The A. Lange & Söhne Lange 1 featuring eccentric time and seconds with asymmetrically positioned large date window and power reserve at 3 O’clock has become the trademark for the brand and widely recognized. Impressive during its initial launch and somewhat of a fresh appeal to collectors, the Lange 1 is regarded as one of the most popular models manufactured by the firm. The present early example of the Lange 1 is accompanied by its original fitted presentation box.
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.
