The last classic masterpiece is the most difficult work

The last classic masterpiece is the most difficult work: three repeater table.
 
The apex of watchmaking industry, can offer the hours, let you in a variety of environments, such as at night can be "heard" at the time, without having to "see" table. In the end mechanical watch is how the sound sub-Times reported it? Clock to the sound broadcast, engraved and a half hours. The three asked the table even better to the sound accurately represent hours and minutes. To 1:47, for example, start the timekeeping institutions, can be heard a "ding", said that three times and then another "ding" sound, each sound bite represents a quarter of an hour, followed by two short "bite "sound, said the 1:45 plus two minutes. Three different sounds to let you know time and minutes.
 
In addition, it is particularly divided into two tones: the treble and bass. Representatives bass, treble the representative points, and the two tone engraved consolidated Zeyi said it. What is amazing is true: In order to achieve this result, the content tab promised a master in the watch division. Watch operation, continued to show time, the case form the core function to generate a return, the owner in the watch when the button is pressed, it is indeed time to read sensor information and store this information to mechanical , and then transfer this information to the timekeeping system.
 
Reported to the watch to the sound, the moment, about one minute time points, but in the meantime, watch continuous operation. Chime sounds stopped, form the core function of its subsidiaries to stop and resume normal operation. However, watch the master do not satisfied with the achievements, they all circumstances into consideration. For example, in the 59 minutes of the special circumstances, the minutes of the chime sound will be "too late" appears, so they invented a very sophisticated organization, known as "surprised" at the time when the cause timekeeping is not correct, immediately interrupt timekeeping sound.
 
This complex of features and perfect, is sufficient to demonstrate the manufacture of high-end watch industry has gone beyond the scope of, arrived in the realm of art.
