After days of strategic teasing on social media, today Lange revealed its first-ever steel luxury sports watch with the A. Lange Sohne Odysseus. Lining up for a fat slice of this highly lucrative and equally populated market segment would be no news in itself - but the fact that it is Lange we are talking about, the brand that has [...]

With the release of the A. Lange Sohne Lange 1 Tourbillon 25 Anniversary watch, Langes run of 10 special editions released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the companys re-foundation following German reunification comes to an end. As a lover of German brands, in general, but non [...]

For a watch brand of A. Lange Sohnes status, event sponsorship is a big deal. Choosing to align such a prestigious name with anything is not a decision taken lightly, and once that alignment has been made, the inevitable expectation is that the partnership and the associated event(s) will run like clockwork. The [...]

The latest version of the intellectually-stimulating (for watch collectors that is) A. Lange Sohne Richard Lange Jumping Seconds comes with a rare black dial. It is the reference 252.029 and is one of A. Lange Sohnes new watches that was debuted at SIHH 2019. The Richard Lange Jumping Seconds (we went-hands on with an earlier model with a white dial he [...]

There are but a few things we watch enthusiasts can all agree on, but any of us would be hard pressed to argue against the fact that A. Lange Sohne likes a challenge. In its established modus operandi, the Saxon luxury watch manufacture spends years designing its latest extremely complicated watch, spends just as long [...]

The Lange 1 was introduced in 1994. Overnight, it became the benchmark and standard-bearer for Saxon watchmaking. For its 25th anniversary, A. Lange Sohne has released the Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual Calendar 25th Anniversary Watch. Lange is [...]

Fawning over an A. Lange Sohne watch is not a rare experience for me - even if actually being able to handle some of their most impressive creations is. The storied German watchmaker always puts so much personal pride in its most elaborate products that it can be hard not to agree with their team members [...]

For 2019, German A. Lange Sohne finally introduces a refresh of the acclaimed Zeitwerk that helps make this mechanical digital watch both more modern and more practical. Since the first version of Zeitwerk, which was originally introduced in 2009, the 2019 ref. 148.038 Zeitwerk Date is the biggest update of the perennial favorite. Until 2019, newer versions of th [...]

Germanuber watchmaker A. Lange Sohne has just released a new version of its mega Datograph Perpetual Tourbillon watch. The first version, in platinum and with a black dial as we saw hands-on here, was released in 2016. It was a limited edition of 100, and it was snapped up quickly by well-heeled La [...]

The rapid-fire release season is upon us, and SIHH 2019 will see a new addition to the Langematik range. The new A. Lange Sohne Langematik Perpetual Honey Gold watch does not improve on previous iterations technically, but it gets a big update in aesthetics. The use of Langes exclusive H [...]

German brand A. Lange Sohne is just one of those brands that you can reliably expect to be impressed by; they have a reputation for crafting highly complicated watches to the highest level of quality and refinement. This year we see a number predictably lovely pieces, among which is the?A. Lange S [...]

Times flies. This year, the Zeitwerk celebrates its 10th anniversary. To mark this special occasion, A. Lange Sohne is introducing an all-new model which has a very simple but crucial complication to the collection. This is the new A. Lange Sohne Zeitwerk Date. Hard to imagine, but this is actually the first Zeitwerk watch to feature the da [...]

The phrase modern icon of watchmaking gets thrown around often, but is there anything else that you would use to describe the Lange 1? Didnt think so. The modern A. Lange Sohne that we know today presented its first watches 25 years ago in 1994. There were four: the Saxonia, the Arkade, the Tourbillon Pour [...]

Next year, in 2019, A. Lange Sohnes Datograph will be 20 years old, but ask almost anyone at all and they will say that it remains no less impressive today. It might be too nitpicky to point out that its difficult to operate in low light, but while a smattering of lume on the dial is enough to tell the ti [...]

The people at A. Lange Sohne get their kicks by doing things that others in the world of horology havent yet. To some who arent familiar with such competition between mechanical watchmakers, this pursuit of technical novelty at any cost might seem anywhere from quaint to queer. Does the world need a roughly $150,000 chronograph timepiece because it contains two sets of [...]

The tourbillon version of the A. Lange Sohne 1815 watch introduced four years ago gets updated today with an enamel dial. In a platinum case, the new A. Lange Sohne 1815 Tourbillon Enamel Dial watchs most prominent feature is still the large tourbillon on the otherwise elegantly simple face. The white enamel, however, should make the contrast between the [...]

A well-founded criticism of haute horology watchmakers is a lack of creative expression-there are no qualms about the beauty of the timepieces they produce, but it can be frustrating when watches share the same stoic, traditional aesthetic. Its therefore refreshing to see deviations from the norm, no matter how slight they may be. A. [...]

I am compelled to restrain myself each time I embark on reviewing a watch from A. Lange Sohne. The brand is so deeply appealing almost universally to serious watch enthusiasts that it can become a daunting task to fully capture the entirety of any given model in a watch review. I will do my best to spend most of my time on the watch itself, which in this cas [...]

Exclusively for the serious watch collector, one of the most compelling watches (in my opinion) debuted at SIHH 2018 is the?1815 Homage To Walter Lange (originally debuted on here) produced by Glashutte, Germany-based A. Lange Sohne. The A. Lange Sohne 1815 Homage to Walter Lange introduces a quirky complication in a very limited edition of timepieces [...]

Back in 2004,?Glashutte based manufacturer?A. Lange Sohne created the first mechanical split-seconds chronograph in the world capable of taking a comparative time measurement of up to 30 minutes. It achieved this via the use of an additional rattrapante hand (a French word originating from the verb?rattraper,?whose meaning is the act of recovering or catching-up) to the [...]
