'Strange' thing happens to my tourbillon....
Today is the first time I let my tourbillon fully wind down. It reached the 42 hour mark since yesterday.
I pick it up this morning and it is still moving.
It stops at 8.45am and I see it stops infront of me, how beautiful 
This watch is time to my computer and when it stops, my computer time is also 8.45am.
It means it has kept accurate time all the way till the last minute. Quite amazing and it sounds impossible.
My Resonance tends to deviate at the laste few hours but not this Tourbillon.
Also, in the last hour , the remontoir is already not 'working' as it is rotating smoothly and not clicking.
So, I don't think it is the constant force at work.
Very amazing indeed.

Sweeeet!
And most impressive! The remontoir tends to kick in somwhere just after 30 hours have elapsed. I've never watched it in the final hour to see if it no longer is needed. Very interesting. Now I must wait 42 hours before I can report....
I wish I had a video camera....
Now 11 hours later, with my watch on the verge of stopping the remontoir is spinning more freely but still has a stop start motion as it drives the gear inside. The time perfectly in sync with my computer. Fascinating and amazing to watch. I wish I had a ...
I know how amazing the feeling is.....
As I'm typing, I'm listening to the remontoir clicking sound. So tranquil It seems like the constant force remontoir Journe use is getting popular and recognise. Lange has just use the remontoir for 'their 31 days watch'. From elsewhere I read , they rego...
CL; you are so correct...
I've sold most of my Lange population, but for my ever loved datograph, and completly agree with you. Both of FPJ tourb's (origional and dead seconds) and Resonance are heads and sholders above many other pieces (PP...) that are more expensive and not nea...
LOL! And I thought I was the OCD when I posted timing results of my Dufour's...
It's great to be in like minded circles... Thanks, guys! TM
