The genius of A. Lange and Sohne once again emerged with the Double Split men’s watch proving that it can create incredible complications in horology just as well as the more popular Swiss high end and luxury watch makers. These A. Lange & Sohne Double Split is considered a breakthrough in watchmaking as it is the first mechanical flyback chronograph with a double rattrapante complication. Unlike similar earlier wristwatches, the Lange Double-Split can accomplish measurements for thirty minutes rather than the of the usual rattrapante wrist watches that have the ability to only measure events of up to only 60 seconds. Moreover, the chronograph’s minute hand moves in one minute increments which offers more accuracy than conventional continuous movement.
What also makes the Double Split ID: 18057 a technological wonder is that its newly developed Lange L001.01 auto movement with all essential-watch parts & complications are compact in a just 43mm platinum case. This movement is fastidiously finished by hand. This fabulous dial is silver in black-argenté w/luminous w/luminous rhodium hour and minute hands. This horological master work with a 48-hour power reserve is revealed under sapphire crystal and case-back on a matte handstitched leather strap w buckle.
With the creation of the a Lange & Sohne Double Split ID: 18057, Lange admirers again laud another technological achievement from the premier German watchmaker. As evidenced by this horology, the famous European watchmaking company skillfully combines state-of-the art technology with traditional beauty that remains true to the heritage of its father, Ferdinand Adolph Lange, when it established the house in 1845. It is no wonder watch enthusiasts hungrily anticipate the new models as Lange engineers continue to pursue innovations that are not merely pioneers in the industry, but also those that will serve the ever-changing needs of world in time measurement.

How my Business trip turned into a holiday
Are you aware of the new holiday sweeping the world called “Liveaboard diving”? This is an easy holiday for people to arrange, all you need is a bloat and a plane ticket! Liveaboard holidays are mainly for people in groups, or for families, it could get very lonely if you went on your own.
Wondering what Liveaboard means? Well in simple truth all it is, is a boating holiday. This holiday you simply travel around on a luxury yacht, usually in a warm location, such as the Maldives. Taking the boat out to see is a joyous experience anyway, all you need is plenty of food, sun tan lotion and drink. I was lucky enough to be taken on one of these holidays for a business trip. After arriving in the Maldives, we went to a local port where our “Yacht” was waiting for us, it bore the name “Monsoon” on it’s side.
I had anticipated a sit down holiday where we would discuss business; however my client had other ideas. One day of work was all that my client wanted to do, so the rest was just holiday time. After the one business meeting, we headed off to many diving locations. Diving is one of my Forte’s and i have enjoyed it through my life, so I was in my element. If you are enjoying yourself it is quite difficult to keep a professional mind on your shoulders. We were even lucky enough to go free diving with a Whale Shark, I couldn’t believe our luck.
Basically I spent about 7 hours completing business and about 13 days diving in the warm tropics of the Indian Ocean, not bad going. Liveaboard diving is a must for everyone and anyone, although it is very expensive, it is well worth saving up for. This holiday has proven to be amazing. Everyone has wierd nasty thoughts about swimming alone in the ocean, but as long as the boat is in sight, it couldn’t be more relaxing and calming.
Diving holidays and Liveaboard diving is unmissable, not a very technical word, but there are few ways to explain it, so whey not give luxury holidays a go in the Maldives!
