Wright knew he wanted link to add two things to his collection: a Patek and a watch with a link Tonneau case. He found both in this Gondolo. He added an link ostrich strap to add an extra level of sophistication. Though the watch has a day, date, and moonphase, Wright says he's over watches with a lot of complications because he "can't see all that." A reminder of the importance of good old legibility.

But none of this is possible without the clamps or pincers or levers or axe or link whatever your preference themselves link which A. Lange amp Söhne has fashioned in a surprisingly straightforward manner. Typical split-seconds chronograph movements include a secondary pair of spring levers that engage with the clamps once the split-seconds mechanism has been activated. These levers are meant to physically link push the jaws of the clamp down stopping the split-seconds wheel instantaneously.
