises, the aneroid capsules are pushed together. This causes the weights on the capsules to move downwards, shifting the entire pendulum’s centre of gravity accordingly. Similarly, the two weights are raised when the air pressure falls. The two tungsten weights (weighing 6,800 g each) for the gravity drive are attached to ball-bearing rope pulleys. These sophisticated structures have a positive effect on accuracy, and providing Opus Perpetual is regulated carefully, its monthly drift is as low as one or two seconds.

氣壓改變可影響鐘擺掛鐘準確度. 這也是為什麼Opus Perpetual 有雙邊氣壓補償器在鐘擺棍. 當氣壓往上時, 厭氧體 (厭氧膠囊) 聚集一起. 這造成鐘錘膠囊往下 把整個

The Opus Perpetual also take its exceptional aesthetics from its attractive case, which protects and houses the technologically impressive movement. Made in massive aluminium, the 152cm wall it 39cm wide, 22cm deep case will draw the eye to any wall it is placed against. The look is completed by a lively olive root wood cassette , while they pane of anti-refelctively mineral glasses provides a tantalising glimpse inside.

How does the perpetual calendar in the Calibre 2051 work?

萬年曆功能在Calibre 2051怎麼使用?

In the calibre 2051 by the Erwin Sattler manufacture, the central hour wheel drives the calendar mechanism. This turns on its own axis once every 12 hours, making it necessary to halve the rotational speed just once every 24 hours in order to advance the indicators correctly. To account for the peculiarities of the Julian calendar, in which months have different lengths and there is a leap year after three normal years of 365 days, a component known as a month cam is required. Ridges and indentations signal how long the relevant month is to the main switching lever, which “feels” the edge of this specially shaped component. Since February has 28 days three times and then 29, a four year wheel is needed too, which rotates 90 degrees a year in a cut-out on the month cam.

Erwin Sattler 製造 calibre 2051 中間小時輪驅動日曆機制. 為了正確讓指標(日曆機制)往前, 每12小時啟發軸能讓旋轉速度放慢(每24小時內一次). 認定Julian 日曆特點 (月份不一樣長度, 每三年後有閏年) 需要月凸輪. 主開關桿感覺邊緣形狀組件 (鑲和凹槽記號) 來表達多久月份長度. 如三年內2月有28天三次, 每當第四年有29天時, 需要四年輪來旋轉90度一年在月凸輪.

At the end of the month, the main switching lever works together with a toothed snail disc. In months that have 31 days, which are marked by ridges on the month cam, the pawl of the main switching lever moves completely normally over the tooth, advancing the date and month indicators by one position as it does so. If a month has less than 31 days, however, the rear end of the main switching lever moves deeper into the month cam accordingly. This makes it go back further, so the pawl moves over the aforementioned tooth after 30,29,or 28 days instead, thereby advancing the calendar to the first day of the following month. The day and month displays remain unaffected by this. The calendar mechanism moves one position on every day.

在月底前, 主開關桿跟蝸形凸輪盤再一起. 每個月31天 月凸輪的凹槽 主開關桿的棘爪完整移過齒蝸形凸輪盤 指示日期和月份往前一步. 如果月份少於31天 主開關桿後端移到深的月凸輪位置. 這會讓整個往後 棘爪移到前面提到齒在30,29,28天以後. 而是因此把日曆往前放在新月份的第一天. 日期和月份顯示沒有影響. 每天日曆機制移到一個位置.
