Lange 1
Introduced in 1994, the Lange 1 was the first A. Lange & Söhne watch of the new era and represented a culmination of what connoisseurs of fine watches associate with the brand's legendary heritage. The patented, oversized date demonstrates how tradition and ingenuity can come together in style. This useful display, inspired by the digital clock in Dresden's Semper Opera, improves the legibility of the date by about three times in comparison with conventional displays. There is also a pusher at 10 o'clock to instantaneously advance the date.
