         I don't know how you produce (1.1), but here's one way, and one 
way to repeat it later:

----------------------
\makeatletter
\def\@eqnnum{{\normalfont \normalcolor (\thesection.\theequation)}}
\makeatother
\def\mysection#1{\setcounter{equation}{0}\section{#1}}
\begin{document}

\mysection{Introduction}

\begin{equation}
A = B
\end{equation}

\mysection{New Section}

\begin{equation}
A = B
\end{equation}

Later on...

\mysection{Appendix}
\setcounter{section}{1}
\begin{equation}
A = B
\end{equation}
