We are delighted to offer what is the very first A. Lange & Söhne 1815 Rattrapante “Homage to F. A. Lange” to grace an international auction room.

Launched in 2022 as a limited edition of 100 pieces of which the present example is number 85.

This superlative split seconds chronograph housed in A. Lange & Söhne’s proprietary honey gold, a patented in-house developed alloy that emits a distinctive and unique warm golden hue. Apart from its exotic appearance, honey gold is a durable and more scratch-resistant compared to conventional yellow gold due to its increased hardness.

Made in celebration of the 175th anniversary of the establishment of Ferdinand Adolf Lange’s workshops in Glashütte – setting the foundations of Saxon and German watchmaking the present 1815 Rattrapante packs a heavy punch in many ways.

Surprisingly whereas the brand had produced double and triple split seconds chronographs as well as a combination of the split seconds chronograph with a perpetual calendar with or without a tourbillon, it had never offered a simple split seconds chronograph until the launch of the present model.

The dial layout is different to other A. Lange & Söhne chronographs as minutes counter and continuous seconds counter are placed vertically.

The movement, as one has come to expect with the brand is an architectural, three dimensional feat of unbridled horological magic with polished and grainé surfaces and hand engraved floral elements. In fact the movement decoration is different to other Lange timepieces as here the brand got inspiration from F. A. Lange’s category 1A historic pocket watches.

In hardly worn condition the present limited edition 1815 Rattrapante is offered with its full set of accessories.

A. Lange & Söhne

German | 1845
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.
