Watch Wallpaper: 5 Amazing Views Inside the A. Lange & S?hne Cabaret Tourbillon

Now these exclusive images by photographer Jorg Wischmann are available as downloadable wallpaper for your computer’s desktop.Click on each image for the larger version. Explanations of the technological detail in each photo are in the captions.Like little arrows, these golden screws point toward the balance spring inside the balance. The screws are used to finely adjust the mechanism. If the duration of each oscillation of the balance needs to be shortened, milling miniscule amounts of metal from the screws' heads can reduce their weight. The opposite result can be achieved by inserting tiny washers. Lange manufactures these tiny screws to a tolerance of two micrometers and then plates them with gold.This blued steel screw keeps the intermediate-gear cock in its proper place

First time Patek owner-to-be
I am planning to buy a Patek watch for my birthday. Would the Geneva salon be the best place to see a wide variety of models? Or is there another location which has a wider selection? I visited the Tiffany store in NYC and was not impressed with the models they had. I want to see various Calatrava, Gondolo and Annual Calender models.Thanks.
