  • Catalogue Essay

    First released in 2006, the Richard Lange ref. 232.032 in pink gold features an hour and minutes with center seconds indicated by the firm’s signature blued hands. Combing traditional Saxonian watchmaking with a contemporary touch, the aesthetics are rather timeless and easy to carry. Powered by the manufacturer’s in-house cal. L041.2 manual-winding three quarter movement composed of German silver; it is a true representation of A. Lange & Söhne’s design language. Offered in “like new” overall condition and fresh-to-the-market, it is also complete with its full set of accessories.

  • Artist Biography

    A. Lange & Söhne

    German • 1845

    Originally founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in Glashütte, Dresden, Germany, the firm established an entire watchmaking culture and industry in Glashütte. The brand quickly became Germany's finest watchmaker, first creating dependable, easy-to-repair watches before going on to produce some of the world's finest complicated pocket watches, including Grande Sonnerie watches, tourbillon watches and Grande Complications.

    On the final day of World War II, their factories were destroyed by Russian bombers, and in 1948 the brand was confiscated by the Soviet Union. Following the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1990, Ferdinand's great grandson Walter Lange re-established the brand with the objective to once again produce top-quality luxury watches. Now part of the Richemont Group, its original vintage and modern creations are highly coveted by collectors. Key models from the modern era include the Lange 1, Pour Le Mérite Tourbillon and the Zeitwerk.
