Description
The 1815 collection is a reference to the birth year of Ferdinand Adolph LANGE, the founder of the A. Lange & Sohne manufacture. The more modern design got inspired by the historic Lange pocket watches made at that time.
It has some distinguished features such as the rail-way track minute counter.
This timepiece has a 39,5mm case in platinum surrounding a beautiful white enamel dial. This features an amazing tourbillon at 6 o’clock and a red colored 12 at 12 o’clock.
The engine that makes this tourbillon beat is the Caliber L102.1, an hand-wound mouvement perfectly visible through the sapphire case-back! A true piece of art!
The elegant black alligator can be fixed only around few lucky wrists!
** Limited Edition of 100 pieces only **
A.Lange & Sohne – bio
Founded in 1845 by Ferdinand Adolph Lange in Glashütte, Germany. The company soon became the pioneers in watchmaking in their region. After Ferdinand’s death his sons, Emil and Richard continued to produce the finest pocket watches of their time.
During World War II, they were victims of bombardments and eventually even got nationalised by the Soviet administration and ceased to exist. At the fall of the Berlin wall in 1990, the grand son of the founder, Walter Lange, revived the company with the help of Swiss watch manufacturers such as IWC & Jaeger-LeCoultre. The brand introduced their new collection in 1994 with success and by 2000 the company got acquired by the Richemont Group.
