Catalogue Essay
In 2020, Lange released two new Lange 1 Perpetual Calendar references, including this exclusive limited edition of 150 pieces in white gold with a sublime 18K pink gold dial, or as some may call it the highly desirable “Salmon” dial. Rather than utilizing an existing movement minus the tourbillon, the Lange 1 Perpetual Calendar is powered by the new cal. L021.3. The dial exquisitely showcases the perpetual calendar, with the month indicated via a ring along the periphery and read by a gold pointer at 6 o'clock. Though similar to its predecessor, refinements include integrating the day/night indicator into the moonphase and redesigning the time subdial to match the Lange 1 Moon Phase.
Numbered 125 of 150 and accompanied by its full set of accessories, the present example remains within its original guarantee period. Offered in virtually unworn condition, collectors are treated to Lange's exemplary perpetual calendar watchmaking artistry with this exclusive timepiece.
A. Lange & Söhne
German | 1845Originally 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.
