Catalogue Essay
- Since its relaunch in 1994, the renowned German watchmaker A. Lange & Söhne has been dedicated to perfecting and upholding the rich heritage of watchmaking tradition. From exquisite time-only models to extraordinary complications, each watch is crafted to the highest standards of excellence.
- In 2019, A. Lange & Söhne made a bold move into the realm of luxury sports watches with the introduction of the Odysseus. While retaining the brand's signature design elements, this timepiece features oversized date and day indications that can be easily adjusted using two discreet buttons beside the crown. The Odysseus's debut was met with tremendous success, resulting in global waiting lists and unprecedented popularity.
- A year later, a new variant in white gold with a subtle grey dial was launched. Accompanied by a sporty rubber strap, the watch further cementing the Odysseus as the epitome of a luxury sports watch. Its impact was so significant that it served as an inspiration for future releases, including the titanium-cased model and the highly sought-after Odysseus Chronograph.
- This current lot, presented in virtually “like-new” condition retains its original factory stickers and is complete with all accompanying accessories, is a highly collectible timepiece that exemplifies A. Lange & Söhne's dynamic approach to traditional watchmaking.

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.
