A.LANGE & SÖHNE朗格在2015年SIHH錶展推出的這款Zeitwerk Minute Repeater,與傳統不同,它採用十進位的報時方式,更符合現代人的計數習慣,也是錶壇首創的跳字與十進位三問報時傑作。

此款腕錶的面盤上有兩個顯著的音錘,乍看會以為是2011年Zeitwerk Striking Time(具自鳴功能)的新版本,實際上設計大有不同。新款三問腕錶的音簧是圓柱形,且隨面盤輪廓圍繞,音錘是往內敲擊。此外位於12時的動力儲存刻度上多了一個紅點,錶殼上的按把也改到十時左右的位置。

除了音簧設計異於傳統之外,三問報時的方式也是當前唯二的十進位報時機制,另一款是精工貴朵的SpringDrive三問腕錶,但就純機械錶來說,朗格這款是全球首創的。

面盤左側的音錘報低音代表小時,右側音錘報高音代表分鐘,高低雙音連續敲擊則代表十分鐘,若是1點15分,便是一聲低音,一聲雙音,五聲高音。在12點59分時將出現最長的報時音,長度達到20秒以上,朗格設計了安全裝置,以避免報時程序與人為調校時間產生衝突,因此在報時期間,錶冠無法拉出,數字碟盤的更替也會暫停,直到報時結束才恢復正常時間。

報時裝置與走時裝置共用一個發條以節省空間,當動力儲存指針指到紅點時,表示動力儲存少於12小時,將無法啟動報時裝置,朗格的顧慮十分縝密。
