Way back in 2006 the manufacture introduced a new escapement that
functioned at a less frenetic 21,600 vph, but even at that time tests
had shown that the AP escapement was competent at running perfectly at
43,200 vph or 6 hertz-even without any subsequent lubrication of the
pallet stones, which would quickly dissipate at that speed anyway. The
omission of lubricant solves an issue which has plagued watchmakers
provided mechanical timepieces have been known: gumming or hardening of
your oil.
This fresh escapement is dependent on an invention by Parisian royal
clockmaker Robert Robin (1742-1799). He designed a new system in 1791
that combined the virtues of the well-known escapements throughout,
so-called free-sprung escapement and one including energy transfer via
pallet fork and guard pin as part of the precursor into the modern Swiss
lever escapement as designed by Thosmas Mudge in 1759.
Audemars Piguet has succeeded in securing the great things about both
systems in its new high-frequency escapement, solving the oil problem
and introducing a whole new and important ingredient of the game: rate
precision.”mehr sehen replika uhren und Panerai Ferrari By Panerai
