It’s not every day you see an A. Lange & Sohne watch in honey gold, but this is one anniversary that deserves the honour.
In case you were thinking that A. Lange & Sohne has always produced watches that straddle the line between daring design and classically elaborate horology, it has not always been the case. When Ferdinand Adolph Lange founded Lange in 1845, the company’s ethos leaned towards the latter, with highly complicated pocket watches. The brand then ceased to exist following the second world war, but its revival decades later ushered in a new age of watchmaking, both for the renamed A. Lange & Sohne and the watchmaking world. For, in 1994, Walter Lange and Gunter Blumein presented a completely new collection of wristwatches, which we recognise as the iconic Lange 1, Saxonia, Arkade and Tourbillon Pour le Merite. And that momentous year is what the watchmaker is celebrating, with a limited edition Lange 1 Time Zone in Honey Gold.
