A great Lange rarity, the present Lange 1A, reference 112.021, was the brand’s first limited edition and, as such, is highly coveted and rarely seen at auction. Produced between 1998 and 1999, the edition of 100 watches sold out immediately. The present watch, No. 81⁄100 of this strictly limited edition, was exclusively available in yellow gold and is further distinguished by its hand-engine-turned solid 18k gold dial.
A timepiece of extraordinary quality, the Lange 1A pays tribute to A. Lange & Söhne's historic pocket watches, which bore the distinction '1A' as a mark of ultimate craftsmanship.
Aside from one unique Tourbillon Pour le Mérite, the Lange 1A (reference 112.021) is not only the brand’s first watch with a guilloché dial but also its first to feature a solid gold dial. In classic Lange style, this highly luxurious model epitomizes 'stealth wealth' by using rich, precious materials in a refined, understated manner. Externally, everything apart from the blued steel seconds hand is yellow gold - even the date discs are finished in a complementary matte yellow tone.
Of superb workmanship, the caliber L901.1 movement of the Lange 1A is fitted with a gold escape lever and gold escape wheel for which specially hardened white gold is used as it is much more wear-resistant than yellow gold. The pallet, escape wheel and balance bridges are also in gold and individually engraved by hand. The two tandem-wound mainspring barrels provide a power reserve of at least three days and allow a progressive power reserve indication.
