A-Lange & Sohne Watches

Originally created in 1868 by Richard Lange, the household brand A Lange & Sohne was based in Glashutte, the forefront of watchmaking in Germany. Along its long course, it has adhered firmly to its incomparable commitment of producing watches of excellence. These meticulously manufactured and exquisitely embellished watches are heavily sought after by avid watch lovers and worshiped by connoisseurs.

A Lange & Sohne watches started to be connected with the royal family and enjoy immense popularity in 1898 when Kaiser William II gifted a distinguished jewelled pocket watch to the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. The brand name A Lange & Sohne was elevated to a new height at that time.

Unfortunately, the watchmaking of A Lange & Sohne has ceased for a long period during the Europe war when an aerial bombing raid wrecked the original watch manufacturing base. After the reunification of Germany, A Lange & Sohne began its watchmaking tradition under the leadership of Walter Lange, the grandson of Richard Lange, and the brand came to a new era of watchmaking.

In 1990, the brand has gone another re-birth when it was registered again. With the debut of some new models such as the Lange 1, the Arkade, the Saxony and the Tourbillon, avid fans of the mechanical watch movement and complications were embracing these classically manufactured timepieces pleasantly.

In 2000, the brand was purchasing by the world known Richemont Group. However, the enriching traditions of A Lange & Sohne and its quintessential watchmaking techniques still remain true today.

With a lot of components being meticulously hand crafted, the A Lange & Sohne watches are definitely impeccable works of art.
