Full-Cataloguing
Good to know:
- Silver dial in galvanic black with white Roman numerals
- Cathedral hands in rose gold, matching the case material
- Hand-engraved details in the in-house movement
- Known for weaving historical narratives into its timepieces, the present watch by Lang & Heyne draws inspiration from the legacy of Friedrich III, who in 1349 assumed control of Thuringia and Meissen, laying the groundwork for the region’s future resilience.
- Introduced at Baselworld in 2013, the Friedrich III model embodies this spirit of clarity and purpose. Its design is understated yet refined, echoing the ruler’s straightforward approach. The present timepiece, cased in pink gold, is fitted with a silver dial in galvanic black, contrasted with white elongated Roman numerals and matched with cathedral hands in rose gold.
- Each Lang & Heyne watch bears an individual watch serial and movement number, vary by production piece, in which the present example is numbered 69. The movement with hand-engraved number, together with the engraved balance cock and diamond endstone, shows Lang & Heyne’s dedication to craftsmanship to the smallest details. Even each screw is meticulously hand-polished and blued, with less than 15 produced per day. It is no surprise why the production count is so low, as the brand does not compromise quality over quantity.
