A Lange & Söhne’s Cabaret is a declaration of the Saxon brand’s desire for experimentation and horological excellence. Just three years after the brand’s rebirth in 1994, a bold departure from their round-shaped timepiece was debuted, the Cabaret with a rectangular case set itself apart, with a proud display of its signature digital outsize date inspired by Dresden’s Semper Opera House clock.

Its bold rectangular case design pays tribute to the geometric elegance of the Art Deco style from the 1920s and 1930s. The present example showcases exceptional craftsmanship and refinement, with a bezel set with 46 baguette diamonds totaling approximately 2.5 carats, and is paired with an inky black dial. The hour markers, hands and date window are crafted from solid gold, adding to the watch’s luxurious appeal.

A striking and luxurious feature elevating the present example’s desireability is the exquisite white gold Wellendorff bracelet. This combination of white gold, diamond-set case and white gold bracelet is hardly ever seen. Typically, the bejeweled version of the Cabaret features a round brilliant diamond-set case, sometimes paired with a diamond-set bracelet. The present combination, coupled with its complete set of accessories, is an exceptionally rare and beguiling example of an already niche reference from the German brand.
