完整圖錄內容
- With its "sky bridge" time display inspired by the Semper Opera House’s clock in Dresden, the Zeitwerk shattered conventions while upholding the craftsmanship that's defined A. Lange & Söhne for centuries. Symmetrical jumping hour and minute numerals – the first of their kind – are powered by a constant force mechanism to advance precisely on the beat. Intuitive yet ingenious, the Zeitwerk's time indication is a study in minimalism, with a flair for the unconventional.
- In 2019, A. Lange & Söhne raised that bar once more with the Zeitwerk Date. Building upon its predecessor’s groundbreaking digital time display, the Zeitwerk Date married avant-garde technology with sophisticated restraint in a way only A. Lange & Söhne could master. The 18K white gold model's hours and minutes discs are milled from solid silver, their numeral typeface tailored to complement the minimalist soft grey dial and rhodium-plated gold hour and minute hands.
- Visible through the sapphire caseback, the arresting manually wound cal. L043.8 movement animates this timepiece with extraordinary precision. Redesigned with a new and improved architecture, the caliber enables quick adjustment with the date corrector at 8 o’clock. To enable the correction to work independently of the switching cycles of the movement, a clutch uncouples the hour ring from the jumping numerals mechanism each time the button is pressed. The switching impulse is generated when the button is released.
- Rare and coveted, the present example preserved in excellent condition offers an opportunity to acquire a contemporary icon driven by tradition, and a vision of modernity anchored in artistry without age.
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.
